Do I need experience to start?
Not at all. Our beginner-friendly classes are designed for people completely new to Muay Thai and fitness training.
What should I bring to my first class?
Bring comfortable workout clothes, and water is a good start. If you already have equipment feel free to bring it, but beginners are not expected to own all equipment right away.
What should I expect?
Expect a welcoming environment focused on learning, improving, and working hard together. Classes typically include warm-ups, technique instruction, drills, and conditioning.
Is Muay Thai a good workout?
Absolutely. Muay Thai is a full-body workout that improves cardiovascular endurance, strength, coordination, balance, flexibility, and overall fitness while teaching practical self-defense skills.
Will I get hit?
Only if you want to. Our Fundamentals classes are technique and fitness based with students holding pads for each other to do drills. Once you have a good grasp on the fundamentals our Intermediate classes incorporate controlled, live drills with a partner. Sparring only takes place in our advanced classes.
Do I have to compete?
Not at all. While some students choose to compete, most train for fitness, self-defense, stress relief, skill development, and personal challenge. You do not need to compete to enjoy or benefit from training.
Are there gym rules I should know?
Yes. Please take a moment to review our gym rules before attending class so everyone can train safely and respectfully. Following gym etiquette helps us maintain a positive environment for beginners, competitors, and everyone in between.
