Thank you! for your interest in becoming a Certified KoBu Instructor.

Kobu can be tailored to the needs of Martial Art or Fitness Instructor

It can be used solely as an exercise program to get in shape and improve one’s fitness level without emphasis on self-defense, or it can be utilized as a self-defense escape technique program that also has fitness benefits. You can incorporate KoBu into your curriculum because it’s easy to tailor it to your current market. KoBu can be implemented as a samurai-kickboxing cardio class or it can be used as a self-defense course for those that are interested in self-defense but do not wish to get a belt rank in the martial arts.
