From the reviews

This is the best martial arts/kick boxing place in NYC. Not only because of there techniques but also the staff. Manny and Sabrina are very professional and serious about your goals, even with classes you can achieve what you want out and will always give you a new routine! You will never be bored!

★★★★★ — Marinell, Mar 2021

There are so many reasons why joining The Training Zone was one of the best decisions I've made in a long time! Before becoming a member, I had been stuck in a fitness rut. I'd belonged to an indoor cycling studio for many years, but it had becoming tedious and boring.

★★★★★ — Lydie, May 2020

I would highly recommend Training Zone to anyone looking for a great workout and a supportive environment! I have been going to TZ for the past 5 years, 3 times a week taking cardio kickboxing and muy Thai. The workouts are the perfect combination of technical martial arts training and high intensity cardio.

★★★★★ — Brittany, Nov 2025

This place is absolutely amazing! Coach Manny is an excellent teacher, his lessons are filled with fun, jokes, laughter but also with well made rigorous training that will push you to your limits and make you a much healthier/ better person both physically and mentally!

New to kickboxing? Start at Training Zone NYC - Gramercy Park

Training Zone NYC - Gramercy Park 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 Training Zone NYC - Gramercy Park

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.
