I usually go to the Saturday classes which Kim teaches. She might be petite but don't let that fool you. She is an absolute assassin! She keeps a good fast pace for the class and is always willing to break down and demonstrate a movement again to you if you're having trouble. I need to start being more consistent because you only get out what you put in. I am moving very soon back to Long Island but will probably keep my membership going if I can because they're that awesome.

After a few years on Muay Thai, it is time to mix it up and go into BJJ. What did I get myself into?!!! It HURTS, training hurts a lot ! It is a very dangerous, rough, and aggressive sport. By the time I finish my training class I am totally exhausted. All the training is close physical contact with my training partners, is like our bodies entangle into each other and we have this extreme real fight for possession of each other's body with the goal to win the fight by locking the opponent's body till he/she taps out. I am extremely focused on the classes as we are taught how to move and lock the body of the opponent fighter, who new that the body have so many ways to be used for fighting techniques. This is by far, the roughest fighting sport I had done so far, and my favorite one because is a body on body and floor fight. Being on a floor and being able to practice self defense is amazing. Of course, I am extremely careful and so are my partners with each other's body so we do not hurt each other by accident. I am also very quick to tap out as soon as they lock me in so I do not end with a broken bone. I would feel horrible if I hurt one of my partners so we are indeed very careful. Practicing with many men with different bodies size makes the training so much better, because it gives me real life experience managing different bodies size for a real life situation. Who knew!, lol. There is a sense of brotherhood, respect, and familiarity with my training partners, they see me as one of the guys, it is a lot of fun to do this with them. I am known for having a really strong hold and force, my touch and grab is very manly, I do not have girl soft hands at all. There are many great and fascinating things about this classes, and one is that we constantly switch partners during the class. As one of my training partners walked away, he advised the next partner coming to me "You are in for Blood", I guess, they call me Blood. lol The locking, I love to have discovered the extreme force of my inner tighs, when I put a training partner in a headlock right off my birth canal with my inner tighs and use so much force till he taps, girl power. I feel so happy to be able to learn and practice all these skills. There are many more tricks and locking positions that I will learn and that is what makes me so in love with this fighting technique.

I have been going to Maspeth Martial Arts for almost two years now, attending the fitness…read morekickboxing classes about twice a week. The classes provide you with a fantastic work out, working out different muscle groups each time so that your body is constantly challenged and struggling to adapt. It is the best workout I have ever had. If you attend them consistently you definitely start to see results, my waistline has shrunk and my biceps have exploded, and I have much greater endurance. There is also the additional stress relief benefit of hitting a bag. The classes are flexible and the price is reasonable. The staff is very friendly and helpful and the facility is immaculately clean. I would definitely recommend it. My only suggestion is to offer a class a little later in the evening for those who work later.

I've been to…read moreother gyms in lower Manhattan and Williamsburg/Bushwick, and what stands out here is that this place feels like a community as soon as you walk in. All the coaches are knowledgeable, talented, and respectful - but I need to shout out a few wonderful humans in particular (the ones I've taken the most consistent classes with). Hannah - kettlebell MASTER. Makes classes fun, functional, approachable, and just the right amount of hard. I've seen my upper body strength improve greatly and learned a ton of cool moves with kettlebells I wouldn't ever have expected. Xtina - remarkably kind and encouraging. Creates a fun and challenging HIIT class that's never boring and is always a full body workout (plus fun playlists). Plus, the coaches for all athletic/strength training coordinate classes to rotate the focus each month so 1. You can see progress and 2. You have something new to look forward to each month. Bri - creates such a warm atmosphere with a focus on wellness and athleticism in creative ways. Has an eye for detail that makes the most basic of moves more challenging in the best way possible. Nhi - a Muay Thai powerhouse who coaches both coed and women/nonbinary classes. I appreciate Nhi's encouraging approach and ability to point out small improvements in technique that make a big difference. This gym and its people are awesome, and if you needed more reason: some of the coaches and more longtime members bring their pups to the gym. So yeah, it's great.
