From the reviews

I started almost 3 months ago with personal training classes with my trainer/coach Daniel. I am so happy I made the choice to come here. Daniel has helped me reach fitness goals I never thought I could by myself. After having my baby I needed someone to help motivate me and set me in a path.

I have been working out at this gym since Jan. Both Daniel and Jose are very professional and motivating coaches. Great pricing, great work outs. Everyday it’s something new and challenging. From core bootcamp, kickboxing, mma, it has everything you need and the hours are very accommodating.

★★★★★ — Robert, Aug 2018

I absolutely recommend this gym. I love the trainers, Daniel & Jose. They continuously push me and motivate me to strive for my fitness goals. I am more fit and healthy now than I was in my 20’s. The classes are not too big which means I get one on one attention and the people are friendly.

★★★★★ — Cristina, Aug 2018

Great work outs completely works out every part of your body! Recuperating from knee surgery he has been mindful to modify work outs for me totally appreciate that! The location hours are perfect for my busy schedule! Danny is very knowledgeable in all aspects of MMA and fitness! Great classes for little ones too!

Your first kickboxing class at El Leon BJJ and 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.
