★★★★★ — Marie, Feb 2023

This place is awesome! Family oriented. Great instruction! Work at your pace environment while still pushing you to achieve more. I'm currently training in the evening kickboxing as well as in the cardio kickboxing. My son is also training here although in jujitsu.

★★★★★ — Christina, Feb 2019

This is coming from someone who had absolutely no interest in kickboxing or jiu jitsu. If you’re thinking about it, go try it out! I absolutely love it. You don’t need experience to go. They meet you where you are and build from there.

★★★★★ — Vanessa, Jan 2019

My grandson does mma here ive only went one time but he seems to like it!! It’s kinda a small place with mats on the floor and they have several assistant coaches that was very helpful since the coach was kinda really late showing up but I guess they are nice people tho cause they gave my grandson a month free cause…

Your first muay thai class at Elite Team Porterville

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.
