Pick any class marked beginner. Your first one is free, and the gloves are on us.
Four ways
to train.
Boxing
Footwork, defense and the jab first. Pad work every class, sparring only when you ask for it.
Muay Thai
Kicks, knees, elbows and the clinch. Brutal on the bag, friendly in the room.
Jiu-Jitsu
Gi and no-gi. Learn to stay calm on your back, then learn to get off it.
MMA
Putting it together. For people with a few months in at least one of the above.
Your first class, no surprises.
- Get here 15 minutes earlyWe'll wrap your hands and find you gloves that fit. Just bring water.
- Warm up with everyoneJump rope, shadowboxing, stretching. Go at your own pace.
- Learn the basics with a coachStance, the jab, the cross. A coach checks your form one on one.
- Hit pads, not peopleNobody spars in their first month unless they ask. That's a rule.

I walked in at 41, out of shape and terrified. Two years later I'm still here four days a week.Paula G.Boxing, member since 2024
Best coaching I've had in any sport. They fix your stance before you even know it's wrong.
My daughter is 9 and the kids class is the highlight of her week. Mine too, honestly.
See you
