Fitness thru martial arts
MARTIAL arts can help us defend ourselves from danger but to some, this form of sport can be intimidating.
Limitless Fitness and Martial Arts, which opened in February 2017, seeks to provide a fun and relaxed venue for families or individuals who want to get fit and healthy.
Marc Alexander F. Lim, owner of Limitless Fitness and Martial Arts, said people would tend to get intimidated with certain things related to Ultimate Fighting Championship.
"Concept for the gym is a place where families, girls, and kids can enjoy and it is basically centered upon losing weight while learning self defense," he said.
The gym offers fitness programs through boxing, Muay Thai, mixed martial arts, and Brazilian Jiu Jitsu .
Lim said boxing is available for their clients the whole day from 7am to 8pm while Muay Thai classes are available from 7am to 7pm.
"Meanwhile, we have three classes a day for our Brazilian Jiu Jitsu. Beginner and advance classes are available," he said.
They also have classes for mixed martial arts on Tuesday, Thursday, and Saturday from 6pm to 7:30pm while on Sunday its open mats at 2pm.
There are two to three coaches who are on standby at a time at the gym to assist clients. Lim, who is a seasoned and multiawarded martial artist, is the head coach for Brazilian Jiu Jitsu.
Lim said when clients enroll in a class, the use of the gym is free.
"Soon we plan to offer functional fitness programs where there is a coach to assist. Clients can drop in to specify what they want like trim fat or bulk up. The coach will be there to guide them in the programs and watch over them," he said.
Clients can also expect additional gym and training equipment in the coming months. Meanwhile, Lim plans to add a boxing ring, octagon, and tire flips on the third floor of the building.
Lim said for their rates, they are offering a promo for the first month of their operations.
"Our regular rate is P1,500 per month but if you register within the first month, membership is already free for the whole year," he said.
The rates per session is P250 for the martial arts classes while their functional fitness session is also priced at P250 per session. Boxing and Muay Thai gloves are also for rent at P50 per session.
