From the reviews
My whole family trains here, and we LOVE IT! We have met some great people, and it's like a Second family for us.. Comfortable atmosphere, and my kids are learning so much. I do the morning Bootcamp classes, and never felt better. I highly recommend this Academy.
Everyday I come to Watts, is an entirely new learning experience. More than anything it keeps me in shape, not just learning to submit Someone or defend myself. From the moment I walked into watts I knew this was the place for me. They really did an amazing job in making me feel at home.
I have been going to paragon for a few weeks now, its quite fun if you want to learn how to fight and they teach you how to actually fight using muay thai and brazillian jiu jitsu. The instructors are good and the enviroment promotes growth within the martial arts and you get better each time you go.
This is a really great BJJ studio. Me and my family have been going here for a while now (my dad and sister are blue belts, and I am a white), and hope to keep coming.
New to muay thai? Start at Paragon Simi Valley
Paragon Simi Valley 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 Paragon Simi Valley
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.
