From the reviews
Dojo Sante is a beyond exceptional school. I have 2 children that attend and they absolutely love it. They look forward to each class and have displayed a great deal of growth in multiple aspects since joining just a short time ago. They absolutely eulogize their Seneis and treat them with the utmost respect.
We absolutely LOVE Dojo Sante and Sensei Matt. My son has been taking karate lessons there for 4 years and he has learned way more than just karate. He has more confidence than when he started and that is due to the lessons he learns in class.
My six year old son has been studying at Dojo Sante Martial Arts for about 10 months now and overall the experience has been amazing. I’m truly awed by how much he has gotten out of studying at Dojo Sante, particularly around leadership, helping others, mindfulness and gratitude.
What my family likes most about Dojo Sante is how the staff makes learning fun, all while instilling respect and confidence in each of the students. The senseis do a great job keeping everyone engaged by making each class lively and exciting.
New to kickboxing? Start at Dojo Sante
Dojo Sante 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 Dojo Sante
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.
