From the reviews
Victory MMA is an amazing place to train. The senseis truly care about every student and it shows in everything they do. They take their time to explain techniques clearly, give individual attention, and make sure everyone feels supported and confident as they learn.
Sensei Denny and crew have been phenomenal. From the first day we joined they knew his name, and always knew exactly when they needed a kind reminder to focus or a push to do his best. My son loves going every week and gets so much out of the community and mat chat lessons.
I’ve been training at this location for several months and have grown to be impressed by the level of respect, excellence, and competence that every coach offers every session. Training in this gym has helped me expand my skill set significantly.
Great MMA gym! Coaches are knowledgeable and supportive, classes are challenging and fun, and the environment is welcoming. Highly recommend for anyone looking to improve skills and get in shape!
New to kickboxing? Start at Victory MMA
Victory MMA 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 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.
