From the reviews
Joined Professor Lovato’s school a few months ago and am really enjoying training here. As an older brown belt from another affiliation, I was a little apprehensive joining but have been made to feel very welcome.
We have been around Lovato's family for few years now. After a short pause, we're back, my son absolutely loves coming to class and interact with all the kids and coaches. Lovato BJJ is not only a great place to bring your kids to train how to defend themselves but also to learn discipline and respect to others.
It probably goes without saying that the jujitsu at Lovato’s is top tier. And of course, the facility is state of the art and beautiful. But the real value of Lovato’s can be found in the people inside that stunning facility.
World class facility, instruction, and training! You wont find anything better. Lovato's School of BJJ/MMA has truly changed my life. They offer amazing classes for kids and adults from beginners to those searching for next level advanced training. Their class times are designed to cater to so many different schedules.
New to kickboxing? Start at Lovato's School of BJJ & MMA
Lovato's School of BJJ & MMA 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 Lovato's School of BJJ & MMA
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.
