From the reviews
Real deal gym. I've trained at gyms across the US and this place belongs with the best of them. I frequent the Muay Thai classes but have done boxing and BJJ as well. Every coach is incredibly respectful, helpful, and more than willing to answer questions.
I moved to Houston for 4 months and I could not have chosen a better boxing gym. This is one of the best gyms I have ever been to. The coaches are active and former fighters that will work with you no matter what level you. Cannot recommend this gym enough. Thank you to all of the coaches for a great experience.
I’ve been training at Main Street Boxing and Muay Thai for over 8 years, focusing on striking and MMA under Kru Bob Perez, and it has been an absolute game-changer for my skills and my life. Kru Bob leveled up my technique incredibly, pushing me to heights I never thought possible.
Mainstreet boxing changed me and my brother’s life! That place got us in the best shape physically & mentally! It was very intimidating when we first started becuz this is a real fight gym w real fighters, so we’re like, “yah, I don’t know about this spot?!?
New to kickboxing? Start at Main Street Boxing & Muay Thai
Main Street Boxing & Muay Thai 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 Main Street Boxing & Muay Thai
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.
