What to Expect: The schools are all about energy. When you walk in the door of one of these schools, there may be techno or rock music playing. These schools tend to be very clean and well equipped. Many offer matted training floors, weights, cardio equipment and nicely appointed locker rooms.

These martial arts schools are the place to go when you want to get in shape, have fun and learn new things, but aren't particularly interested in all the old fashioned cultural or full contact stuff.

Styles You Might See: This varies. These facilities can be really any style. What makes them different is the fact that they focus primarily on fitness and offer many different classes and programs.
Things to Remember: These schools are all about customer service. They will usually bend over backwards to ensure you are happy with your training.
