From the reviews

We were looking for a place for our son to learn martial arts. He had taken some ninja tumbling classes as well as boxing and karate at some gyms but they didn't really have structure. Adventure Martial Arts not only provided that but so much more.

★★★★★ — Megan, Nov 2025

Clean and well lit location, Instructors are fair and good with there students. My 5 year old son is in class and enjoys coming. They learn respect and self defense and still have fun. Covid protocols are in place - instructors wear masks and all adults in the gallery must wear masks and maintain distance if possible.

★★★★★ — Joseph, Oct 2020

For us its a family affair. My two children take karate here. My husband and I were very impressed wth Sensi Sonny and Sensi Lora. Both terrific with children. I love how they don't baby their student, rather push, coach and encourage them to be their best. Life lessons interwoven throughout each class.

★★★★★ — Olivia, Feb 2026

Adventure MMA has been a game changer and lifestyle changer for our family! I can not rave enough about ALL the Sensais. The facility and equipment is always clean. And best friendly and family environment we didn’t know we needed. The support is super strong and they want you/ your child to succeed.

New to kickboxing? Start at Adventure Martial Arts

Adventure 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 Adventure 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.

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.
