From the reviews
We have both our son (8yrs old) and daughter (6yrs old) enrolled at Premier Martial Arts and they love it. Coach Caleb and Coach Houston are great, they do a great job at keeping the kids interested in class with not only martial arts, but also special drills, games and "mat talks".
Our 4-year old son Ryan has been attending classes at PMA Rancho Bernardo for almost six months. At first he was somewhat hesitant to go, but now he goes willingly. We have noticed improvements in his self-confidence and respect, and he is more outgoing now.
My daughter Braylee has been enrolled for 2 months now and she love's going every Monday and Thursday. She is learning about respect for others and how to defend herself. They have amazing instructors!!
My son has been taking karate lessons here since June of 2022, and he has fallen in love with this school. Premier Martial Arts offers a genuinely balanced, positive program to teach children self-defense and personal discipline.
New to kickboxing? Start at 7 Spears Martial Arts Academy
7 Spears Martial Arts Academy comes up as a beginner-friendly gym — noted on their own site. If you've never thrown a punch or a kick, that's exactly who a good beginners class is for. A few things worth knowing before your first week. First, you don't need to be fit or coordinated to start — you get in shape by training, not before it, and coaches scale every drill to you. Second, you won't be thrown into hard sparring — reputable gyms build the basics (stance, footwork, and punches and kicks on pads and bags) first, and any contact eases in gradually under a coach's control. Third, all fitness levels really are welcome — ask about a dedicated beginners or fundamentals class time so your first session is alongside others who are also starting out. Most gyms are happy to let you watch or try a class first, so reach out before you commit.
Your first kickboxing class at 7 Spears Martial Arts Academy
Nervous about walking into a kickboxing gym for the first time? Almost everyone is, and good coaches expect beginners to come through the door. Here's what to know. What to expect: a typical first class is a warm-up, then drilling the basics — stance, footwork, and punches and kicks on pads or a heavy bag — not hard sparring. Go at your own pace and rest whenever you need to; no one will bat an eye. What to wear: comfortable athletic clothes you can move and sweat in, and supportive trainers. What to bring: water, and hand wraps and gloves if you have them — many gyms lend loaner gloves for a first class, so it's worth asking when you call. As you keep training you'll add your own gloves and wraps (and shin guards once you start sparring). Sparring is optional and eases in gradually, once your basics are solid. Arrive 10–15 minutes early to sign a waiver and meet the coach. It gets easier fast — most people feel far more at home by their third class.
