CAROLINE : WELSH WINNING!

This Welshy has spirit! Caroline gave so much into her training, never looking back or holding out on any exercise in any session. She trained to her absolute maximum and as result Caro's lost 3 dress sizes, increased her overall strength, tone and fitness levels by double! I was so impressed by her 'Always ready' attitude...and had but no choice but to learn from her infectious drive and determination.

A full time mom and corporate leader in a very competitve business world, Caroline still showed up, with a smile, to every session...with enough energy for an entire class full of aerobic ladies! What a star, and total joy!
Well done Caro's! 
Keep up that inspiring zest!

Boxing and Muay Thai



Boxing and Muay Thai (Thai kick boxing) are both an extremely brilliant way to get into serious shape, but more importantly both are perfect forms of self defense!



Try throw a few punches and kick combinations, lasting for an average round of 3 minutes...and see how you feel!
Not easy!
Train for a good 60 minute session, 2-3 x a week....the results will astound you!
Not to mention the increased speed, coordination and reaction time!






Muay Thai also known as Thai Kick boxing, involves your legs as a added Striking weapon.
Knee's and kicks to your opponent or attacker will leave them with an extremely sore, if not lame, leg! A correctly aimed knee strike, could also dewind your assailant, and drop most men to their knees!
So Ladies, this is a win/win way off getting into your best shape, in a highly effective format of self defense.
Kick and punch your way to being your best!

The classes at BH compliment the fighting fit mentality..while perfecting your style and technique. There are no ways better to get stronger and fitter for boxing or Muay Thai than doing it itself. However, the use of a few functional fitness tools, thrown in between rounds adds to the endurance and strength.

Phillipa's success story

"I first started with Rudi's kettle bells class in Safa Park last September when my next door neighbour dragged me along saying, "come on, its fun and you said you wanted to lose weight." With slight apprehension I turned up assuming that someone as unfit as I was would never cope. Instantly Rudi put me at my ease and adjusted the programme to suit my level of ability (which was very limited). To begin with I was a bit of a 'doubting Thomas', but after a few weeks I noticed a definite change in my shape (especially around the waist area - always a bonus) and after about a month was increasing the weights of the kettles I was lifting. I was hooked. Rudi keeps the classes interesting and varied and has an excellent knowledge of general health and nutrition too. As a group we have a lot of laughs in the park but train hard too and the results are now showing. I am fitter, thinner and more toned. What more can a girl ask - thanks Rudi! "

Phillipa Stumbles.

Training Tim, hard as nails..100% Kiwi!







Barsha park camp



“Maintaining a regular fitness routine is as much about mental motivation as it is variety. This is where Rudi’s sessions work for me and a few regulars who front up, week in week out regardless of wind, humidity, dust or heat.
He plans out our sessions in advance to keep them interesting and is able to co-ordinate large groups in a way which meets the requirements of the individual whilst maintaining the atmosphere of a group work-out.”

CROSS CONDITIONING

Creating an explosive, responsive and a strongly reactive body to endure and power through differing elements and physical demands, we need to create, mimick and exagerate training conditions. Utilizing odd objects, uneven surfaces and extreme tasks regulated by principles of time, distance and weight. To be ultimately fit for the elements of surprize and to be super human strong, like in an adrenaline life or death moment, we can only prepare our bodies best this way by training in the unpreparable, uncomfortable and unorthodox ways and methods...

RESCUE READY!

Life is not a rehearsal, and so you should be living it to your most, ready for what may come.
A philosophy i stand by and incorporate in training.
A rescue ready fitness?
Have what it takes and give more than what is needed in any emergency situation...it could save a life.
I come from a surf rescue background and a martial art background...and i utilise these forms of training as well as functional strength movements to get the results needed.



Surf swim sprints, 1 man drags, heavy sand bag lifts, beach sprints....it all requires that mindset- Rescue ready and fighting fit.


PRIVATE COACHING

All sports have evolved, and so should your training...a fully diverse and functional program makes for a faster, stronger and all round athlete.












The use of tools with odd shapes and unstable weights which challenge differing planes of movement ensures you are not just focused on any single direction, but you are functionally strong through many.















Private coaching gives you the edge. Personal attention, catering for the conditioning demands of your sporting demands. Providing the essentials needed for cross training in any sport which requires sudden change in speed, direction, force, strength and endurance...WHICH IS MOST SPORTS!

 Areas of speciality : RUGBY, BOXING, MUAY THAI, JIU JITSU, KETTLEBELLS, SWIM COACHING.
