Services
Most of the classes that we offer at ArtFit are designed to improve physical fitness as well as skill. We also offer classes and personal training that target specific areas of fitness. Our focus is the health and fitness of the women in Lubbock along with the professionalism of training remarkable dancers.
The Defensive Tactics class at ArtFit goes beyond the typical self-defense course. It is designed to provide the people of Lubbock with tactics and training in order to decrease the possibility of a physical or close quarters attack and to provide the student with viable self defense skills in the event they become necessary.
Gone are the days of Feudal Japan with their noble warrior class and their code of "bushido". The legends and the ideals of the Samurai, however, still intrigue people of our modern cultural. ArtFit can take you on a trip back in time to the era of the Samurai with authentic Samurai swordsmanship taught today just as it was in 1590.
The adult Shotokan class teaches traditional Japanese karate in a historical, yet, interesting way. This is a great class for adults who are looking to improve their fitness level while learning self-defense in a practical and traditional way. The Kid's Karate class teaches traditional karate with a focus on self-defense in a fun and safe environment.
Our Lubbock Kids Karate class educates children in traditional Shotokan karate with an emphasis on self-defense. Children and teenagers will not only learn self-defense and respect, but will also acquire self-discipline, improve physical fitness and athletic abilities, and develop an aptitude for leadership.

This place is not only professional but they make you feel like family. Very well educated in what they teach. My son loves this place and his sensei's. He can't wait to go back. Sensei Walt is amazing with kids and adults. I cannot express enough how appreciative I am for what he and his instructor's have done to help my son.

I came to Artfit not knowing what to expect. I had just moved to Lubbock. I was dealing with a lot of stress, emotionally worn out and unhappy with how I looked. In an effort to tackle at least one of these issues I decided to go to a conventional gym. Soon found out that I don't know anything about using weights or how to approach cardio training. I decided to look for classes so there would be some guidance and structure to my workout. I saw Artfit offered pole. The first class was free so I thought, "Why not?" I have to say, I am so glad I did. Artfit offers quality instruction in a variety

The best place in West Texas for tactical defense and martial arts- for all ages! Walt is an amazing instructor who is calm, but firm with his training, and has taught myself, my kids, and my wife. He also has multiple national and world titles to his name, as well as instructing many law enforcement officers, far and near.

I started going here for the pole classes. Had such a great time! Very nice people and they definitely make it a good time while you are learning. I have a friend that comes for the silks classes and she loves it. Definitely making this a habit to come every Wednesday or Monday for the pole classes.

I only have the best to say about ArtFit. I began my time at ArtFit in Lubbock as a kinesiology intern in 2015-16. Little did I know at the time, how much of an impact they would have on my future success. Cheryl was crucial in mentoring me and providing me with as many opportunities as she could provide. Walt gave me the courage and discipline that I so desperately needed. ArtFit offers Lubbock a variety of classes and skills that are unmatched and hard to find in west Texas. I can honestly say, I would not be where I am now if it were not for the caring nature of the Busheys. Whether your interests

"I really don't want to be here today" is not what I want to hear from an instructor. She was knowledgeable about pole, but lacked experience in teaching fitness. The warm up consisted of static leg stretches rather than a total body aerobic warm up. During which the instructor whined and complained that she wasn't in the mood to teach. She was so distracted talking about herself during the class, that she taught few tricks. Class was ended 10 minutes early because she was "over it".
Also, the entire space is cluttered and filthy. It's easy to trip over a variety

The most fun you will ever have while still exercising. These instructors are kind, fun, and very knowledgeable. I love learning new skills, and there are so many great and challenging classes to choose from. The instructors are patient, encouraging, and always put the safety of their students first. I highly recommend ARTFIT to everyone, regardless of your strength or experience you will learn lots, and feel great about yourself.

If you are interested in martial arts or dance this place is worth a sincere look. I cant speak personally for the dance. The martial arts are superb! Come in and observe or give a class a try. Visit with Walt for a few minutes. His qualifications are unmatched. In three months I have learned a massive amount of techniques. I am blown away by the quality of the material and I enjoy the community at the school. I could rave more about my experience but the best thing you could do is stop by and see for yourself.

I have been taking classes at ArtFit for over a year, and it's the best gift I've ever given myself! I have gotten so much stronger and confident in what my body can do! Don't worry if you think you don't have any upper body strength or coordination, that's why you go to class! I recommend the pole fitness and aerial silks class to ANYONE, regardless of shape/size/fitness level!
