From the reviews
Growing fast and looking for fighters both professional and amateur. We will be having try outs for all weight classes. If you make the team it will come with many perks and a chance to compete nationwide.
This is the best gym in town, especially if you have kids. They have multiple classes for kids with a great family atmosphere. I especially love that they hold free self defense classes for women. The owners are great and super sweet!
Ron Fields is the best trainer I have ever worked with. He has so much experience in MMA and you can tell how much he loves teaching others to defend themselves. Definitely recommend training with him.
Crossville MMA has so much to offer! From age range of children to adults with many different styles of mixed martial arts. The coaches are great! Check them out!
New to muay thai? Start at Crossville MMA
Crossville MMA 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 Crossville MMA
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.
