Balmain, NSW -- (SBWIRE) -- 05/31/2016 -- Northstar Martial Arts – an initiative of Andy Dickinson - offers the best martial art programs for fitness, plus increasing your confidence and awareness. Northstar Ju-Jitsu offers a great workout, but also mind and spiritual practices you won't get in any gym.

Getting into shape is not an easy process. Many people look for a quick fix to their weight or fitness issues. This is why some people opt to go to the gym and even to hire personal trainers. But what if you cannot hire a personal trainer in inner west due to constraints like finances? Here are some of the reasons why martial arts is better than getting a personal trainer.

Other than getting into shape or improving fitness, martial arts teaches students important life skills like self defence. We live in a world that is full of people who are not friendly, especially to women. Women are seen as weak and that is why most people take advantage of them. The best thing about martial arts is that women can train too.

With martial arts, students also learn meditation and ways of calming mind and strengthening your spirit. It also helps to develop a positive direction with the goals in life. A personal trainer will only focus in your physical appearance without any positive direction in other inner aspects of life.

In martial arts, students train in a group so it's not so expensive compared to the amount personal trainers charge. Additionally, most personal trainers are found in gyms, so you have to be a member in that particular gym which will be an extra charge. It's also not easy to attach the amount you are being charged with the level of dedication, knowledge or personal commitment of your trainer.

When practicing martial arts, students enjoy more social interactions compared to being assisted by a personal trainer to lift weights or run on the treadmill. Students train with other people making the session very exciting and motivating.

People tend to make fun of martial arts because they think that it's just karate. What they don't know is that martial arts have many forms. Northstar Ju Jitsu combines Ju Jitsu, Taekwondo, Judo and kick boxing. Northstar is more beneficial compared to hiring personal trainers because students get strong and healthy physically, mentally and spiritually.
