From the reviews
Started training here a couple of weeks ago, and it's been a great experience. This is an excellent MMA gym, highly recommend it to anyone looking to train. The instructor, Ned, is a world class teacher, and the facility is well-designed and kept super clean.
My son looks forward to Tuesdays and Thursdays every week! He loves Muay Thai and Coach Ned! If you don't know now you know. Stop in for your first class!
Hands down the best spot for kids or adults. Both my daughters have been coming here 3 months almost and they LOVE IT here. Coach Ned is on point.
Great facility and classes for all levels. Very clean, everyone is friendly and respectful. Coach Ned is experienced, helpful and encouraging which made my 14 year old nephew's first experience with MMA go great, while I got a great workout in.
New to kickboxing? Start at GFAMMA Gladiator Fight Academy
GFAMMA Gladiator Fight Academy comes up as a beginner-friendly gym, going by their listing and members’ reviews. 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 GFAMMA Gladiator 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.
