From the reviews
Excellent instructors, both morning and Sunday classes, haven't had a chance yet to go to afternoon weekday classes yet but they have the same instructor as the Sunday classes so I have confidence they'll be great!
We absolutely love Hector! He is the best personal trainer I ever had! He is so encouraging, knowledgeable, fit and most of all patient. I’m not an easy client but he motivates me and now I’m stronger and I’m losing weight!
I was visiting from Wisconsin and had the opportunity to drop in for the Muay Thai classes—what a great experience! From the moment I walked in, I was welcomed into a supportive and friendly environment. The culture here is top-notch, with a great group of people.
This is one of the best martial arts school I’ve attended in NJ. This is my 3rd week and I have nothing but positives to mention. Jay (owner) coaches bjj himself. Unlike other schools, he monitors you when you’re working and practicing moves. He corrects and explains you if you’re making mistakes.
New to kickboxing? Start at NJ United Mixed Martial Arts
NJ United Mixed Martial Arts 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 NJ United Mixed 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.
