What every class has in common

01

A warm-up that actually teaches something

Movements in the warm-up are the same shapes you will use in technique — not filler cardio.

02

Technique broken into steps you can hold onto

Coaches demonstrate, then walk the room. You will not be left guessing what you are supposed to be doing.

03

Drilling with respectful partners

Training partners are matched thoughtfully. Intensity is controlled, and there is no reward for hurting anyone.

04

Live training, supervised

Sparring is available for every age group in a controlled setting, and it is always your choice when to step in.

05  Questions

Questions before your first class

Anything not covered here, just ask — call or text (657) 210-1615 and a coach will answer.

Adults with no experience start in the Fundamentals class, which covers basic movement, positions and self-defence. Children aged 4 to 14 start in the Little Phenoms kids program, grouped by age. If you want striking rather than grappling, start in Muay Thai Fundamentals.

Yes. Many students cross-train grappling and striking. Ask us about combining the two when you come in for your intro class.

Two to three sessions a week is enough to make steady progress without burning out. Students preparing for competition typically train more often and add specific drilling.

Comfortable athletic clothing is fine for a first class, and we will tell you what you need after that. Call or text (657) 210-1615 if you would like to check before you come in.

Private and small-group coaching is available by appointment, including for Muay Thai. Contact the team to arrange a time.
