From the reviews
Love this place, it feels like a second home to my family and myself. We really appreciate the all the coaches for being very patient with each one of us. My 12 yr old daughter and I do kickboxing, my husband does Jiu Jitsu and my son does kids Jiu Jitsu and really enjoy learning at their pace.
ATT Gwinnett is the best gym I’ve trained at so far. I have to commend the management staff (Mike, etc) for their professionalism. The trainers are great in their own ways. I’ve never had a negative experience while training with them.
We had the pleasure of taking a training for our family at Gwinnett Training Academy and I can confidently say it was an excellent experience. From start to finish, the staff and instructors were professional, knowledgeable, and helpful.
I am brand new to martial arts so it's important to learn from the ground up. The coaches are definitely extremely knowledgeable and will teach you all the different techniques. I enjoy training with Aaron in Kickboxing as he teaches the basic of kicking and punching as well as it being a good workout.
New to muay thai? Start at Gwinnett Training Academy
Gwinnett Training Academy 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 Gwinnett Training Academy
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.
