From the reviews
I’ve been taking classes at WCMA for almost 10 years now! I can’t say enough about the staff there and how they’ve become a second family to me. The classes are also run by highly skilled black belts. This is best place to go to as a woman in Jiu Jitsu too.
Great place to train. You get two locations with tons of mat space, and strong training partners. It’s like your second family where people are trying to help each other improve, keep everyone safe, while training hard.
My son has been training with Aaron Morris for three years, while my husband and I have been training for two and a half years. We love it! Whether you're an experienced grappler or a beginner starting your BJJ journey, Hands down, this is one of the best gyms out there. The kids' instructors are truly fantastic!
I cannot say enough good things about WCMA. We enrolled our 4-year-old for "Little Ninjas" to help with his listening skills, discipline and focus. The instructors are absolutely amazing. They are patient, kind, knowledgeable-and firm when needed.
New to muay thai? Start at World Class Martial Arts
World Class Martial Arts 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 World Class Martial Arts
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.
