From the reviews
Our family has been part of this gym community for nearly 5 years. It has been a phenomenal journey for us. From watching my husband hit the mats, to my kids joining BJJ, me becoming a coach and leading the WOD, my daughter getting her first job there, and now all of us on the mats together!
Phenomenal gym. Everything you could need to get a solid workout. The community is amazing and the class selections are off the chart. Cannot say enough good things about this facility and the family that keeps it running. Huge blessing to the community.
The Greatest Gym—Like Family! This is hands down the BEST gym I’ve ever been to! It has everything—top-notch jiu-jitsu, wrestling, kickboxing, and a full gym with all the equipment you need. But what really sets it apart is the incredible community.

New to kickboxing? Start at Battle Ground Martial Arts Academy
Battle Ground Martial Arts Academy 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 Battle Ground Martial Arts Academy
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.
