★★★★★ — Payton, Aug 2023

I can't imagine our family without Pallen's. We started with lessons for our twin boys two years ago and it's been a life saver. I love that Pallen's focuses on the whole child, integrating character lessons into each month. The entire Pallen Family goes above and beyond for all of their students.

★★★★★ — Corissa, Jul 2020

Pallen’s was recommended by another parent with a child on the spectrum and they have been an awesome experience for my son. It is family run and they treat you like family in a warm and welcoming atmosphere that’s centered on kindness and respect.

Your first kickboxing class at Pallen's 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.
