I have been training with Kim for about a year now and have nothing but great things to say. Both Kim and Josh are incredible instructors who dedicate an incredible amount of time and care to their students.
OMG ‼️‼️‼️ TRULY THE BEST BOXING GYM 🗣️🗣️🗣️. THE COACHES ALL KNOW WHAT THEYRE DOING 🥊🥊. IF YOU NEED A GYM 🏋️♂️🏋️♂️ THAT WILL TURN YOU INTO A STRIKING DEMON 👹👹👹 THIS IS IT ‼️‼️‼️. RAH RAH 🔊🔊🔊 TQD 🗣️🗣️🗣️. IF YOU TRAINED 🚉🚄 HERE FOR A FEW WEEKS 📆🗓️. YOU COULD PROBABLY BEAT ALEX PERRAIA 🦅🦅. CHAMAAAAA 👯♂️👯♂️👯♂️
Great place to train and improve. Came in with basic skills for boxing and kickboxing, but Kim and Josh do an amazing job at pinpointing what you need to work on and provide concentrated instruction on how to level up as a fighter. Great community to meet people too and be part of events.
Excellent coaches who have a lot of knowledge about boxing and kickboxing. The gym is a very welcoming place to learn how to be an effective striker. Great place for someone who is looking to learn proper technique and get a great workout.
New to kickboxing? Start at The Queen's Dojo
The Queen's Dojo 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 The Queen's Dojo
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. 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.
