If it’s time to break out of your cardio machine rut, or if you’re looking for a way to up your mental muscle while increasing your strength and overall fitness, adding some martial arts to the routine may be the ticket. About a three-minute walk from St. Clair Station, classes at Toronto No Gi (pronounced no ghee) focus on Brazilian jiu jitsu (which combines self defense and fitness for a mind and body workout), and Muay Thai (a major calorie burner that’s a mix of strength training and cardio). All levels are welcome, from absolute beginners to more advanced practitioners.
