From the reviews
This by far is one of the best martial arts schools in Florida. I’m 47 yrs old and I started when I was 13 yrs old. And I can tell you that when we competed we took all the divisions by storm taking 1,2and third in most tournaments You will not only learn a traditional martial arts that will be your foundation.
This instructor right here is the perfect instructor (if there was to be one). He teaches with passion and guidance by taking his time to teach every moves with the right angles and steps, he doesn't sugarcoat ( he's well experienced ) and enjoy teaching.
I have known Master Ramos for about 40 years. He is a gifted instructor, with knowledge in multiple disciplines. Throughout the years, his students have won many prestigious events. Most importantly, however, is that Ramos Sensei is a tremendous human being.
excellent and knowledgeable instructor. Wether you are a beginner or you want to improve your skills or you want your child to learn true martial arts this is the place to go to
New to muay thai? Start at Zion Martial Arts
Zion 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 Zion 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.
