The Indianapolis Martial Arts Club has been everything I hoped for and so much more! It's the best workout I've ever had. I work really hard. And I see the results! When I joined, I felt better almost immediately-I was less tense and slept much more soundly. Within two months I started noticing changes in the way my clothes fit. I've been coming to the school regularly for about 10 months now. I can see muscles in my arms and legs, where before there was only flab. I've lost 14 pounds without changing my diet! I've also gone down several clothing sizes-before coming to the gym I wore size 10-12 pants and I just recently bought a pair of size 4 jeans! I can't even remember the last time I wore a size 4 - not since high school at least. I'm much happier and more confident person now. For perhaps the first time, I feel like I'm in control of my life.
When I look at where I started and what I've accomplished in these past months, I realize that I can do anything if I put my mind to it! In fact, I'm going to compete in my first match next month! The instructors at the school are wonderful. I found the whole experience pretty intimidating when I first started but the staff took the time to teach me the basics and made sure to keep an eye on me to make sure I was doing well. They don't just throw new people into the deep end-they help you learn and develop skills. I've really appreciated how supportive all the instructors are.
They always encourage me to do better-I never feel stupid in class, even when I'm doing something completely wrong because rather than focusing on what you've done incorrectly they focus on how you can improve. Joining I.M.A.C. in one of the best things I've done. I have gotten so much out of it-I couldn't be happier with my experience.
