From the reviews
I just signed my 8 year old son up with this dojo and I have to say it has the best teaching techniques and super affordable! My son has severe ADHD and even the teacher, Mr. Burns, is so patient with him and calm! My son will be going here for a long time and hopefully my other little one once she's ready!
There are no words for how awesome our experience has been at Burns Martial Arts. I’ve personally witnessed Coach Austin do amazing work with all age groups and types of training. He’s very personable and encouraging. While I don’t know every member’s name (he does), he creates an atmosphere that feels like family.
Great Gym, Especially for little ones!! I have put my 4 year old in so many classes and we have had to leave some because she is quite active and struggles to pay attention. Both my girls (4, 8) Absolutely Love going to class!
Great Gym, Especially for little ones!! My 5 year old Absolutely Love going to class! She is learning so much beyond the physical skills and it's the first time I feel comfortable enough to trust the coaches with my 5 year old 🥰!!!! Both Austin (owner) and his assistant coach Cypress are Excellent with her 😊
New to kickboxing? Start at Burns martial arts
Burns martial arts 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 Burns 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.
