From the reviews
I have 3 sons that train Jiu-jitsu at this gym. In their time training there, they have begun to develop a lot of self-confidence & new friendships with other students. I love listening to the techniques, positionings, & mindsets they are learning at this gym.
I tried out a kickboxing class tonight and as an absolute beginner and my first time in the building I felt so welcomed. The instructor and veterans in the class all worked with me to correct my form and show me the ropes. It was an awesome workout and I had fun doing it.

Great place to train with excellent coaching and high level training partners. Wide range of classes offered at a variety of times throughout the week. Would definitely recommend trying out Neutral Ground Combat Sports!
New to kickboxing? Start at Neutral Ground West Bend
Neutral Ground West Bend 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 Neutral Ground West Bend
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.
