What members say
From the reviews
Brian, the owner and head instructor has unquestionable integrity. He is an honorable competitor and businessman. If you don’t believe him, ask anyone in the MMA community about Brian or his student’s character. The best part about training at Precision MMA is the atmosphere.
Everyone at Precision MMA is really helpful from the staff to the coaches. I get a great workout and feel like I learn something new every time I'm on the mat. The people at Precision have become some of my best friends, I can't say enough good things about this gym.
Precision MMA is the best. Why? Wrestling Coach that competed in the Atlanta Olympic Games, two other NCAA DIV 1 wrestling coaches, Judo coach Black Belt, Golden Gloves Boxing Coach, Muay Thai Champion that trains at AMA with several UFC fighters, including the Miller brothers, and BJJ black belt Brian Mclaughlin.
New to muay thai? Start at Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (BJJ) Classes in Poughkeepsie / Hudson Valley
Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (BJJ) Classes in Poughkeepsie / Hudson Valley 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 Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (BJJ) Classes in Poughkeepsie / Hudson Valley
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.
