From the reviews

The professionalism of the instructor and the individual that runs this establishment is unbelievably sound. The instructor is not only patient and demonstrated awesome techniques to the art of jiu-jitsu.

★★★★★ — Kevin, Mar 2021

We really like this place. My daughter has been taking classes here for several years. The instructors are attentive and focused, and the classes are small enough that each kid gets individual attention.

★★★★★ — Barbara, Aug 2016

Norman, Julia, Rilma and all the people I had the honor to roll with (doc, Josh... Sincere apologies I could not remember all of you by names, my brain should have miss some oxygen during our rolling 🤕), I would like to thank you from the bottom of my heart for your welcoming school, awesome fighting spirit and deep…

★★★★★ — A, Nov 2018

Great experience at this gym, the instructor there is very knowledgeable and a very good teacher, the atmosphere is very welcoming and I very much enjoyed getting to train there, I was brand new to Jiu-Jitsu and they made me feel right at home. Would highly recommend this gym.

Your first kickboxing class at Underground Martial Arts & Fitness LLC

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.
