From the reviews
My son always has a great time at Warrior 3! Coach Russell keeps the kids going. At the same time they’re learning discipline and Martial Arts! My son not only is learning Karate but can also learn Jujitsu and MMA. Glad to have a Dojo in the area that can teach different life skills.
Warrior3 in Rockville has quickly become one of those rare places that feels like both a serious training facility and a genuine community hub. Every visit, you can feel the energy in the room—focused but friendly, disciplined but never intimidating.
My two kids have been going to Warrior3 for about a year now for Jiu-Jitsu and martial arts, and they’re absolutely loving it! The coaches are super friendly and really know how to keep the kids engaged. I’ve noticed they’re getting stronger, more confident, and better at focusing—even outside of class.
This is such a great place with a fun, family-friendly vibe! Russell & Allison's family has a long history in martial arts and they really have created something new and fresh.
New to kickboxing? Start at WARRIOR3 - Karate, Kickboxing, & Jiu-Jitsu
WARRIOR3 - Karate, Kickboxing, & 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 WARRIOR3 - Karate, Kickboxing, & 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.
