From the reviews
I could not love this gym more! I started in 2021 and absolutely love the kickboxing and jiu jitsu classes. The coaches are very knowledgeable and everyone is so friendly. It's like my second home.
I can't say enough good things about Nova...joining this gym has really changed my life for the better. I love the kickboxing classes and what they've done for my health and fitness. Christian is a fantastic coach and is always there to help with whatever I need.
I absolutely LOVE taking MMA/Kickboxing at NOVA! I’ve been here for over a year and I’m so glad I’ve stayed and continued coming. The coaches are extremely helpful and they take their time when you first start out and help build your confidence. They even have Jujitsu for Adults and Kids!!
I love going to Nova Gyms and Martial Arts! The classes are so effective, fun and your instructors are the best. I especially, want to recognize and thank Christian, Jeff and Robert, they give excellent tips and suggestions to get the most from our class experience.
New to muay thai? Start at Nova Gyms Martial Arts & Fitness - Oak Creek
Nova Gyms Martial Arts & Fitness - Oak Creek 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 Nova Gyms Martial Arts & Fitness - Oak Creek
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.
