From the reviews
We LOVE Premier Martial Arts!! The experience our 8 yr old son has had these past 7 months has been life changing. The instructors genuinely care about the kids and focus on teaching important skills physically and mentally! Thanks for creating a space of positivity and good energy!!
This is a great school. We have been very impressed with the instructors. They are very focused on making sure the Karate experience is positive and motivating for the kids. My 5 year old loves coming 2 times a week and never wants to miss. The school focus on a variety of martial arts/styles.
I am very impressed with Premier Martial Arts Pleasant Grove! My 11 year old son has been going for 7 months and loves it! Twice a week is perfect! I love that they teach good principles and morals alongside self defense. They are teaching my son to be a good human being while also having fun and working hard.
My 2 kids love going to martial arts here and they've been going since it first opened! Instructor David and instructor Jackson are awaome to work with. They've helped My daughter come along ways with confidence and doing what she needs to do even in front of big crowds.
New to kickboxing? Start at Premier Martial Arts
Premier 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 Premier 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.
