Your local kickboxing class, just over the border
Northcote and Thornbury share a border, so for most Northcote locals the dojo is about 1 km away, a few minutes by car or bike. High Street runs straight through both suburbs, which makes the trip easy whether you start near the Westgarth end or further north.
Because it's so close, Northcote is one of the easiest places to fit fitness kickboxing into a normal week. Finish work, get changed, and you can be on the mat for the 6:30pm class Monday to Thursday without rushing.
Why Northcote locals train with us
There are plenty of gyms and studios around Northcote. What's different here is who's teaching. Every class is run by martial arts instructors from a school that has been teaching in Melbourne since 1997, so you learn to kick and punch properly while you get fit.
Classes are 45 minutes, non-contact and set to music. You work on your own freestanding bag or tower, so there's no partner to keep up with and nobody watching you learn. Complete beginners and people who have trained for years do the same class at their own pace.
A simple plan to get started
Start with your 4 free classes and a free pair of gloves. Try a weeknight class and a Saturday morning, then pick the times that suit you. Most people settle into once or twice a week, which is $24.50 a week for one class or $39.50 a week for unlimited classes.

Two popular ways to train
Fitness kickboxing
Our main class mixes kicks, punches, knees and elbows on 5-foot bags and striking towers. It's 45 minutes of full-body work, set to music, and you finish knowing you've trained properly.
Group fitness
A friendly group, the music up and an instructor calling the rounds. Group fitness is the easiest way to stay motivated and keep turning up.
“Been doing Fitness Kickboxing here for about 3 years. Cannot recommend GMA enough! The classes are always varied and fun, and the instructors are amazing and always put their own spin on classes, so you are learning something new with every class.”
