From the reviews
Stadium MMA has been one of the best growing experiences for my son. Over a year ago I approached Coach Kelly as he was leaving the beach from a training session, and explained how hard it was to find a gym with stand up and bjj without drama.
Man there are so many amazing things I can say about Stadium MMA. Coach Kelly is so amazing!! I love the atmosphere, the rhythm of the class, and the intricate attention to detail coach Kelly gives to each and every one of his students.
We found stadium MMA during the peak of the summer when my child needed an outlet besides his basic summer fun activities. The location is a hidden gem and not overly crowded and you get to know everyone. My son came in and tried a free class and was hooked (pun intended).
I discovered this hidden gem several months ago and I absolutely love it! Initially, I was intimidated at the thought of trying Muay Thai, but Coach Kelly (as well as the other members) are awesome! The environment is very supportive and fosters growth.
New to muay thai? Start at Stadium MMA
Stadium MMA 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 Stadium MMA
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.
