From the reviews

I did the Women’s Program, and this class was super super fun and very beginner friendly. The coach named Noor was incredible and so encouraging. It was my first time along with 2 other girls, and she made sure that we were comfortable and understood the basics of boxing.

★★★★★ — Nira, Feb 2024

Finding activities for your kiddo is always hit or miss. So my youngest son asked about trying martial arts classes. We didn’t have to search high and low because there was a studio near our home. The staff is professional, friendly and knowledgeable.

★★★★★ — John, Sep 2025

My two children have studied here for a year. The master Brent is very dedicated and professional. The content of the class is also very colorful, and the children like it very much. Too bad we moved and had to stop classes. Wish mikido could open a school near where we live now.

★★★★★ — Xiao, Jan 2022

We have been participating in Mikido for one year now with our now 6 year old son. He absolutely loves going to class and is so proud of his skills and accomplishments! Mikido is very flexible - you don’t have to choose just one day/one time, and the instructors are amazing with the children.

New to kickboxing? Start at MiKiDo

MiKiDo 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 MiKiDo

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.

Kickboxing is a contact sport. Warm up, pace yourself, listen to your coaches, and if you have any injuries or health concerns, mention them before class and check with a doctor if you're unsure.
