From the reviews

CMA Plainsboro in is an awesome karate school, the staff and students are like a blended family. My son has been with this school since it opened in Plainsboro in 2011 and he has thrived in this environment. He has achieved 3rd degree black belt and is a well cherished instructor at the school.

Love this Martial Arts school, truely professional. My two kids, Harshika and Virat, are students of this school for past 2+ years and they really enjoy attending the classes.

★★★★★ — Megharaj, Jul 2021

My son joined Championship Martial Arts Plainsboro at the age of 4 and he's now testing for his Black belt. Martial arts is not just about fighting and dealing with weapons. It is also about discipline, focus and stamina. And CMA at plainsboro does exactly that. Master Arjae is the best.

★★★★☆ — Deepthi, Jul 2021

My kids Harshika and Virat have been part of this school since 2019, it is honestly such a great experience. My kids absolutely loved their Masters and I couldn't be more grateful. I see increase in their focus levels and more disciplined in last two years.

New to muay thai? Start at Championship Martial Arts Plainsboro

Championship Martial Arts Plainsboro 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 Championship Martial Arts Plainsboro

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.
