From the reviews
I have been training at this gym since they opened and their growth is well deserved. They offer a wide variety of classes like bjj (gi and no gi), kickboxing, wrestling, etc. Ernesto and his coaches are great and have a lot of experience. The culture of the gym is great.
My husband and 12 year old daughter both train here. My daughter has been doing the kids jiu-jits class since April 2024 with Ernesto and Gage. Since then she's joined the adult kick boxing classes and adult basic BJJ class. Ernesto is phenomenal with the kids!
Love this place. My 5yr old son has been training here for about 2 months and he loves it. A friendly atmosphere and coaches are extremely nice yet stern and professional with their training. Coach Ernesto has a very special way with the kids . My son has learned and loves going to the gym.
My 11 year old has been attending for about 2 months. She has learned a lot and has gained a tremendous amount of confidence in such a short time. Ernesto is a top notch instructor especially for kids! If I could give more than 5 stars I absolutely would!
New to kickboxing? Start at Apache MMA
Apache MMA comes up as a beginner-friendly gym, going by their listing and members’ reviews. 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 Apache MMA
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.
