From the reviews
This is the best MMA gym in the area hands down. I've been there for years and the coaching staff is great, extremely knowledgeable, and friendly. My sons has been here for the last 5+ years and it's become a second home. Loves every second of kids BJJ. Great classes for little kids now too.
I’ve been training at this gym for 7 months at this point and so far my experience here has been amazing. This mixed martial arts gym is well suited for all experience levels and is very welcoming to newcomers.
Hi Beacon! Thank you so much for being the most amazing possible training space this past year. I trained boxing and muay thai at Beacon from January 2023 until February 2024, and it broke my heart not to renew my membership there....
It is very family friendly. I’ve had my family and extended family join. There are top tier practitioners/instructors with high standards for all levels. Its a great way to add years to anyone’s life and so much more.
New to kickboxing? Start at Beacon Mixed Martial Arts and Fitness
Beacon Mixed Martial Arts and Fitness 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 Beacon Mixed Martial Arts and Fitness
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.
