Arriving at the Gym
Our gym entrance is located in the rear of the plaza, so please park in the back and come in through the rear entrance. We recommend arriving 10–15 minutes early to get checked in, meet your instructor, and get oriented before class begins.
What You’ll Experience
Your first class will focus on:
- Basic movements and positions
- A welcoming, structured warm-up
- Introduction to fundamental techniques
- Safe, beginner-friendly drills
There is no pressure to spar during your first class. You’ll train at your own pace in a respectful, supportive environment.
