PERSONAL TRAINING FOR FITNESS & MARTIAL ARTS

What are the benefits of doing one-on-one or buddy personal training sessions?

Any and all of them. We have certified experienced coaches that are available to do one-on-one and buddy training in Muay Thai, Kickboxing, Jiu Jitsu, Mixed Martial Arts, as well as Fitness/Sports Performance. We also do private lessons for the kids in our Growing Gorillas Jiu Jitsu program. Where as most people think of personal training as being exclusive to general fitness and physical appearance, most of our martial arts athletes utilize PT sessions to focus and improve on their individual game and skill set.

The first step is to meet with one of our fitness and/or martial arts coaches so that we can find out more about YOU. What is your exercise/training history, do you have any medical conditions we need to know about, how much time are you wanting to dedicate to training, what kind of timeline are we on, etc. Having a clear-cut idea of what you want and how we can get there is not only the first step but the most important one.

In addition to mapping out your path and ensuring we set you up with a successful game plan, it’s important that you meet with your coach so that you can build rapport and make sure you feel comfortable with him or her. There’s a reason it’s called PERSONAL training. You’re going to develop a relationship with your coach, so let’s make sure you’re a good fit for each other.

Buddy sessions are a fantastic way to save some money while still getting the personal touch and attention of a pt session. If you have a friend, family member, or a training partner that has common goals, you are welcome to share your personal training sessions together. We discount these sessions, so a lot of our students have found that pairing up with another athlete allows them to get the benefits of personal training while still working within their budget. 

The only prerequisite for buddy sessions is that you and your partner have similar goals (and for martial arts it helps if you are at a similar skill level).

A LOT. Most personal trainers use your time together to “put you through a workout”, walking you randomly between machines and stations that are available for use. That is not personal training, and far from what we do at SBG. After you and your coach determine what you are trying to accomplish, we’ll map out a guide on how to meet your goals as efficiently as possible. Along the journey your coach will not only guide you through the customized workouts, but also hold you accountable every step of the way.
