I've been going to Finney's for a year now and absolutely love it. The kickboxing and boxing classes are the real deal here - not some phony "cardio kickboxing" class you'd find at another gym. The instructors are real fighters and the teaching is solid.

★★★★★ — Christine, Jan 2019

Finneys may be a small company but they do offer some great services. Their class are challenging and a learning experience. I appreciate all I learned from Finneys. They even understood when I had trouble paying my bill. They talked to me and we worked out away to pay my gym membership.

★★★★★ — Kyle, Aug 2020

Great people! Great instruction and the schedule fits well into family life. Been a member for less than a year, but I'm enjoying the experience and have felt welcomed from day one. Check it out for yourself! Intro classes available.

★★★★★ — Stephen, Oct 2023

Great gym with a great atmosphere! The staff is always super welcoming and friendly. I currently work with Rachael, my personal trainer, and couldn’t recommend her more. She pushes me to achieve my fitness goals and see results!

New to kickboxing? Start at Finney's St. Louis MMA, Kickboxing, Boxing and Jiu-Jitsu

Finney's St. Louis MMA, Kickboxing, Boxing and Jiu-Jitsu 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 Finney's St. Louis MMA, Kickboxing, Boxing and Jiu-Jitsu

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.
