From the reviews
I might have gave this place 5 STARZ but it is really a 7.5 star establishment. I travel around the country quite a bit for work and if this isn’t THE best I don’t know what is. Seriously I was working out in Utah last year and dropped in and was glad I did.
There is definitely a sense of community. The gym is so clean, the coaches are fun and attentive. I have been going for about a year now. I am almost forty and have never done kick boxing or jujitsu.
I have trained at, at least, every notable gym within 2 hours of salt lake. I still train fairly consistently at a handful of them. But every opportunity I have making to the drive out to TMAA is worth the drive. The Jiu-jitsu and wrestling is in my opinion the best in the state.
This place is an absolute life changer for young and old alike! MMA, Muay Thai Kickboxing, Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, too notch coaches that create an amazing atmosphere and family feel. Award winning kids program, Adopt a Cop program, women’s only ckasses, fight camp, sauna, ice bath, private lessons, and so much more!
New to muay thai? Start at Tooele Martial Arts Academy
Tooele Martial Arts Academy 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 Tooele Martial Arts Academy
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.
