From the reviews

Been going to Vamos for several years now, absolutely love it there. Had a couple life changes while training and I’ve been able to adjust my schedule thanks to multiple classes across a variety of days and times.

★★★★★ — Robert, May 2025

We signed up our children ages 13, 11, & 8 in June to keep them active and they absolutely love it. The coaching staff is top notch. They engage with all the kids and everyone has a positive experience. They include other activities during practices to change things up. Tug of war, scavenger hunt, etc.

★★★★★ — Gene, Oct 2022

Great gym, really good coaches. They do boxing, BJJ, Kickboxing, wrestling and mma. Friendly environment, no bullies like other gyms I went before. They really breed fighters. So if you wanna learn or fight this is the place to go in LI.

★★★★★ — Xavier, Mar 2023

I cannot recommend Coach Jared enough. I have been training with him for almost 2 years now and I cannot believe the improvements I have made. He is very clear with instructions and tailors all sessions to my preferences. My stamina, strength, confidence and balance have all been made extreme and noticeable upgrades.

New to kickboxing? Start at Vamos MMA & Jiu Jitsu

Vamos MMA & Jiu Jitsu 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 Vamos MMA & Jiu Jitsu

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.
