From the reviews

From an absolute beginners perspective I loved the place. They made me comfortable learning as a beginner and helped me and my buddy to get oriented with jui jitsu for our first time. It was a lot of fun and we look forward to acquiring a new skill set.

★★★★★ — Tonya, Sep 2018

I can't say enough about this place but I'll try... The atmosphere is very supportive and the staff, coaches and students are very humble, professional and well mannered. All classes get along and work with each other and is very much Tribe like.

★★★★★ — Ian, Mar 2017

My eight year old son loves the classes here at Octane MMA. All of the instructors are caring and great with the children. The instructors are not just teaching techniques, they're teaching the kids about life situations and how to be respectful.

New to kickboxing? Start at Octane Martial Arts

Octane Martial Arts 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 Octane 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.
