    “Do I Have Spar?”

    August 24, 2019 by

    Sparring, or “live contact training” is NOT a requirement of our Muay Thai program. Muay Thai Sparring is completely optional and varies depending on your goals. Sparring is for people who want to utilize the skills they have acquired more realistically. Full sparring gear is required to participate in live Muay Thai training, which includes gloves, shin guards, head gear, mouth guard, and cup. Students must be training in our Muay Thai classes consistently for a few months, prior to partaking in this activity if they choose.

    What to Expect in a Typical Muay Thai Class

    August 24, 2019 by

    Our classes start with a group warm up, varying between jump rope, foot work drills, and shadow boxing. We then move forward with instructed partner drills on pads, or with gloves and shin guards. If you do not have gloves to start, we have some you can borrow while trying out class! The class ends with the option to continue to sharpen your technique, with bag work, and sparring, if you choose.

    What is Muay Thai?

    August 24, 2019 by

    Muay Thai, which originates from Thailand, is also referred to as kickboxing. In our Muay Thai program, you will learn the basic techniques of how to throw proper punches, kicks, knees, and elbows. Our focus for our students is practicing the learned technique with proper form to ensure safety, while at the same time, getting in a good workout and having fun!

      Anthony Caciopoli reviewed Ultimate MMA and Jiu-jitsu Training Center – 5

      I specifically wanted to train Marcelo Garcia Jiu Jitsu and that's exactly what you'll get here, in both Gi and No Gi. Along with Boxing, Muay Thai, and a women's boot camp, your younger children can come to train and learn a skill that will not only offer them a safe, fun environment, but serve them the rest of their lives. This facility is large, clean and packed full of competitive champions. Not only do they get out there and do it, but they get out there and keep doing it. No one is made to feel uncomfortable at any age or skill level. They have female instructors as well as males and the women teach the younger kids. My daughter went for her trial day and she loved it. They make the kids classes fun. I've been coming close to six months now and I haven't met one person that wasn't kind or helpful. I really look forward to training here a long time, making new friends with nice people and entering Jiu Jitsu competitions. The trial class is free with no commitment. Come give it a try, it will change and improve your life for the better.

      If there was one place to send your child to learn self defense, and more importantly, confidence, this would be the place. The staff not only knows what they are talking about, but they take a personal approach to every person that is part of the Ultimate MMA family. Contact them today to know that your child is getting the best guidance in the area.

      Fun, friendly environment. Completely different than most would expect. The staff and students are all great mannered, friendly, fun and challenging. You won't be disappointed, also like to add how clean the gym and facilities are.

      Andrew Calandrelli is not only extremely knowledgeable, he is also a talented teacher. I've been to other martial arts schools, some good, some not so much and I have never had the quality of instruction that I've had at this school. Andrew's staff is professional, friendly and have a sincere love for what they do. The facility is exactly what you would imagine a great school to be. The students range in skill level from beginner to expert, but I've noticed that if you train with someone who is much better than you are, it's likely that they'll take a moment to give you some tips to make you better. Great staff, great students, great facility. No need to go anywhere else.”
