  COURSE DATES

PFS COMBAT CONDITIONING® – Kicks, Punches & Fight Basics is a one-day practical CPD course for fitness instructors, group fitness instructors and personal trainers who want to bring the energy of combat sports into their classes and PT sessions – safely, without contact and for every fitness level.

The course combines three disciplines in one programme: boxing, kickboxing and MMA-based conditioning. You will learn how fighters train to stay fast, strong, lean and mentally tough – and how to turn that into exciting, structured workouts for ordinary gym members.

Why Combat Conditioning?

  • Combat-style training is one of the most popular fitness trends in Ireland – clients love it because it is fun, intense and gives real results.
  • It builds cardio fitness, power, coordination, agility, core strength and confidence at the same time.
  • It is a great stress-reliever and keeps clients coming back – perfect for retention in clubs and for growing your PT business.
  • One qualification lets you run group classes, small-group circuits, pad-work sessions and 1:1 PT.

What you will learn

  • Punches – boxing fundamentals: stance, guard, footwork, jab, cross, hook, uppercut, body shots and combinations.
  • Kicks – kickboxing techniques: front kick, roundhouse kick, side kick, knees, and safe kick-and-punch combinations.
  • Fight basics – MMA-based conditioning: sprawls, level changes, ground-to-standing transitions, grappling-inspired core work and fighter-style circuits.
  • Defensive movement: slips, rolls, blocks and parries as fun reaction drills.
  • Pad work for instructors: how to hold pads and focus mitts safely, call combinations and coach technique.
  • Class and session design: warm-ups, rounds, intervals, partner drills and progressions for beginners to advanced clients.
  • Safety: correct technique, joint protection, hand wrapping, gloves and equipment, and adapting for different ages and fitness levels.

Who is this course for?

  • Gym and group fitness instructors who want a new, high-demand class format.
  • Personal trainers who want to add combat-style sessions to their PT offer.
  • Clubs that want to train their staff to run combat conditioning classes (staff training available on site).

Your teachers

The course is led by an experienced MMA coach together with a ProFi tutor, combining real fight-sport experience with professional fitness teaching. You learn not only how to move, but how to teach it so every client feels safe and motivated.
