From the reviews
Master Austin and other instructors are nothing short of amazing. They know how to teach to all levels of ages and abilities. My seven year old son has been taking part in these classes for six months now. I am continually being amazed at how they are able to encourage and effectively motivate all of the students.
My daughter is loving martial arts at Cutting Edge. She has received her uniform and earned her first stripe the same day. She enjoys the games and when she got home her dad was play fighting her and she landed a good solid punch after just 3 classes, he was very impressed.
My son loves taking classes at Cutting Edge. All of the instructors are patient and respectful. My son has learned that hard work and practice pays off. We highly recommend this dojang!
I cannot recommend CEMA enough! I needed immediate self-defense training, and was looking for a place that offered material I could use from my first class onwards. The class is a welcoming, non-judgmental, environment where you can thrive -- regardless of your gender or current fitness level.
New to kickboxing? Start at Cutting Edge Martial Arts
Cutting Edge 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 Cutting Edge 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.
