From the reviews
My husband takes Muay Thai and Jiu-Jitsu classes with Jerry at Desert Dojo, and it’s been a wonderful experience for him! For over a year, the Desert Dojo has been like a second home for him. The classes get his heartbeat up and going.
There are many martial arts studios across the valley, we have been looking for the perfect place to call home. I signed up my daughters for 2 weeks of unlimited classes. My wife set up the first class and text me mid-way through, "This is the one.
I was originally searching for jujitsu classes for my 11yr. old son. The Desert Dojo offers that, but also gave me a better understanding of what would be best for him and gave us a trial run. After checking other Dojos/MMA classes in our area we decided on this one. I've noticed great changes.
Great Dolo to learn Muay Thai, you will learn discipline, balance, endurance, self defense while excersicing in a respectfull and fellowship enviroment.
New to muay thai? Start at KI-SENSHI Martial Arts Chandler
KI-SENSHI Martial Arts Chandler 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 KI-SENSHI Martial Arts Chandler
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.
