From the reviews

We've dropped into both the youth and MS practices. Practices were well worth the fee, our boy got great workouts in. Coaches broke down and explained every move really well, providing alternate finishes to accomodate size and wrestling style differences.

★★★★★ — Tiffany, Sep 2024

The coaches at Black Swan are top tier! Super patient with my 7 and 9 year olds. They work the kids hard, but are always kind and understanding, even when the kids are having an off day.

★★★★★ — Kay, Sep 2024

Amazing coaches, putting in the work to get to know and work with your children. If something isn't understood they find a way to make it make sense. They don't just instruct they get out there and work with them. Some times coming out just as sweaty as the wrestlers.

★★★★★ — Martika, Sep 2024

Even though we dont live in Monroe, my high schooler has requested driving there throughout the week because of these awesome coaches and the thorough practices he gets here! The coaches really take their time with each wrestler and that makes a huge difference!

New to muay thai? Start at Black Swan Wrestling Club

Black Swan Wrestling Club 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 Black Swan Wrestling Club

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. 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.
