From the reviews

My son started taking classes here at age 3. He was an extremely energetic kid that needed focus and guidance on how to control his body, quiet his mind, and channel emotions positively. Bruce Mccory’s martial arts gave him all of this and more in the last year and a half.

★★★★★ — Serena, Jan 2024

My child’s worked with Master McCorry’s team since last year. They’re a fantastic organization, working closely with each student to develop their skills, coordination , and fitness.

★★★★★ — Bill, Jan 2021

Our son has been attending since he was a little over 3 years old, he loves being a little ninja and can’t wait to join the big kids! Sandra and the other instructors are so patient with the young ones and we feel our son has learned so much!

★★★★★ — Amanda, Feb 2024

Our two boys have been attending classes for about 2 years now. What we love about Bruce McCorry's is the family atmosphere, and the very high instructor to student ratio. The turnover of both students and instructors is very low, so it feels like a family rather than a YMCA class or town sports team.

★★★★★ — Chris, Mar 2020

Your first kickboxing class at Bruce McCorry's Martial Arts

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.
