From the reviews
Academy of Martial Arts is the place to go! Adult or child, Coach Coleman offer the best knowledge in multiple martial arts for any and all ages and skill levels. I was very intimidated when I first started going to AMA, but the instructors and students made me feel like I belonged there.
I had a fantastic experience at AMA! The gym is impeccably clean and has a genuinely welcoming, female-friendly atmosphere. Training here is comfortable, especially with the incredible support from both instructors and fellow students.
Greatest martial arts gym in the state! Coach Coleman is hands down the best in the biz. As far as I know he is also the only instructor in oklahoma with both certified muay thai instructions with TBA, as well as a black belt under RT assoc.
This place rocks, my daughter loves the kids class, she looks forward to going everytime, the coaches are all great. I would recommend this place to anyone at any age.
New to muay thai? Start at Academy of Martial Arts
Academy of Martial Arts comes up as a beginner-friendly gym, going by their listing and members’ reviews. 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 Academy of Martial Arts
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.
