Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need any experience to start kickboxing training?
No experience necessary! Kash teaches complete beginners and will start you with the fundamentals, progressing at a pace that suits you. Many successful fighters started with zero martial arts background.
Will I get hit during training?
Not unless you choose to spar. Most of Kash's kickboxing students in Birmingham focus on pad work, bag work, and technique training. Sparring is optional and only introduced when you're ready and interested.
What should I wear for my first kickboxing lesson?
Wear comfortable athletic clothing – shorts/joggers and a t-shirt work perfectly. Bring water. Initially, you can train in clean trainers, though many kickboxers prefer to train barefoot. Boxing gloves and protective equipment are provided.
How often should I train?
Most students see excellent progress training 2-3 times per week. Competitive fighters typically train more frequently. Kash will recommend a training schedule based on your goals during your consultation.
Is kickboxing training good for weight loss?
Absolutely! Kickboxing is one of the most effective workouts for burning calories and fat. A typical session can burn 600-900 calories while building lean muscle. Combined with proper nutrition, kickboxing training in Birmingham with Kash delivers excellent weight loss results.
What's the difference between kickboxing and Muay Thai?
While similar, traditional Muay Thai includes elbow strikes, more extensive clinch work, and leg kicks to the thigh. Sport kickboxing typically focuses on punches and high kicks. Kash teaches elements of both, adapting to your interests and goals.
Can older adults do kickboxing training?
Yes! Kickboxing training can be adapted for any age or fitness level. Kash works with students from teenagers to seniors, modifying intensity and techniques as appropriate. The key is starting at the right level and progressing safely.
