From the reviews
I cannot say enough good things about Carolina combat. My (8 year old) son started kickboxing in late December. His couch Bryan is incredible. The encouragement, the love for the sport and the never ending drive for them to all be their best is nothing short of admirable.
If you're looking for a great training environment, great training partners and world class instruction then look no further than Carolina Combat Sports. Coach Tom is one of the best in the area and a wealth of knowledge.
Great gym with great people. Whether you’re a beginner, or an aspiring combat sports competitor, this gym has everything. Tom and the rest of the team are always willing to help no matter the question and are very friendly. Couldn’t recommend CCS enough.
The staff is amazing. I go to the boot camp class once or twice per week usually coached by Shameek Harvey while my son is in the kids class coached by the local legend Bryan Battle. From the owner down this place is exceptional.
New to kickboxing? Start at Carolina Combat Sports and Fitness
Carolina Combat Sports and Fitness comes up as a beginner-friendly gym, going by their listing and members’ reviews. 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 Carolina Combat Sports 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.
