From the reviews
Been at this gym for about 4 years, the coaches/teachers are very knowledgeable and not only helped me learn to defend myself but also gave me the confidence to get in the ring three times!
Hero MMA Academy is awesome! I've been training here for a while now, and I can't get enough of it. The coaches are top-notch—they really know their stuff and make learning MMA super fun. Plus, they're always there to help you improve and reach your goals. The classes are a real workout.
all the coaches are great and take their time to train you and make sure your doing everything right. they are heavy on safety while still being able to train.

Your first muay thai class at Hero MMA 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.
