From the reviews
My children began their journey at Kickside in 2017. When my oldest was still a white belt, he wanted to quit. It was a difficult moment, and it would have been easy to leave. The instructors did not let him give up. Ms. Reed encouraged him with patience and consistency, and we worked together to help him push forward.
My family has trained at Kickside Martial Arts for over 7 years. Three of us have earned a black belt and the youngest has just begun her martial arts journey. The class schedule offers great flexibility for our busy schedule. We can attend classes in the Hillsborough, Montgomery, or Branchburg locations.
We have had such a wonderful experience at kickside martial arts. My son is on the autism spectrum, and from the very beginning the instructors truly met him where he is. They are patient, understanding, and incredibly encouraging, taking the time to help him learn at his own pace while still motivating him to grow.
We are extremely happy with our experience at Kickside Martial Arts! My son has been learning Taekwondo here, and the transformation we’ve seen in him has been truly amazing.
Your first kickboxing class at Kickside Martial Arts
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.
