From the reviews
From the very first practice George and the rest of the coaches made me feel welcome! They pay attention to the detail and structure out each class so that regardless of age or experience each person is being challenged.
This place is great! There is a reason why the reviews are so high here. I completed my 9th class today and I definitely love this. I bought gear to help get my head in the right place each time I go in. It helps. I am still new but I am getting better every time I train. My confidence is through the roof. Thanks!
This will be my fourth month training at this place. I highly recommend this gym! I’ve lost 10 lbs in three weeks just from training at this place three times a week. Love the way how the instructors focuses on the fundamentals and work with you one step at a time.
Went yesterday for a free trial run! Best decision I’ve ever made. Really loved the class, George was very helpful with helping me sign up for a membership and the instructors are very helpful and willing to take the time to show you every step.
New to muay thai? Start at George's MMA & Boxing Gym
George's MMA & Boxing Gym comes up as a beginner-friendly gym, going by their listing and members’ reviews. 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 George's MMA & Boxing Gym
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.
