The classes they run
“After a bit of an exercise hiatus, we were looking to get back in shape and liked the idea of the kickboxing fitness classes.”
“One of the best things about their after-school program is how active the kids are—no sitting around in a cafeteria all afternoon.”
“The instructors provide a comfortable, yet challenging learning environment, and are very encouraging and approachable for beginners and those less confident in their abilities.”

From the reviews
Amazing gym, this gym has a great and safe community. The instructors are also super nice and encourage you to learn. Learning jujitsu here has been a great experience that I plan to continue for a long time.
This is more than just a gym, it’s a family. You will definitely get pushed in any work out you do there. Great environment with friendly and encouraging instructors. My daughter has been doing Taekwondo since she was 4 years old. She loves it and has learned respect and discipline along with martial arts.
One of the biggest challenges for me when it comes to working out is not getting bored with the program. This place keeps it exciting and changes up the workouts all the time so it’s always fun and different, all while giving you one heck of a workout. Would most definitely recommend Tech MMA & Fitness Academy.
Tech MMA & Fitness has some of the most professional staff and educated instructors around. The facilities offer a wide variety of equipment within a safe and clean environment. If you are simply looking to get in shape, learn a particular skill, or become a professional fighter, then this is the place to go.
New to kickboxing? Start at Tech MMA & Fitness Academy
Tech MMA & Fitness Academy 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 Tech MMA & Fitness 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.
