From the reviews
I’ve been training at Precision for a few years now. They have a great community and classes that fit anyone’s schedule. Great confidence booster and physical exercise. Coach Brian, Coach Jon, Coach Karl, Coach Marcus and Steve-o are great and very knowledgeable and helpful.
I came to Precision a couple of years ago looking for creative and positive pathways for my energies. Going in, I was a bit intimidated in not knowing what to expect or how to comport myself in such a setting but Coach Brian and Ollie quickly dispelled those fears and got me in and going from the jump.
* Coach A Truly Exceptional Gym and I've been training with Coach Brian for years, and I can say without hesitation that he runs one of the best gyms I've ever stepped into. Brian is a high-level black belt with deep knowledge across multiple disciplines — ju jitsu, wrestling, striking, and overall fight IQ.
Our son Logan has been training at Precision for about four years now. He started in the kid's classes at ten and quickly fell in love with BJJ. The coaches train the young students in more than just martial arts. They instill self-confidence, respect, sportsmanship, and grit.
New to kickboxing? Start at Precision Boxing & Mixed Martial Arts
Precision Boxing & 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 Precision Boxing & 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.
