From the reviews
This gym is perfect for anyone looking to begin or continue training BJJ, Muay Thai, Kickboxing, Wrestling, or a mix of them all. They have classes all day Mon-Fri and afternoon classes on the weekends, but you can use their facility on your own time as well.
Had an amazing first time dropping in for a class with Albert. He explains techniques really clearly and makes everyone feel comfortable on the mats, whether you’re a beginner or have some experience. The gym is super clean, well-organized, and was really welcoming and positive.
Long Island MMA and Fitness Center is a great gym. Of course they offer MMA training and do it well. Their trainers know what they are doing and do it with a positive attitude.
I’ve been training at LIMMA for around 5-6 years and I couldn’t be happier with my experience. The gym has a great morale, very welcoming, friendly, and full of people who are genuinely passionate about the sport.
New to muay thai? Start at Long Island MMA and Fitness Center
Long Island MMA and Fitness Center 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 Long Island MMA and Fitness Center
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.
