From the reviews
I would highly recommend this gym to everyone. This is not your typical boxing gym it stands a head and shoulders above the rest because of the awesome very experienced trainers and many other reasons as listed below.
I can’t say enough great things about the gym. Let me start by saying the coaches/trainers are phenomenal! If you’re looking for a pristine gym? You have found the right spot. It’s always clean and equipment ready to use. The coaches/trainers ooze with positive vibes.
We have been taking our 6 year old daughter here for the past few months and Spartan Boxing has done an incredible job teaching her the skills of boxing while also keeping it fun. She loves coming here and has developed a serious passion for boxing. The coaches are very experienced, knowledgeable, and approachable.
I’ve been training at Spartan Boxing & Fitness for quite some time now, and I can’t speak highly enough about this place. The instructors are incredibly knowledgeable and dedicated, ensuring that every session is both challenging and rewarding.
New to kickboxing? Start at Spartan Mixed Martial Arts
Spartan Mixed 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 Spartan Mixed 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.
