From the reviews
Of all the boxes I have been too, this is by far the boxiest. Granted, this is the only box I have been to but it’s so big, black and cavernous I can’t imagine there is a better box.
I have been coming to Factum (specifically for CrossFit) for just over one year. This gym is amazing! The coaches are all excellent and i have learned so much from them. I have made so many friends and find it to be an extremely welcoming environment.
I was visiting from out of state. Factum had really convenient times so I chose them over others in the area. My experience there was awesome. They didn't attack me with requests for my credit card like most gyms do. They were chill and very welcoming.
Factum is great! As a beginner lifter, I have been going to Factum for a couple of months. I couldn’t have picked a better place to continue my journey towards better health and fitness. The supportive and friendly environment allows me to feel comfortable while still maintaining focus on my goals.
New to muay thai? Start at Factum - Functional Fitness Boxing Jiu Jitsu Kickboxing
Factum - Functional Fitness Boxing Jiu Jitsu Kickboxing 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 Factum - Functional Fitness Boxing Jiu Jitsu Kickboxing
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.
