I came in for a trial class and everyone was really friendly and supportive. I had never done any martial arts before and am very happy to have found a supportive environment where I can practice and learn another skillset. Steven has been amazing showing me around the facility and taking me through everything I needed to know!

I been a member at the arena for over a year now and I can honestly say coach Joe is the best boxing coach around. Super knowledgeable and well known around the boxing community. Also all the team members are really nice and friendly and always welcoming.

Signed up primarily for boxing and Muay Thai. I've been to several boxing 'fundamental' classes at different times of day however they only consist of pad work after a quick warmup with no instruction or guidance (or at the bare minimum we are taught one simple combo that we drill for the entire hour). Otherwise, we are just doing random combinations without actually knowing if your technique is correct, there is 0 feedback or communication from the coaches even if the class is small. The coaches are definitely experienced but they don't seem to care about improving your skill at boxing unless you are on their boxing team. With that said, S&C and Muay Thai were excellent and the coaches were very attentive, I can't speak about the other classes as I haven't been to them. Ken and Dylan at the front desk are very friendly and welcoming, and all of the members are very patient with beginners.

Just started boxing here. Never in my life have I trained. But this is the most fun yet super intense training. I’m happy to show up to class and not know what we will be doing that day. But since coming my punches have gotten better. Just got to practice in this foot work. Definitely recommend, staff is great and everyone is super nice. Like a big happy family.

Most impressive and expansive facilities I have seen yet. Open all day with classes every hour, The Arena features separate buildings for Jujitsu, Boxing and Muay Thai / MMA all connected on one central campus. The staff are welcoming and the coaches are knowledgeable. They have even trained Navy SEALs. Try for one day - 24 hr pass. This place is a gem - a treasure for anyone who lives in San Diego and is looking to develop themselves as a fighter or just to learn new skills and better themselves.
