From the reviews

Sensei Angie has been a godsend for my little girl. I was looking for an activity for my daughter that would instill some respect, discipline and physical activity. This was the perfect solution. Sensei is patient, kind and so flexible. My daughter is absolutely thriving under Angie’s guidance.

★★★★★ — Amanda, Feb 2022

Sensei is an excellent teacher. My grandson has found something he really likes. His attention and self discipline has improved greatly. He looks forward to this training.

★★★★★ — Betty, Jun 2024

We are so grateful for Sensei Angie and New Life Martial Arts. When our son started karate, he was struggling with some challenging behaviors at home and at school. In just four months, we’ve seen incredible growth in his self-control, listening skills, and overall respect, both in and out of class.

★★★★★ — Ryan, Dec 2025

My grandson absolutely loves Angie and he is a purple bell at age 4! He has absolute respect for her and that shows how well she has treated him! She always make sure that she gives attention to all of the kids and makes them feel very important no matter how many are in the class.

New to muay thai? Start at New Life Martial Arts

New Life Martial Arts 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 New Life 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.

Muay thai is a contact sport. Ease in, listen to your coaches, and if you have any injuries or health concerns, mention them before class and check with a doctor if you're unsure.
