From the reviews
I have been attending 1 United for some time now along with both of my children. As a life long martial arts I was excited to find a place that was good for me and my children. I have also taken personal one on one training sessions that have helped me stay in shape when I could not attend the full classes.
The best coaches/sensei/friends your kids will have. Classes are fun, educational, competitive and keeps kids engaged from start to finish.

Excellent martial arts instruction in a family-centered environment. Your child is not just a number. Instructors make it a point to learn your child’s name on their first day and make parents feel welcomed—something that is generally lacking when it comes to children’s extracurricular activities.
New to muay thai? Start at 1 United MMA House
1 United MMA House 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 program is for. A few things worth knowing before your first week. First, you don't need to be fit to start — you get in shape by training, not before it, and coaches scale the conditioning to you. Second, you won't be thrown into sparring — reputable gyms build fundamentals (stance, footwork, and the basic strikes of the "art of eight limbs") for weeks before any contact, and sparring stays optional. Third, all 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 muay thai class at 1 United MMA House
Nervous about walking into a muay thai 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 on pads and bags — not fighting. Rest whenever you need to; no one will bat an eye. What to wear: shorts or athletic wear and a t-shirt; you'll train barefoot on the mats. What to bring: water and hand wraps if you have them — many gyms lend gloves for a first class, so it's worth asking when you call. As you keep training you'll add your own gloves, wraps, a mouthguard, and shin guards. Sparring is optional and comes later, once your fundamentals 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.
