I came hear for two trial workouts this week. The environment hear is great. The instructors are friendly, know their stuff and look the part. You won't be being trained by some out of shape instructor. These guys are active and are very engaged with all the students.

★★★★★ — Ephraim, Sep 2018

No disrespect to the other places in town. This is the place! Coach Lee is like no other. Cory, Bruce and Doug are beyond amazing. They don't just simply prepare you for a matchup....they prepare you for life!

Your first muay thai class at United Martial Arts 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.
