From the reviews
I had an amazing experience at Brothers MMA! The coaches were not only knowledgeable but also incredibly motivating. The facility was clean and well-maintained. I loved the variety of classes they offered, from fitness to MMA and boxing. I have seen significant improvements in my strength and technique since joining.
Solid gym, the teachers are extremely inclusive and they know how to push you to your potential. If you want to seriously get in shape, learn discipline, respect, and proper fighting technique I highly recommend this gym. Only negative thing I have is I wish I could go more!!
Great place! Very welcoming and knowledgeable world-class coaching staff - brothers have tons of experience and love to share their passion for MMA. Amazing club to start as an adult or child. Excellent training in friendly, positive atmosphere. Highly recommend!!!
Comprehensive work out programs for kids, youth and adults. Classes are curated to fit any busy schedule. Great option for parents to work out while the kids are in class.
New to kickboxing? Start at Brothers MMA GYM
Brothers MMA GYM 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 Brothers MMA GYM
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.
