From the reviews

This gym is exceptionally inviting! I felt comfortable right away and it made me want to keep coming back! Kickboxing class is so much fun and a great workout!

★★★★★ — Michelle, Aug 2023

Love this place. You really learn and understand the purpose of the move!!!!.... Not just practicing moves and not understanding how to use them. Love it!. My daughter attended for the first time in the pm Jujitsu class. I would join when I finish healing from my surgery.

★★★★★ — Latoya, Feb 2026

The instructors are extremely patient, they correct the kids in a way that was refreshing. My son really enjoys coming and I noticed in our second class he came out of his shell more. High recommend!

★★★★★ — Tiffany, Feb 2026

New to muay thai? Start at Haanpaa Martial Arts, Beloit

Haanpaa Martial Arts, Beloit 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 Haanpaa Martial Arts, Beloit

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.
