From the reviews

I love this place, I have been training here for the last 6 years. Coach Cassie and Professor Jose are amazing people, always willing to help you out if you are willing to put your part, with that said I managed to loose 40 pnds within 6 months.

★★★★★ — Emmanuel, Jan 2023

If you are considering Jiu Jitsu this is the place! I love the fact it has a 6am class. I work a weird schedule so I can get my training in early in the morning. Professor Jose Andrade has a wealth of knowledge in both bjj and judo. The classes are very affordable compared to other places.

★★★★★ — Jesse, Aug 2017

I've been going to this gym for almost 2 months and the trainers are great... great atmosphere, every work out is intense but I see the results. Cassie and Jose are great owners and trainers. Very welcoming... highly recommended for families.

Your first muay thai class at Carlson Gracie Paramount - Mixed 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.
