Dear Students, Friends, and Colleagues of Main Street Martial Arts:  

Please join our campaign to build a new floor for the studio!  Now that we got the ceiling raised up, we can build a new floor with a solid level surface, clean, and fresh.  When we take up the mats, we could have a multi-purpose floor for many other programs, after-school programs, and vacation camps for our urban youth programs.  Please join this campaign and spread the word to all your friends. Use the Widget at the bottom of this page to set the donation amount that works for you, and click JOIN to sign on for the cause!

Our goal is to reach 30 people to contribute $100 each for a total of $3,000.00.  However, you can join for $1.00 to help the cause as every bit will help.  The funds will go directly to materials for the floor with all volunteers to install it.  Thank you all so much. I really appreciate your effort to spread the word on this easily achievable campaign and project.  All contributions are fully 100% exempt from federal taxes as your donation goes to the Kids' Action League of Martial Artists, Inc. 501(c) (3). Please send the link to this web page to your friends.

Sincerely,

Werth Sensei

Silver MSFC Program:

The Silver MSFC Program includes the entirety of the Bronze plan and additionally includes free membership in our Team Beachbody Club program, which entitles you to 10% discount on all fitness and nutritional products (optional: Join the Team Beachbody Coach program and receive a 25% discount on health and nutritional products).  You will also be automatically enrolled in our MSFC Coach Training Program.  Once you meet your original health or fitness goal as a Bronze or Silver Program member, and you pass your coach certification exam, you will then be eligible to apply to become an MSFC Program Coach at Main Street Martial Arts with the potential to earn a part-time income coaching others just like you!

How To Get Started:

Please use the MSMA Quick Contact Form at the right to reserve your place in our Open Enrollment Introductory Workshop Meeting on Sunday, August 29 from 7:30AM-10:30AM.  We will have an exciting Group Kickboxing class at 7:30AM followed by Advanced Cooking class with Chef Ricardo Costa at 9:00AM

The introductory workshop is limited to 15 people.  You need to reserve by August 24 to participate in the workshop.  If it is after August 24, you can still send us a Quick Contact, but also call to see if we can work you in, or we can schedule you for the next workshop.

 

After the free introductory workshop, if you are interested in enrolling in any of our MSFC Fitness programs, you will then be provided with your first weekly menu and scheduled for your first monthly fitness assessment and analysis.  Before embarking on any fitness and nutritional program, be absolutely sure that you have consulted with your primary care physician as to your current capacity to achieve your personal health and fitness goals.

 

Frequently Asked Questions:

Q1) What will the MSFC Program do for me?

A1) All MSFC programs are individually designed to help you to meet your health and fitness goals.  For example, maybe you want to get stronger, lower your heart rate, lose inches, have more stamina, lose weight, be more physically fit, or simply to feel better and have more enjoyment in your life.

 

Q2) Why can't I accomplish all that you are offering at my local gym?

A2) The reason why most people don't accomplish their health and fitness goals at their local gym is because they do not have a personal fitness coach who will continuously guide them and help them track progress in moving toward their goals.  Rates at your local gym for personal training can range from $45 to $75 per hour for a typical trainer.  At Main Street Fitness Consulting, you will be working with life-time dedicated health and fitness professionals with decades of experience.  You will have continuous and unlimited contact with them for a fraction of the cost of a comparable program anywhere else. 

 

Q3) Will I be able to afford your program?

A3) If you wanted to have 2 lessons per week at your local gym with your personal trainer, it will cost you about $100 per week, or about $400 per month PLUS your gym membership.  At MSFC, your work with your coach is INCLUDED in the cost of your monthly membership.  We are also a non-profit program and we will work with you financially to create a program that you can afford that fits your budget.

 

Q4) Will I really lose weight if I participate in your program?  (Nothing I have ever tried has ever worked, or if I had some success at the beginning, my weight bounced back up again.)

A4) We guarantee the results of our program.  If you don't achieve your goal in the first six months, then we will give you the program for free for an additional six months or until you achieve your goal, whichever comes first!

 

Q5) What is the MSFC Coach Training Program and can I really earn money coaching other people?

A5) The MSFC Coach Training Program is for our dedicated Silver and Gold Plan health and fitness members.  Not only do you work to achieve your goals, but you also train to become a coach yourself in our system.  As an MSFC certified coach, you can have clients of your own, and earn a part-time income.  Yes, you really can earn some money as a "second job" helping others, and that's a good feeling for you.  Instead of delivering pizza or bagging groceries at night for extra money, you could be helping people achieve their health and fitness goals.

 

Q6) Who are the people behind MSFC?

A6) Main Street Fitness Consulting is a non-profit team health and fitness group.  We are dedicated to peace, health, & safety and we operate under the Kids’ Action League of Martial Artists, Inc. 501(c) (3) (KALOMA).  KALOMA provides scholarship funding for education, fitness, after school, vacation camp, martial arts, and cultural arts programming to urban children and families who cannot easily afford these services.  By joining our group and enjoying working out for your improved health and strength, you are also working to help others who don’t have the means or capacity to do so for themselves.  You will feel good working out, getting in shape, AND helping others at the same time.

Our founding members are:

Coach Melissa Beliveau: Russian Kettlebells Core Training System

Coach Chef Ricardo Costa: Nutrition Director and Chef Extraordinaire

Coach Tommy Ramsay: KO Kickboxing, X-Treme Fitness, and Mixed Martial Arts

Coach Michael Werth Sensei: Program Director and Martial Arts Instructor

Under the expert guidance of our coaches, you will lose weight, lose inches, gain stamina, and gain strength.  You will be able to sustain your progress as our system is based on a lifestyle, and not on a yo-yo diet gimmick.  You will be successful. 

Helpful Information:

Please let us know using the MSMA Quick Contact Form if you have any other questions, or you want to make an appointment to try a free class in our program.  We're looking forward to meeting you and helping you to achieve your goals.

Athletic Conditioning Program at Main Street Martial Arts PDF Print E-mail
Written by Werth Sensei   
Sunday, 03 January 2010 14:11

Main Street Martial Arts, Inc.

Conditioning for Athletes

Elite Fitness and Athletic Conditioning Training for Sports (EFACTS)

Spring Session – Limited Enrollment – Minimum of 8 – Maximum of 20 Athletes

Sunday mornings – 9:00AM – 10:15AM – February 28 through May 2 (Makeup May 9)

Individuals or Teams are Welcome to Enroll (group of 10 – 10% discount – group of 15 – 15% discount)

 

EFACTS Program Whitepaper


External Strength Endurance (external muscle conditioning)

Internal Core Strength Endurance (core conditioning)

Cardiovascular Endurance (breathing, heart & lung capacity)

Power (explosive strength)

Control (appropriate distribution of power)

Agility (quick change of direction or strategy)

Balance (position control under movement)

Flexibility (increased range of motion)

Response (continuous engagement vs. reaction time)

Psychology (focus, confidence, motivation, and training)

Integration (tying all factors together)

Health (rest, recovery, and wellness)


 

Main Street Martial Arts (MSMA) prepares the TOTAL ATHLETE through our EFACTS conditioning program.  All factors of strength & fitness preparation are considered to optimize an athlete’s preparedness for a wide diversity of game-day situations.  With our background in martial arts, our instructors understand how the mind of the athlete, win or lose, is paralleled to life or death, being attached to neither.  Instead, total preparation of the mind, body, and spirit are necessary to face any situation in a calm, responsive, powerful, and controlled manner.  The total athlete is a prepared athlete ready for any situation.  The total athlete wins, not through raw desire, but through superior skills and confidence.

 

EFACTS is smart.  Competitive individuals, coaches and parents understand that practice time is absolutely priceless, and that time spent on sports-specific basic skill-building is mission critical.  MSMA will free up practice time so that coaches can begin with a maintenance warm-up, and then get right to business in their sport’s specialty.  MSMA provides the deep muscle and core conditioning for all athletes.  Coaches whose players train with MSMA can focus on sports-specific skills without taking out extra practice time away from skill-building and game preparation.

 

EFACTS is cost-effective.  Typical conditioning classes from a personal trainer range in cost from $40-$60 per hour per athlete.  MSMA can simultaneously train and push a group of 10-20 athletes to their fullest potential through our group/team/unit approach.  This team group approach pushes costs down to $18 per player per session.  Furthermore, a coach can train a group of 15 or more athletes on the same team with us at a 15% discount.  For 10 or more sessions (recommended to attain and measure progress), a further discount of 10% applies.  The cost to fully condition 15 athletes on the same team would only cost $1,690.  The estimated savings in practice time for skills-building and game preparation for the sports-specific coach would be about 3 hours in recaptured practice time over the same 10 week period.  The overall team would be significantly better-conditioned, more prepared, and have more overall practice time than any other team under this system.  This gives an MSMA prepared team a competitive advantage, and over the long run, a much higher rate of success for these athletes.

 

Register now for this program through this web site and our secure payment processor, PayPal.  Registration Deadline is February 15, 2010.  The program is limited to a minimum of 8 and a maximum of 20 athletes.
