From the reviews

Amazing gym with a great atmosphere. I know David personally — we’ve trained together, and I’ve seen his journey through both amateur and professional fights in combat sambo, Muay Thai, and MMA.

★★★★★ — Salim, May 2025

I've been training with Coach David for the last three years, first at AKA and now at his beautiful new gym. Coach David is hardworking, principled, and brings over 20 years of experience at the highest levels of MMA.

★★★★★ — Angela, Jun 2025

I was looking for a Muay Thai and MMA gym in Redwood City and I’m so glad I found Spartan Combat Sports. Unlike other spots that focus more on the cardio aspect, Coach David is a Combat Sambo World Champion who focuses on real technique and proper form.

★★★★★ — Ismail, Feb 2026

I've joined a couple of MMA classes here. This is a REAL MMA gym. It's not a typical striking + grappling gym. It's a gym with MMA gloves on teaching how to combine everything together. I really like coach David Dzasokhov.

New to muay thai? Start at Spartan Combat Sports

Spartan Combat Sports 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 Spartan Combat Sports

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.
