From the reviews
Excellent coach and human being. He helped me in so many ways and got me closer to god. An example of good values. Thanks Christopher and family
Victory MMA: A Safe, Friendly, and Values-Driven Gym Victory MMA is a fantastic place to train, especially if safety is your top priority. Chris, the owner, ensures that everyone, particularly kids, can train safely, which is crucial in BJJ and MMA.
Coach Chris is an excellent instructor. He is professional, patient and informative. Very skilled fighter and coach. There is much to learn and he doesn’t waste time with the fluff. The facility is very large, nice and clean. He has a great community of students that are all respectful and kind to each other.
I first checked out this gym in 2017. I’m the type of person who is pretty skeptical about joining a gym or a group of people. I told my wife for a while that I wanted to start training and that I found a gym that was close to us that I wanted to check it out.
New to kickboxing? Start at Victory MMA
Victory MMA 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 Victory MMA
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.
