From the reviews

I’ve been going to Arcaro for a little over a year now, and it has been one of the most rewarding journeys for me. This is the only gym I’ve ever been consistent with, particularly because every class I’m learning and building on techniques and pushing myself to new thresholds with the support of each of the coaches…

★★★★★ — Tiffany, Mar 2026

Where to start...I have been part of this community since 2015 and could not speak more highly of Tricia Arcaro as well as her talented coaches. Most importantly, working with Tricia through her executive private coaching for the last 8 years has provided me with not just boxing experience, but an incredible set of…

★★★★★ — Jacob, Sep 2023

Arcaro Boxing has completely changed my perspective on fitness! As someone who finds traditional gyms uninspiring, I was thrilled to discover the excitement and energy of boxing. The coaches are incredibly passionate and dedicated, ensuring each class is engaging.

★★★★★ — Madhan, May 2024

This gym is life changing! When I came here for Functional Patterns training 4 years ago, I was in a back brace and unable to walk, sit, or even lay down without debilitating pain. Now, because of Tricia and FP, I have my life back!

New to kickboxing? Start at Arcaro Boxing

Arcaro Boxing 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 Arcaro Boxing

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.
