From the reviews
This place is awesome! Had a great workout here last night and they kicked my butt. I have been wanting to add a lot more cardio to my workouts and I think this is the perfect spot to do it. Plus it's fun and you learn self defense skills at the same time! I would recommend anyone check out Hit House.
Highly recommend anyone who wants to try out kickboxing, want to be a part of a supportive community, release some strong emotions, be treated with care and respect, improve mental and physical health, establish a new routine, train your memory, and/ or meet some awesome people.
I’ve been to gyms all over the city and consider myself an eclectic athlete, Hit House opened up a whole new world for me. The workout is unique, they have patented bags and experienced but kind instructors to make the art of 8 limbs accessible to anyone.
This is seriously one of the best kickboxing spots I’ve tried in NYC! Everyone there is super friendly, and the studio itself is spotless, open, and really well-designed.
New to muay thai? Start at Hit House
Hit House 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 Hit House
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.
