From the reviews

Unlike most martial arts gyms/dojos, Artistry Martial Arts genuinely cares about its students and teaching. No matter the level of martial arts taken at Artistry, you will improve. I have been training under Will Asia for three years, and I have learned more from him than anyone else.

★★★★★ — Barry, Oct 2022

Started training there it's been almost 2 months and I have already noticed amazing progress. The equipment is top of the line and the trainers super professional as well. Will and JP are great teachers and you can see that they genuinely care about their students. Best MMA gym around the Boston area hands down.

★★★★★ — Anthony, Oct 2022

We love Artistry Martial Arts! My five year old takes classes with JP - he is usually very reluctant to go to "after school" activities but he asks every day if he is going to "karate with JP".

New to muay thai? Start at Artistry Martial Arts

Artistry Martial Arts 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 Artistry 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.

Muay thai is a contact sport. Ease in, listen to your coaches, and if you have any injuries or health concerns, mention them before class and check with a doctor if you're unsure.
