From the reviews
This is an excellent gym offering a variety of martial arts, all with qualified instruction. Muay Thai, BJJ, Boxing and Sambo all covered in the various pricing packages that they offer, and the price is very reasonable. I haven't met an unwelcoming face in the building yet nor do I suspect I ever will.
This is by far the best gym I've ever been to. If you are just looking for a great workout in a fun and fast paced environment this is the place, and then you'll get even more than that! You will also learn new skills. If you are training to be a pro fighter, then this is the place.
I've been going to Combat Fitness for a few months now. I started going because its the only gym I knew of open doing outside classes during the COVID lockdown. The classes are great, the training is second to none and the staff is super friendly and helpful!
Alright I'm as new as a baby when it comes to martial arts and all of the instructors have been awesome! Your classmates are super relaxed and understand everyone has a day 1 at some point.
New to BJJ? Start at Combat Fitness - Muay Thai - MMA - BJJ
Combat Fitness - Muay Thai - MMA - BJJ comes up as a beginner-friendly gym, going by their listing and members’ reviews. If you've never rolled or set foot on a mat, 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 or flexible to start — you get in shape by training, not before it, and coaches scale the intensity to you. Second, you won't be thrown into hard rolling — reputable gyms build fundamentals (positions, escapes, and basic submissions) for weeks, live rolling eases in gradually, and tapping early keeps every roll safe. 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, and leave your ego at the door. Most gyms are happy to let you watch or try a class first, so reach out before you commit.
Your first BJJ class at Combat Fitness - Muay Thai - MMA - BJJ
Nervous about walking into a BJJ 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 basic positions and escapes with a partner — not hard sparring. Rest whenever you need to; no one will bat an eye. What to wear: athletic wear you can move in (or a gi if you have one); you'll train barefoot on the mats. What to bring: water and a mouthguard if you have one — many gyms lend a loaner gi for a first class, so it's worth asking when you call. As you keep training you'll add your own gi (or a rashguard and shorts for no-gi) and a mouthguard. Live rolling eases in gradually, 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.
