From the reviews
I have absolutely nothing negative to say about this place, in fact this is definitely the best gym I’ve been so far. They are the best community, actually family. I was so welcomed since day one, all the coaches are really caring, professional and want to see everyone getting better.
Dragon gym was by far the best decision I ever made for my daughter. I started her out young and they have truly turned her life for the better and I'm so thankful for Master Kim and Master Jake for all they have done. I would suggest every parent having troubles with there child this would be the place to go.
Love Dragon Gym! This is a very welcoming and supporting environment, I encourage anyone with interest in martial arts to give it a try. I especially appreciate how they structure the curriculum to make it consistent across the locations, and I LOVE that the location I primarily use has a dedicated women's locker…
Dragon Gym was the most memorable and fun kids birthday party we've attended in the past year, so much so that we hosted our son's 6th birthday party there this past weekend. The instructors are amazing with all of the kids.
New to muay thai? Start at Dragon Gym Martial Arts & Fitness
Dragon Gym Martial Arts & Fitness 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 Dragon Gym Martial Arts & Fitness
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.
