From the reviews

My husband and I both started boxing. We're really out of shape, but they are really accommodating in making sure that we are going at our own pace. It's a really nice community and we feel super welcome. We look forward to every class.

Amazing MMA gym. As a newcomer into the space they have been very friendly and helpful. All the BJJ coaches are great! Edit: 2.5 years later it's still great I go every week. Edit: 4 years later, still love my gym!! Go Drive!!

Scott’s a great trainer. I’d recommend this place to anyone. Very professional and non judgmental.

Your first muay thai class at Drive Mixed 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.

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.
