★★★★★ — Jean, Jan 2025

Shraim’s Boxing academy is top notch! My son has been coming here for about 6 months now and he loves his weekly workout with Coach Mark. All of the coach’s are phenomenal and work very well with kids as well as folks of all ages! They’re teaching my son some nice skills along with discipline.

★★★★★ — Trueline, Mar 2024

This gym has an incredible sense of community and a truly authentic boxing experience. The coach breaks everything down in a way that’s easy to understand and applies to real life — you don’t just learn techniques, you learn how to think like a fighter.

★★★★★ — Krishna, Oct 2025

My 8 year old has been training with coach Dylan for a little over a year now. Not only has his confidence drastically improve, but his boxing skills and athleticism as well. He loves and looks forward to training with his coach weekly. Coach Dylan is the perfect fit for what my son needed. He is awesome.

New to kickboxing? Start at Shraims Academy

Shraims Academy comes up as a beginner-friendly gym, going by their listing and members’ reviews. 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 Shraims Academy

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.
