A martial arts academy at 16 Taonui Street in Palmerston North Central, formerly known as J's Gym. It began in 2006 in a small school hall, and now has its own purpose-built facility with purpose-designed equipment. The website says the academy has trained multiple New Zealand and Oceania champions over the last fourteen years.
Classes include strength and conditioning, personal training, Dutch-style kickboxing, Muay Thai, boxing and Brazilian jiu-jitsu. The academy welcomes people of all ages who want an alternative form of exercise, and describes its environment as safe, clean and energetic. There are no joining fees, and the first class is free, so new people can give it a try. The website invites people to contact the academy with any questions.
The website describes the academy as a place where people develop self-discipline, focus and confidence, and where members can step out of their comfort zones. As a longer-running gym in the city, it offers a community that is focused on each member's goals, and it says it is invested in their success.
