I've been training kickboxing & Muay Thai here for almost 2 years. Under coach Trey I'm currently 2-0 in IKF PMT. The knowledge and coaching is very next level & technical. Great atmosphere. The owners are really great people as well. From fitness boot camp classes, to striking & no gi grappling this place has it all.

★★★★★ — Daniel, Oct 2025

I honestly live that gym. Great place to be with good people. Always positive vibes around that place. Coaches are awesome from boxing to mauy thai to boot camp. Kids enjoys their classes. I suggest that more people come check it out. You'll enjoy it, trusts me.

★★★★★ — Erick, Feb 2017

Top notch facility, with programs for the entire family. Full sized boxing ring, cage, and enormous mat area. One of the best and largest facilities in Houston.

Your first kickboxing class at RISE MMA and Fitness

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.
