"I went from frustrated to fit
and I can show YOU how to do it, too!"
Dear Friend,
Never before has there been so much pressure on people to "do it all" - career, family, health and fitness. The stress and frustration that can build up can begin feel almost unbearable at times. Add to that the largely unrealistic expectations we have for ourselves - mainly influenced by the media - and it's no wonder we feel like we are never doing enough.
You probably feel this even more so if you are a woman. I know I did. But I have a solution that I know will work for you just as it has for me and hundreds of people just like us. My name is Rebecca Pittam and I'm the Program Director for the CBK Elite Kickboxing Program at Canada's Best Karate. I won't say that this program will solve all your problems but I can tell you without a doubt that our training can change your life when it comes to your health, fitness level and ability to manage stress.
How do I know this? Besides all the feedback I receive from our members every year (you can read a sampling below) I have my own personal experience. Before I became an instructor and program director of the CBK Elite Kickboxing program, I was a member and student.
How do I balance it all?
Between balancing a full-time career and managing a household with my husband and two sons, I relied on having a regular fitness routine as an escape from the pressure of life. I had worked out at the gym and tried various fitness programs at local community centres but quickly plateaued and started to lose my motivation to continue. That's when an ad for a new type of fitness routine caught my eye: Fitness Kickboxing at Canada's Best Karate. The program was being taught by the sensei (chief instructor) of the school, Scott Bullard, and it wasn't long after trying the classes that I knew I had found the workout I had been searching for.
Not only did I participate in fitness kickboxing program but I also started taking karate classes as well, eventually earning my black belt. It wasn't long after that Sensei Bullard asked me to become the program director for the kickboxing program, which I was thrilled to do because I knew it had the potential to change so many lives just as it had done for me.

"Although I have been working out in gyms and on my own for many years, my workouts with the trainers of the Women’s Elite Kickboxing Program at Canada’s Best Karate has taken my fitness level higher in a short period of time.
The trainers take a personal and genuine interest in helping each participant reach their personal fitness goals. I have been so pleased with my results, and have also found a way to relax and relieve some of the stress of my life. The classes are taught by experienced instructors who care about how you are progressing.
Canada’s Best Karate introduced me to the missing elements – the whole-person approach to exercise, engaging the body, mind and spirit in all of their classes. This satisfied my workouts and made them worth the time and effort. Canada’s Best Karate provides fitness options that event he most novice participant would feel comfortable understanding how to perform safely and properly. The environment is friendly and classes are fun, but don’t mistaken this for the challenges you will be faced with and the results you will achieve."

"I have been a karate-mom for about 5 years and have often thought about taking the {fitness kickboxing} classes. I’m not sure how many times I picked up the schedule and then decided not to go because it seemed intimidating and I wasn’t sure I could do it.
I gave it a try after the holidays and now I’m hooked! It is a tough workout but the atmosphere is so positive and energizing that I now look forward to the classes. I already can feel an improvement in myself and a motivation to keep working.”

The only program you will ever need!
That was a long time ago and much has changed with the program. Our classes have expanded to teaching not just the aerobic combinations of kickboxing but also:
-
heavy bag training for power
-
light weights and power bands for muscle tone
-
circuit training
-
core strength and flexibility
There are even two Canada's Best Karate locations offering the Elite Kickboxing rogram, along with the full range of CBK Karate programs for children and adults.
What hasn't changed is the dedication of our instructors. You will not find a more energetic group of fitness instructors anywhere and each one is committed to empowering you to reach your full potential. And that's one of the key differences that separates the CBK Elite Kickboxing program from any other: our instructors act like your own personal success coach.
They can modify the program to meet your current fitness level while helping you to keep pushing forward to new heights of health. They can monitor your training schedule and help keep you on track. And they are going to inspire you through their energy and enthusiasm. Remember: all of our instructors were members just like you - they did it and so can you!
I hope that I have been able to convince you of the benefits you will see by becoming a member of the CBK Elite Kickboxing Program. The best way to see if this program is for you is to experience it for yourself. Come on out and try a free class.
