From the reviews
We’ve been so happy with our experience with PMA since day one. My daughter has become so much stronger, more disciplined, and so very confident. Her self esteem has really gotten so much better. The instructors are great with communicating with the kids and not intimidating them.
Both of my sons attend PMA - one is 6 and one is 15. They have both gained so much focus, stamina and self esteem. The instructors are top notch, excellent with the kids and always motivating. Highly recommend this school!
Great environment!! My kids love the class, the teachers, they are very friendly, and they have learned a lot! Recommended 100%!!
My son Tyler has been going to PMA for 4 or so months. We joined bc he dropped out of playing sports bc he wasnt having fun as the other kids were developmentally above him and he felt it. The classes 2x a week are great, my son has improved on every level and has a lot more confidence.
New to kickboxing? Start at Premier Martial Arts Park Ridge
Premier Martial Arts Park Ridge 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 Park Ridge
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.
