From the reviews

We came from Dubai for vacation and needed a place to train that would keep our family in shape while we were away from our gym that we love back home! MAN!!! This is the place!!! David Kelly was so helpful, and kind! They really know their stuff at The Fight Lab!!

★★★★★ — Rennie, Jul 2021

It's a great place to train with your family and make new friends. All are welcome, everyone is super nice, especially the big guys. A few places I've been to I felt like I was just getting beat up or tapped out, here at The Fight LAB TX it's completely different.

★★★★★ — Marc, Jun 2024

This place has been great to train at! It’s a clean and welcoming environment. I’ve been taking private lessons here with coach David for a few months, working with him 1 on 1 has been a game changer. Can’t recommend this place enough!

★★★★★ — Sarem, May 2025

The Fight Lab is the real deal. Great coaches and great community. Coming into this gym very green, I felt like I was welcomed with open arms. Classes are also a lot of fun. The coaches do a great job of balancing drills for technique and incorporating sparring. This place is a 10 out of 10 for sure.

New to kickboxing? Start at The Fight Lab TX

The Fight Lab TX 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 The Fight Lab TX

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.
