From the reviews
We looked at a few academy's in the Salinas area and decided on Kugtar. Initially for our 6 year old daughter to try out. Let me say after her first week trying it out she was hooked and so were we. The school is very welcoming and the kids program made it easy for my daughter to feel right at home immediately.
I literally just came here about two years ago to find something to do to keep me active but ended up finding so much more. Kugtar MMA offers great classes for children, teens, and adults where you don't just get fit, you learn an art, gain confidence, make friends, and get healthier overall.
I joined Kugtar MMA a year ago after a while of searching for the right place to train. Aside from being kept clean and sanitary, It has a variety of Martial Arts classes you can take as well as just working out in their weight room.
I've been with Kugtar since its day one, in the early 90's. This is by far the best place to learn from. This place is my family and am proud to be a part of this place. All age groups are welcome, whether it be for fitness or sport you will not be disappointed.
Your first kickboxing class at Kugtar Mixed 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.
