From the reviews
I had watched Kickboxer and Ongbak before my first Muay Thai trial class, just in case. As a noob in his mid 30s, I never imagined the amount of hardwork and dedication one would need to learn Muay Thai. In spite of the sweat and tears, I continued to persevere.
Our son has been loving iMA since he started taking classes there in early 2022. The coaches are wonderful: committed, caring and bring out the best in the students in every class. They make sure to get to know each student (and the parents) personally.
We have been coming to this gym for just under a year. 10/10 recommend. The facility is super clean and organized and my son looks forward to coming to class and is really proud of what he has done & it increases confidence.
Coach Juliana is amazing! She does an exceptional job every term while my daughter attends the camp. She not only takes care of my daughter but also understands her feelings and shows her so much respect. My daughter always feels great after class, and I have never seen her upset after a day at camp.
New to kickboxing? Start at iMA Sports Novi
iMA Sports Novi 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 iMA Sports Novi
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.
