Dear Friend,

Have you been thinking about finding a martial arts school in Chicago, to pick up some self-defense skills while you get in shape?

Or, are you looking for a new workout... one that never gets boring or dull, where you get REAL results in a very short period of time?

Then let me introduce you to a brand new concept on the fitness scene in Chicago…

Martial Arts and Kettlebell Training at Rhodes Fusion Fitness - Right Here in the Heart of Chicago!

What You'll Get From Our Programs:

• Drop Inches From Your Hips, Waist and Thighs - Martial arts and kettlebell classes are a great way to quickly shed fat from all those problems areas... the gut and chest for guys, and the butt and thighs for women.

• Tone and Firm Your Entire Body - Martial arts and kettlebell training will tone and firm your entire body... Both activities engage all the major muscle groups, and both are great for increasing muscle tone and getting rid of sagging areas after you've lost weight.

• Increase Strength - Let me tell you, nothing builds real, functional strength like kettlebells. And, when you combine that with the workout you get from martial arts training exercises, you've got one heck of a great workout that beats any gym routine hands down!

• Increase Flexibility - Sitting at a desk all day, or doing repetitious tasks can really make your muscles tight. Ever have a dull ache in your lower back? Chances are good some of that pain is due to tight hip flexors... As a practicing chiropractor, I know how beneficial flexibility training is for problems like back pain - that's why we integrate flexibility training into every class. You'll feel better after just one class!

• Finally... Have Fun Working Out! - There's nothing worse than getting up in the morning or getting off work and heading to another boring gym workout... It's something you know you have to do, but it can become drudgery over time. That's why we make sure every one of our workouts is challenging, fast-paced, and upbeat. At the end of class, you'll find yourself actually wanting to come back for your next workout!

Kettlebell Training: A Central Part of Our Programs at Rhodes Fusion Fitness

So just what the heck are kettlebells?

Kettlebells are spherical weights with a handle on top...

They can be lifted, pressed, and swung just about any way you can imagine...

That's what makes them so much more versatile and effective than simple free weights.

They've been called the hottest fitness workout for achieving maximum results in minimal time...

That's because you'll get awesome results with kettlebells, with just a few simple yet functional movements.

"I have been a gym rat my whole life and have worked with lots of instructors. After I turned 40 and had two children with a sixty pound weight gain each time, a friend recommended that I work with Prentiss.

He is a smart, focused, serious martial arts and kettlebell expert. His well planned martial arts and kettlebell training sessions allowed me to gain strength, confidence, and I received incredible workouts.

Check him out... He is the best!"

"I have worked with Prentiss for 2 years and have achieved amazing results from working with him. He is a patient, knowledgeable, and motivating instructor. Not only has my overall strength increased, but my endurance in other activities and range of motion have improved as well."

-Debbie Levinthal, River Forest, IL

" I learned a lot of practical knowledge that I could use in everyday situations to protect myself.  Being a person with some physical limitations, Prentiss was able to teach me to overcome some of my weakness to become a stronger person.  I would recommend him to people of all ages with a variety of physical abilities."
