Hit Like a Heavyweight (Midtown Sep. 26th)

"High-mass" is the adjective that sets heavyweight blows apart from speedster knockout artists. Learn how to get it -- even as lightweight.
About this Event

Every martial arts school and combat sports gym teaches how to "throw" a punch -- very few teach a proper landing. That counts if you're just trying to stun your opponent, catch them off-guard ... but most of the body mass you can incorporate into your strike is lost precisely at that moment of landing. In this event, you will learn how enage extra pounds of your bodyweight and bury them into the targets. Focus will be on body shots.
