★★★★★ — Finn, Nov 2025

The older we get, especially for those of us who sit at desks or drive frequently, movement becomes essential for wellbeing. For me, jiu jitsu at Tritac has been that perfect outlet since 2011. This place is exceptional - from the expert instructors to the supportive community of training partners.

★★★★★ — Andrew, May 2025

This is an outstanding place to train. My experience as a new member here has been much better than at other gyms. Coach Matt and the team here take great care to ensure everyone is meeting their individual goals while providing a training environment and structure that is both appropriately paced and challenging.

★★★★★ — Geoffrey, Nov 2023

My son Mateo absolutely loves attending classes! Since starting, we’ve seen such a positive change in his confidence, discipline, and self-defense skills. Coach Matt and Coach Cole are incredible — they’re patient, motivating, and really know how to connect with the kids.

New to muay thai? Start at TRITAC Training Center

TRITAC Training Center 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 TRITAC Training Center

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.
