From the reviews
Martial Masters is an outstanding gym and the coaches really know their stuff. I recently moved out of the country, after training for almost two years with them, and boy, do I miss this gym. Not only did I get an excellent workout every time, but the training in boxing and kickboxing is top notch.
Cool place. It's the first fighting gym that I trained at, and I had no problem getting integrated. If you're new, they work you out alone first until you feel comfortable being integrated into the main class.
I trained boxing at their facility through the summer and the coaches were incredibly helpful and friendly, and the workouts were tough! I joined them with no previous boxing experience and saw myself significantly improve through the summer.
I’ve been training here for a little over a year and this place is like my second home and the people there have become family. Whether you’re looking to compete, test your limits, or just get a great work out in, this is the place to go.
New to muay thai? Start at 4 Elements MMA
4 Elements 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 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 4 Elements MMA
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.
