From the reviews
Spending spring break down in Bonita and wanted to find a place to train and boy did I get lucky. Black Tie BJJ was wonderful. The team where great to work with and Corey Brown was a wonderful coach. Everyone was welcoming and knowledgeable.
I'll start by saying that although I only have a few years of BJJ under my belt, I have been in some form of martial arts training for nearly 30 years, both in the civilian and military spaces.
Hands-down, the best gym in Southwest Florida. The instructors have grown up in the sport and have lots of knowledge to pass down from beginners to high-level competitors. The kids program is Top Notch the attention to detail and calm presence they have with the kids is refreshing.
My family and I visited Black Tie while on vacation this week and had a great experience! We checked out both the kids classes and the adult classes. The coaching was top notch. The people and environment were extremely friendly. The cleanliness standard stood out to me as way above the norm.
New to muay thai? Start at Black Tie Brazilian Jiu Jitsu & Muay Thai Bonita Springs
Black Tie Brazilian Jiu Jitsu & Muay Thai Bonita Springs 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 Tie Brazilian Jiu Jitsu & Muay Thai Bonita Springs
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.
