YOU'LL QUICKLY SHED THOSE EXTRA POUNDS
I’m sure you’ve heard that the best way to lose weight is diet and exercise: You need to control what you eat (but not necessarily “go on a diet”), and you need to exercise.
The secret the multi-billion dollar weight loss industry doesn’t want you to know is that all their diets with the clever, catchy names are designed to make them money, not to help you lose weight and keep it off! Once you start buying their food, they want you to keep buying their food for the rest of your life . . . and you have to eat what they want you to eat!
No wonder they don’t work for long! People who go “on a diet” quickly regain all their weight and more once they go “off” their diet. It becomes a never-ending cycle of hope followed by disappointment.
YOU'LL GAIN LEAN, SOLID MUSCLE
As we grow older we naturally lose muscle mass and gain fat – it starts to happen in our early twenties . . . and just goes downhill from there. The average adult is on a runaway train that starts with slower movement, builds to nagging discomfort, and eventually ends in a heart attack.
The good news is that you can reverse the ravages of age with a consistent exercise program. Kickboxing will help you develop remarkable skills while increasing your STRENGTH, ENDURAGoose CreekE, and FLEXIBILITY. Imagine feeling young again, with all the strength and confidence you had at 18 . . . but with today’s wisdom!
YOU'LL GAIN UNSTOPPABLE ENERGY
A simple law of physics is that a body at rest tends to stay at rest, and a body in motion tends to stay in motion.
If you’ve gotten out of shape because you don’t have a consistent exercise program, it’s no surprise that you don’t feel energetic — you have a body at rest. The more you stay on the couch, growing roots like a potato, the less energy you will have. Your future includes laziness, apathy, and maybe even depression.
Once you develop a body in motion, it will be easier to stay in motion. As you lose weight and gain strength, you will feel more energy to participate in sports again, play with your children (or even grandchildren), and actually enjoy the feel of your body as you exercise.
Kickboxing is the perfect energizing workout. You gain both power and stamina because our unique program of Power Breathing stimulates your internal organs along with your muscles. You become healthier from the inside out, feeling a wellspring of internal energy.
Dear Friend,
If you’re like me, you know that the current research says exercise not only helps us look and feel our best, it helps us stay a lot healthier.
We all know that we SHOULD exercise, but the problem with most exercise programs is that they are just too BORING! Running or even walking mile after mile, or lifting the same weight 10 – 20 – 30 times just gets old fast . . . AND it usually hurts!
Our “Lean and Mean” martial arts fitness program is totally different.
Every movement has a purpose – a purpose that might one day save your life! Some of our students have actually been able to defend themselves from dangerous attacks, while most are grateful just knowing how to avoid trouble.
Hi, my name is Robert Gouthro Sensei.
I’m very proud to say that HUNDREDS of adults in the North Charleston area have a BLAST in every class while learning awesome skills in kickboxing and watching the pounds melt away.

It truly is a ‘total’ body workout!
There is no other workout that is so complete and engagin!
One of the best parts of our program is that every student is treated as an individual, and will progress at their ow rate.
Each student’s progress isn’t measured against other students, but rather against their own previous performance!
So even students that aren’t as physically fit as the star quaterback on the football team, can have a wonderful experience in our program, and become stronger, fitter and more flexible.
The great thing about our program is, everyone is treated as an individual.
We have students as young as 3 or 4 and as old as 94.
Since every person is different, the best (and really ONLY) way to see if our program is a good fit for you, is to take advantage of one of our WEB SPECIALS and try it for yourself!
I’m 100% confident you’ll have a great time!
Our program is FUNDAMENTALLY different!
In a typical ‘exercise’ program, you may be getting a good workout, but you’re really not ‘learning’ much of anything.
Our programs will not only keep you excited and motivated because of the high energy nature of our instruction that always keeps the class fresh, and interesting but you’ll also be learning real practical skills that could one day save your life.
Our students find this learning process incredibly engaging, and challenges them to truly “master” their technique. I guess this is the reason our students stick with our program while previous workouts have failed them.
We know how busy your life is, so our program is designed for the ‘busy’ person! Students can make exciting progress by attending classes an average of twice a week.
Some students will want to attend more classes, and that’s great, we have options for that!
Really, the only way to know if our program is a good fit for you and/or your family is to try it for yourself!
We have some GREAT WEB SPECIALS, so you can try the program with no strings attached, and see with your own 2 eyes how the program will benefit you or your whole family.

I absolutely love this gym. It has such a homey and family friendly vibe; it's made me feel a lot less homesick after I moved here. I've done the boxing, judo, jujitsu, and self defense classes and I'm never disappointed. The instructors are all well spoken and very knowledgeable (both within the specific classes and in general questions regarding techniques and muscle development & pain management).
I love the idea that they had to use the day time as a child care/virtual schooling area and another thing that really stood out to me is the care that they take regarding safety in the kids classes. One specific example being how the instructor (Rob) was checking the technique on their falls and while doing the throw, it was both slow enough for the child's size and he also supported their head/neck throughout the movement then provided feedback on how they could improve.
Lisa and Rob have a really good crew and do a great job with the gym!
Covid: They do take temperatures and record them at the door. I've also seen them stream classes for some people that weren't comfortable coming in, though that may be something you have to ask for specifically. I'm not 100% sure.

I have known the instructor here for many years and I have a ton of respect for him. He teaches the best krav maga classes in the area. The gym is set up very well with lots of space to move and very safe and clean. I highly recommend them!

The gym has some great instructors who are very knowledgeable about the programs they offer! The program that I favor is the kids and adult judo class. The instructors are all very well versed in what they teach and are versatile with the variety of age groups they work with (young children up to adults). They also make it feel more like a community than just a fitness/self defense class. It is nice seeing how they come together to teach the art and culture, and how to do things the right way to avoid injury. The only thing I dislike about the gym is that some classes aren’t consistent with the staff members. Even in those cases, they all are on the same page and very skilled. Otherwise it’s a pretty good gym! The owner knows just about every student’s name and makes a fairly welcoming atmosphere.
