From the reviews
As a dedicated member of the grappling world for over 18 years, I've had the privilege of training in various gyms, but none have made me feel as at home as The Misfits Club.
Best gym ever. It’s got everything to offer. Jiu Jitsu, Muay Thai, conditioning, and most of all, a safe and friendly community for everyone. A great place for seasoned practitioners, beginners, women, children, anyone and everyone! Also, SUPER CLEAN. 10/10.
The Misfits Club has been an excellent gym/academy. My daughters had been training in BJJ for a few years, but they needed a place where they could really grow. They have been members for nearly 2 years.
This is one of the best gyms I’ve trained at because of the coaches and my training partners. Aside from the skilled and knowledgeable coaches…the community at Misfits is super welcoming! The gym has new equipment and is kept clean. If you’re unsure on pursuing a class…this is your sign to TRY IT!
New to muay thai? Start at The Misfits Club
The Misfits Club comes up as a beginner-friendly gym, going by their listing and members’ reviews. 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 The Misfits Club
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.
