From the reviews

Next level martial arts is not just for young kids. My 17 year old takes Muay Thai classes and he LOVES going here 3 times a week. It says a lot about the instructors to get a teenager to look forward to all the classes. He is not only shown how to succeed on the mat, but off the mat as well.

My son started almost a year ago at next level (age 5). Right from the start we felt this class was going to be great for our son. The owner is very involved and professional. All the coaches have been great. They have a lot of patience and you can tell they really do enjoy teaching their young minds.

★★★★★ — Courtney, Oct 2022

My 4 year old son is a new addition to Next Levels little ninjas class, and since joining, it has been such a positive experience for not only my son but myself as well. The environment is so positive, encouraging, and supportive. The coaches really care about each child individually and there are so many children.

★★★★★ — Autumn, Aug 2025

I've been taking classes here for 6 months and I absolutely love it! I continue to learn something every week, they help me keep up with my personal fitness goals, and I feel like I'm really involved in challenges that help me to feel more confident and personally successful.

Your first kickboxing class at Next Level 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.

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.
