About Poulsbo Kickboxing

Kitsap Martial Arts is home to Poulsbo Kickboxing (PBOKBX)—where you can have a great time while getting into the best shape of your life.

The benefits of kickboxing are well-documented: it’s a full-body workout that engages all major muscle groups. Regular kickboxing can help you meet fitness goals by building strength, increasing stamina, and improving coordination—all while burning over 300 calories in just 30 minutes!

Poulsbo Kickboxing is the only cardio kickboxing studio in Kitsap County. With classes at Poulsbo Kickboxing, students experience the power of an incredible aerobic workout that can help them:

  • Reach fitness goals, including building/toning muscle, improving coordination, or losing weight
  • Increase strength, flexibility, agility, and stamina

Poulsbo Kickboxing believes kickboxing is for every body.  Classes are challenging and rewarding, while being highly accessible no matter fitness level, age or previous injury. The instructors pride themselves on creating a safe and supportive environment where students can explore the movements and push themselves towards constant improvement.

The unique brand of cardio classes available at Poulsbo Kickboxing not only builds muscle, but also community. Classes are kept small enough for one-on-one instruction as needed, and students are urged to motivate and help one another master the moves and achieve fitness goals. All this while having fun, moving to the music, and punching out the stresses of the day.

Poulsbo Kickboxing Coaches

Melanie Stroud, Poulsbo Kickboxing program manager and instructor

Melanie Stroud

PBOKBX Manager and Instructor

Melanie found kickboxing over half a decade ago and she’s been punching out her fitness goals and daily stressors ever since.

Using her day job skills as a voice and music teacher, Melanie fosters a welcoming and encouraging environment at PBOKBX. She understands that when people feel safe, strong, and supported, they can become the very best version of themselves.

When she isn’t teaching students or dreaming up new kickboxing routines (often while lying in bed!), she can be found exploring the trails and walking paths of the Pacific Northwest with friends and family, including her three kids and black Labrador, Mona.

While she proudly sports her (all-black) PBOKBX gear to every class, her favorite color is turquoise, which she’ll wear to commemorate her 500th kickboxing class—a goal she’s hoping to reach in time for her 40th birthday later in 2022!

Erica Williams

PBO KBX Instructor

Many people start working out to lose weight, but it can be hard to maintain motivation. Erica found hers with kickboxing! Just six months after entering her first class, Erica began training as an instructor. Now, several years later, she continues to enjoy helping her students have fun while meeting their fitness goals.

In addition to her kickboxing routine, Erica lifts weights several times a week all while maintaining a busy schedule, which includes working towards a degree in Medical Assisting and helping out with the Tracyton Peewee Sport Association.

A Texas native, she met her husband when they were both in middle school. The couple has two kids and moved to Washington ten years ago on a military deployment.
