This is an awesome place to get your kids off the video games and out of the house. The kids learn awesome skills and techniques. Great workout mentally and physically for the kids. My son has also learned and is learning great self discipline through Light City Martial Arts alongside making friends in his age range.
The instructor was very detailed and paid close attention to his students during class. Students were very respectful to one another and awesome training partners. If I lived in the area, I would have no problem making this my home gym. Definitely hope to stop by and catch another class one day.
Your first muay thai class at Light City Martial Arts
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.
