Women's Shinbudo
(Mixed Martial Arts System)
Provides REAL Fighting Skills and a Great Workout!

 

Nearly all real self-defense situations involve grappling (grabbing-holding) and ground fighting. The problem is that nearly all martial art programs do not offer complete and effective training in these areas. In addition, many female students tend to be uncomfortable training in grappling and ground fighting with men. Therefore, the Warrior's Cove offers a training system where women have the opportunity to arrange training with other women, and NEVER be required to train with the men.

During these classes, you will be in the same room with the men, but you will only train with the women. Co-Ed Training is another option for all Women. You decide what type of training is best for you!

Other Co-Ed Classes that are especially popular with women are Aerobic Kickboxing & Yoga. Check out the main school schedules for these class times.
 


 

 

 

 

Testimonials From Women
   

 

 

  

"I am very happy with my membership and training.  I have been most impressed by the people there and how friendly, helpful and approachable everyone is.  And this goes from the top down and includes instructors as well as other class members.  Having no prior martial arts training, I was a little concerned when my boyfriend convinced me to join that there would be a lot of hard core, militant types in the class that would be intimidating to a small woman like me.  On the contrary, I’ve found everyone to be friendly and approachable and easy to work with.  I am sure that attitude is instilled from the top down (meaning you) because your class members want to emulate you.  So they take cues from you and when they see that you are respectful of everyone and friendly and approachable in your training style, they act the same way.  So please don’t change a thing about that…because I continue to be impressed every class by how wonderful the people are!

"I have searched all over the metro area for an aerobic kickboxing workout that is fun yet challenging and found what I was looking for at Warrior's Cove. It is a great place to exercise and I have recommended it to all of my friends!

"The Warrior's Cove is not only a good place for training, it is also a great community to be part of. I felt accepted and welcome from the first class. Great instructors, great atmosphere and a great experience!"

"These philosophies are GREAT!! This is exactly the kind of thing that every martial arts school should be providing it's students. Sometimes we need reminders of why we're there and that what we're getting out of our training is not just physical in nature. It's this kind of stuff that sets the Warrior's Cove apart from any other martial arts school out there."

Andrea Simonson - Shinbudo & Brazilian Jiu Jitsu Student. Former Hapkido Student.

  

"I would recommend the Warrior's Cove to others. All the trainers I've had are really good. Amy is a total challenge to keep up with, and she always has tips of how to position slightly better. Kristy's floorwork routines definitely burn the calories, and she seems to lean a bit more toward self-defense which is totally cool. Carolyn is just excellent, always encouraging, always blending self-defense into the moves to give them a purpose. I was also impressed that the price I start at, is the price I stay at, (as long as I don't quit). The free introductory classes were also neat, I was pretty much sold after the first one I had."

Becky Berscheid - Aerobic Kickboxing Student. No previous martial art training.

  

"The Warrior's Cove offers many disciplines and cross-training principles. No matter what form of martial art you have studied in the past, you will learn a great deal more by incorporating these cross-training techniques."

"I recently moved to San Francisco, and my top priority has been to find a martial arts school where I could become involved in a rigorous kickboxing program like I have experienced at Warrior's Cove. There are dojos [schools] on every corner here, but none that even remotely compare to the Cove. When I walked into Warrior's Cove several years ago, I knew immediately that this was not just another martial arts school. This was a special place filled with people who care about each other and enjoy training together. The kickboxing classes are the most intense and fun that I have ever encountered. The instructors have a vast knowledge of technique and are passionate about their teaching. The students are made to feel comfortable and important. I miss the Warrior's Cove like you would not believe! I look forward to the day I can move back."

"I really do like the atmosphere of the Warrior's Cove, its relaxed but serious too. I like the small class sizes, and I feel that I am really learning a lot of things in kickboxing. Carolyn is an excellent instructor. She has such great motivation and is very personal with every member. She makes me feel comfortable in the class even though I am new to kickboxing. Even in the first class, I felt at ease and comfortable, not intimidated. Her instructions while teaching the class are clear and motivating!"
