Started due to having friends in the gym. I've had a great experience every single time I've attended class! Stephanie and the other instructors are attentive and care about you and your goals. The class fosters an engaging and constructive environment and community.

My six year old has been attending Seven Spears for over a year now. Since starting, he has become more focussed, disciplined and told me to write "it is so fun!" It really is a family and they are very communicative and patient with the little ones!

Seven Spears has an AMAZING kids program. A friend highly recommended we check this place out and so happy we did. My son has been going here for the past 6 months and LOVES it. We started with the kids Muay Thai program and just added the kids Jiu-Jitsu program as well.

New to kickboxing? Start at 7 Spears Martial Arts and Muay Thai

7 Spears Martial Arts and Muay Thai 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 and Muay Thai

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.

Kickboxing is a contact sport. Warm up, pace yourself, listen to your coaches, and if you have any injuries or health concerns, mention them before class and check with a doctor if you're unsure.
