From the reviews
We have been going to this place for over 4 years and it's just getting more and more addictive - we have now 3 family members attending their classes 😊 and they truly enjoy it! I don't think places like this should be judged only by customer service - but more by the teaching style.
Have been training here for years. Can't ask for a better school. I bring 2 kids to class all year and they love it.
My daughter Nahla has been coming here for almost two years. When she first started we would do mitts at home and she did okay. However after a year or so of training, her punches were on point, and her form had dramatically improved.
Great culture of practicioners, classes available for different age groups in the family. Offered are complimentary styles of Kenpo, BJJ, Muay Thai, and lesser known but growing FMA. Dedicated knowledgeable instructors and advanced students, some of whom have utilized their skill sets in real-world application.
New to kickboxing? Start at Bothell Martial Arts Academy
Bothell 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 Bothell 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.
