From the reviews

Great place for beginners, no matter the age. I’m 23 years old, last year I had no fighting experience or training. Within less than 30 days Coach Randy has gotten me to the point where I’m confident in my fighting (Muay Thai) ability. He pushes you when necessary and is a kind hearted, generous man.

★★★★★ — Caleb, Nov 2024

I’ve had the chance to train with Viet and I can honestly say he’s a very knowledgeable and technical instructor. His jiu jitsu is very well rounded, combining strong old school fundamentals with modern techniques and systems.

★★★★★ — Andy, Mar 2026

I’ve been training for almost an entire year under Coach Randy, and not only can I say he’s a fantastic coach, but he’s the best I’ve ever had. My experiences under the staff in this gym have been extremely exceptional.

★★★★★ — Marcus, Sep 2024

I have been training here Muay Thai for about 4-5 months. And I must say I love the idea of progressing and the people that come with it. I definitely felt more confident and prepared for my first competition. Viet is a really dedicated and professional instructor. If your looking for a good MMA gym, this the one!

New to kickboxing? Start at Cloud Nine MMA

Cloud Nine MMA 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 Cloud Nine MMA

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.
