From the reviews
We have been at this dojo for 2 years now after transferring in from another one. We have had a positive experience from day one. The teachers are top quality and have so much knowledge and experience. We are very blessed with the teachers!
I would like to the Thank You the Professors’s Team ! My child LOVE the Classes , he has been able to develop his body and mind so well to be a better Listener !!!!! I very happy and I really appreciate the opportunity !!!! Leidy ( Keidier’s mom )
Our son loves being apart of PMA! The instructors are very intentional, and a good balance of kind, fun, and firm to help the students enjoy their experience, and also to encourage sportsmanship and self discipline to grow in their skill.
We love bringing our son to PMA, and we love the instructors. Our son is much, much stronger now after a year in PMA’s Black Belt class. We especially love Mrs. Z, as she is patient with the kids, while being firm when she needs to be. Would definitely recommend!
New to kickboxing? Start at Premier Martial Arts Kentwood
Premier Martial Arts Kentwood 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 Premier Martial Arts Kentwood
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.
