What makes Tactix Training Centers different?

Our approach is total and comprehensive. Some gyms have great weight training facilities. Others have plyo-metrics programs. While others focus on fast twitch training. At Tactix, we pride ourselves in offering a full range of training approaches and modalities to develop the Athlete to their fullest. One area that Tactix excels is in its very unique and progressive martial arts program for athletes, using the late Bruce art of Jeet Kune Do. Another is the emphasis on Tactical and Mental training to improve the Athletes work and training ethics, ability to handle challenges and failures, problem solving and No Quit Attitude.

At what age should I or my child start lifting weights?

Of course everyone is different, but we start youth with very light and limited weight training between the ages of 12 and 14. We emphasize range of motion, proper form, joint health, back alignment and building a solid foundation without overly stressing the skeletal system or connective tissues.

Can I train with weights even during the season?

Absolutely! We cut down on the intensity and the frequency and focus on maintaining strength, speed, flexibility and range of motion as well as injury prevention.

Are private sessions or group classes better?

A combination of both is best. Privates provide for very close supervision, critiquing and focus whereas the group lessons offer more of a competitive, team work and opportunity for leadership and a gauge with the other athletes in the group.

How does martial arts training benefit me as an athlete?

Warrior Mentality is gained as well as Tactical Awareness. Martial Arts Drills are also great for quickness, footwork, toughening of mind and body and the Indomitable Spirit that Warriors learn for the battlefield.
