Women interested in developing their ability to defend themselves will be able to hone their survival instincts in an upcoming course on "Women's Fitness and Flash-Fight Defense" to be offered at Better Life Fitness from April 30 until June 20 by Kung Fu martial artist Taylor Capozzolo.
The introductory course on April 30 is offered at no charge, so anybody with even a passing interest is encouraged to attend.
Capozzolo maintains that the Flash-Fight approach is "realistic and effective," an imperative characteristic of a self-defense program that is intended to "work" in real life.
He believes his program can help ensure women go home with "invaluable understanding and training, empowering them to effectively defend themselves."
Capozzolo began his martial arts training at age 12, and has since developed his interest into a passion and way of life.
"I started young and never stopped," he said. "The martial arts are rich in culture and time-tested wisdom based on principles and philosophies that can be applied throughout life."
"The training is an excellent way to keep fit and to maintain a level of focus and discipline, at any age," he continued. "Fitness is actually the key focus of this program because, without that, the elements required to defend yourself at any
level will not be there," he explained.
Following the free introductory session on April 30, 14 classes will be held on Saturdays fromt 9 to 10 a.m., and Mondays at 6 to 7 p.m. until June 20.
Capozzolo will soon offer children's Kung Fu classes as well.
