From the reviews
Great Dojo! My son who is 5 years old performed his very first competition at this Dojo. The moment we walked through the door the team was in place with a warm welcome! My son immediately felt accepted and performed with great confidence.
We are very happy with the little dragons class at A+ Martial Arts! My son initially had a hard time adjusting to the new setting and unfamiliar activity even though he found the class to be very fun.
Great place! Sensei Adham and Sensei Omar were very attentive and ensured the class was engaging. The first time we walked through the door, we felt very welcome. Sensei Aarsha was extremely friendly and knowledgeable.
My two daughters have been Karate students at A+ Martial Arts for about 6 months now. What drew me to this dojo is the reputation of the owners, Sensei Ashley (U.S. Olympian) and Sensei Adham (professional fighter).
New to kickboxing? Start at A+ Martial Arts
A+ Martial Arts 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 A+ Martial Arts
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.
