GETTING STARTED

Warning:Training at Abhaya is habit-forming. Before embarking on the steps outlined below you should be aware that participating in Mixed Martial Arts will bring about increased strength, cardiovascular conditioning, improved self-image, confidence and general feelings of well-being and contentment.

Step 1: Contact us.

First, tell us a little about yourself. The most direct way is to call us at 542-1666 and talk to one of our trainers. If we're not there to answer the phone, please leave a message on the machine with your name, phone number and the best time for us to return your call. We hate voice-mail too, but we have lots of classes to run and sometimes we're away from the office so don't be shy. We'll get back to you promptly. Alternatively, you can use the handy form below to get in touch with us. In either case, we'll work out the best time for you to come in and check us out (see step 2)

How would you describe your current level of fitness.

Horrible, my main form of training is curling beer bottles and smoking cigarettes.
Not great, I'm a bit of a coach potato but I don't get out of breath walking up a flight of stairs.
Decent shape, I make it in to the gym and/or do some recreational sports.
I'm an athlete and train regularly at a high level of intensity.




Step Two: Come in for a Free Private Lesson!

After you’ve contacted us we’ll arrange for a time when you can come in for a free, thirty minute private lesson. We want to make sure that you have the best possible training experience when you begin your journey as a martial artist at Abhaya. Before your first formal class, we’d like to have the chance to answer any questions you might have, show you around the gym and also give you an introductory lesson into some of the techniques and training methods that we use here. This free introductory lesson doesn’t include any hidden fees and you’re under no obligation to join. Our instructors are here to make sure you get the most out of your training from day one!

Step 3: Start your introductory month.

So you’ve completed your free private lesson and you’re ready to commit to training for a month. Great! We have a low introductory month fee of $50.00 (HST included). You might find that you gravitate toward certain classes over others. Where your training path is taking you will determine what equipment you need to purchase, talk to us about what you need and if you like we can order it for you. We take payment in the form of cash or cheque, debit or credit and online through Paypal if you prefer to pay online.
