From the reviews
Awesome gym! I’ve been coming here for some time now, and it’s been an incredible experience every time. The classes are never boring; they’re intense, engaging, and always push you to do your best. The coaches are extremely knowledgeable and highly involved, making sure everyone gets the most out of each session.
Sunshine's gym in top notch! I've ben to several muay thai gyms and I can say this one truly feels like home. They have incredible instructors. No matter what level you are at the coaching is attentive and innovative. The classes are fun and challenging!
I tried the gym during a drop-in session to check it out before signing up and man this gym is impressive! Not only was the owner completely involved in the classes but she had a great crew helping her out, and the sessions are intense!
Fun, professional, and knowledgeable, you can’t go wrong with taking a boxing class or Muay Thai. The fight fit class ran by Joel are perfect balance of challenging and entertaining. you’ll never get bored with the different work outs.
New to kickboxing? Start at Sunshine's Boxing, Muay Thai, and Fitness
Sunshine's Boxing, Muay Thai, and Fitness 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 Sunshine's Boxing, Muay Thai, 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.
