Coach Anthony has really brought my daughter out of her shell. I've watched him work with experienced people and newbies and he is always professional and supportive. This gym goes hard so be ready.
I was BLESSED to have the opportunity to train here for a week, while staying in Lufkin. I CANNOT say enough good things about this gym. AMAZING Jiu-Jitsu program and world class striking as well. The Owner and Head Coach Anthony is a world class fighter and has a Plethora of knowledge for every level of the game.
ET is a great place to train. They offer BJJ, MMA, Muay Thai, and fitness. They offer classes for young , age 6, to old, I’m 70. A variety of times both mornings and late afternoon and evenings. Coaches will work with you based on your level of fitness. They even have a BJJ class for ladies only!
These guys are top notch. Family friendly and lots of options for mental, emotional and physical health care! Anthony and Regina are the best. ❤ Come visit for any class - can't wait for BUTI YOGA and the new coming studio!!! P.s. - they have a drink and snack bar with great choices!
New to kickboxing? Start at ET Fight Academy
ET Fight Academy 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 ET Fight Academy
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.
