If you are looking for a fast paced training session which combines fighting skills and techniques with "pedal to the metal" cardio training, Rat Pack Kickboxing is the class for you. Bring your own gloves and gear or feel free to borrow ours!

Head Instructor: Edward Arner: Rat Pack's Kickboxing program is spearheaded by former competitive kick boxer, "Kickboxing" Ed Arner. In addition to having trained extensively in both Muay Thai and American Kickboxing and having participated in numerous martial arts seminars, Ed boasts an undefeated amateur record. His unique combination of size, skill and experience make Ed a formidable athlete and competitor while his easy going personality and demeanor have made him one of the more popular at Rat Pack as evidenced by the growth of our Kickboxing program since its inception in late 2005.

Assistant Instructor :T. "Bubba" Naratil : Bubba "Bubba-licious" Naratil joined the Rat Pack staff in early 2007 following a unanimous decision win at the "Tri-State Smoker" kickboxing event in Scranton, PA. At over 6 feet tall and 265lbs, Bubba, the runner up at the 2007 Palmerton's Strongest Man Competition, has both the size and strength to intimidate any opponent yet he combines that presence with the flexibility and mobility of a much smaller athlete. This athleticism coupled with his "gentle giant" demeanor, has made Bubba a very popular instructor with the Rat Pack kickboxing crowd.
