I have driven passed this Gym so many times. Finally signed up my daughter and was really impressed at the whole Bombersquad team. From the equipment to the staff. Everyone here treats you with respect and is really open to help you out. My daughter loves her class and it’s only her 2nd week.

Firstly, each coach and member I have met has greeted me like family.

I’ve been bringing my son to Bomber Squad Academy for about a month now, and the experience has been nothing short of amazing. From day one, the coaches and community welcomed him with open arms. It truly feels like a second family—coaches, parents, and even the participants all look out for one another.

★★★★★ — Darce, Oct 2025

Vieann is one of the strength and conditioning coaches at this gym. She teaches at 8am Monday Tuesday Thursday and Friday. All the classes are one hour and they really get your heart rate up! I really enjoy taking the 8am class with her because it really sets up my day in the best possible way!

New to muay thai? Start at Bomber Squad Academy | San Diego's Best Boxing, Muay Thai, and Strength & Conditioning

Bomber Squad Academy | San Diego's Best Boxing, Muay Thai, and Strength & Conditioning 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 Bomber Squad Academy | San Diego's Best Boxing, Muay Thai, and Strength & Conditioning

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.
