From the reviews
Coach Dennis and the whole team at Street Jitsu are phenomenal. Whatever you need from personal goals to insight on martial arts, it's hard to find better than the Street Jitsu gym. They have fair pricing and a group of coaches that actually do care about your success.
Coach Dennis did a great job explaining the application of the moves I was learning. Coach Dennis brings a lot of positivity and is very professional.
We truly feel blessed to have found Coach Dennis. He is a comprehensive life mentor as well as outstanding experienced skills coach.
I couldn't be happier to have found this school for my five year old daughter. The coaching staff is phenomenal. My wife and I are extremely impressed with the care and patience exhibited by the instructors when they are training the kids.
New to muay thai? Start at Street Jitsu
Street Jitsu 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 Street Jitsu
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.
