From the reviews
I started going to Sakura years ago. I loved it then and I am so excited to have started it again. The new classes are awesome, I started up with the FIT class to begin training for a Spartan race and I haven't been disappointed.
I had three years of boxing experience when I started training at Sakura Warrior Arts. The instructors are so amazing, I couldn't believe how much I learned just in the first week. The adult classes always have two instructors, which is so helpful when learning something so technical.
I was fortunate enough to train with Mr. Harrison, Kelly, Chris, and many others back in the early-mid 90s. It was one of the best experiences of my life. I still spar and train on my own, but nothing will ever compare to the atmosphere at Sakura.
It is a really good place! The people there are nice, They teach you really well and make sure you learn how to fight. I would totally recommend this place to anyone.
Your first muay thai class at Sakura Warrior 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.
