If you’ve always thought you just don’t give a Jean Claude Van Damme about working out, we may have found just the exercise regimen for you.

Kickboxing, of course, strengthens your core and gets your cardio system in high gear.

But, it also helps improve balance, agility, range of motion and personal confidence.

Kickboxing has its roots in self-defense and that is also one of the benefits of this class.

According to long-time instructor, Pam Rutherford, kickboxing adjusts your mental well-being, making you feel more at ease and comfortable tackling the rest of your day and week.

Pam’s class at the YMCA in KCK is full every day with every age and fitness level.

In addition to being a workout that easily adjusts to the individual, it also brings you into a group that becomes a motivating source in itself.

This Motivation Monday was a real kick...perfect if you feel a little punchy.
