I have been training at Unit 2 Fitness for nearly 6 years now, and I can't recommend this place enough. Small business level attention-to-detail and customer service, with expert level instruction.
I've waited almost a year to write this review because I wanted it to be based on real world experiences. I'm a BJJ Blackbelt under Rafael "Gordinho" Lima with 20+ years of training.
Unit 2 Fitness is a fantastic place to elevate your fitness journey. The atmosphere is welcoming and motivating, making it easy to feel at home while pushing your limits. Coaches Jeff and Ryan are exceptional—they bring a wealth of knowledge, energy, and personalized attention to every session.
New to kickboxing? Start at Unit 2 Fitness
Unit 2 Fitness 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 Unit 2 Fitness
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.
