From the reviews
Amazing start. We took our boy for his first karate class and My wife and I loved how patient and firm and disciplinary Coach Jess was, as we were leaving our son said loooved his class and his coach. I asked him if he wanted to keep doing it?? He yelled YEEAAAAHHH!
Man where do I start... My daughter and I have been members for about 3 years. She started training in the kids program first. The dedication, love for JJ, and patience these coaches show on the daily basis have helped my once shy, insecure growing child. Into a blossoming young leader.
Coach Manolo is an outstanding coach and all-round human being. He’s been so great to my sons and has shown them so much about MMA and Kickboxing. I was grateful to see him corner my son at MDL. My kids love him, wife and I too! You can tell he really cares about his peeps.
The Women’s Boxing Class truly helped me lose weight—which was not my main goal. One of the Coaches taught us that boxing is 80% Conditioning. As a busy single mum, I couldn’t add something outside of my kids’ events. They were already into kickboxing, wrestling and jiu jitsu.
New to muay thai? Start at 10th Planet San Diego Jiu Jitsu and Training Center
10th Planet San Diego Jiu Jitsu and Training Center 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 10th Planet San Diego Jiu Jitsu and Training Center
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.
