What To Expect
Real Training Intensity
Fight team training is harder than the regular member classes. More volume. More sparring. More technical depth. Conditioning is brutal.
Real Sparring
You will spar weekly. Sparring is controlled and supervised, but it is real. If you are not ready to spar, you are not ready for the fight team.
Real Accountability
Show up. Train hard. Make weight. Listen to your corner. Fighters who flake or argue with coaches do not last on the team.
Real Results
Fighters who commit see results. Title shots. Pro contracts. National rankings. The path is hard but the path is real.
How To Join
Step 1: Train at Fight Ready as a regular member. Many fight team applications start with members who showed up consistently and demonstrated commitment.
Step 2: Talk to a coach. Tell them you are interested in the fight team. They will assess your skill level and recommend next steps.
Step 3: Apply formally through the fight team interest form. Coaches review every application.
Step 4: Trial period. New fight team members go through a trial period to confirm fit before full team integration.

From the very first class, the coaches made it fun, energetic, and super welcoming. My children come out of every session sweaty, smiling, and more confident than ever. They’ve built real skills, better focus, and tons of discipline, all while having a blast. The atmosphere is positive and family-friendly, with instructors who clearly care about the kids’ growth both on and off the mat.
If you’re looking for kickboxing that actually engages your children and delivers results, this is the place. Highly recommend!

Coach Bobby is the best you can get. My girls love going to his classes—they actually cheer when I tell them it’s kickboxing day! They’re little, but Coach Bobby makes it fun while still helping them learn and build skills. I highly recommend his classes.
