San Diego's Kickboxing Gym

Welcome to our San Diego Kickboxing gym. We offer Dutch Style Kickboxing classes for Beginners to Pros. Dutch Kickboxing is the main striking system used in MMA and K-1. It includes Western Boxing, Japanese Kyokushin Karate and Muay Thai. Our coaches are well known for their ambidextrous style of Dutch Kickboxing, which has led to great success in the cage and the ring.

Please note although we offer the best Kickboxing fundamentals classes in San Diego, as well as advanced Kickboxing, this is NOT “Cardio Kickboxing” and we don’t offer those Kickboxing classes here. We’re a real gym and focus on real training for maximum skill acquisition and development.

We offer multiple daily Kickboxing classes in our San Diego gym, ranging from teaching fundamentals to advanced striking and sparring. As in everything we teach, we first build a strong foundation to learn upon. Our Kickboxing fundamentals will improve balance, coordination, fitness and flexibility while teaching the basis of punching and kicking.

From there, we move on to intermediate and advanced Dutch style Kickboxing training. We teach a wide range of offensive and defensive techniques, all taught from our own San Diego Kickboxing style, using an ambidextrous approach and constantly employing multiple angles.

Advanced Kickboxing training in our San Diego gym includes a strong emphasis on sparring for competition. We offer the opportunity to spar in classes, as well as dedicated sparring sessions on specific days. Our athletes compete in a variety of Kickboxing and MMA events, from local Kickboxing and MMA shows like IKF and Epic to national promotions such as Glory and the UFC.

Besides our San Diego group training, we provide specific coaching, cornering and all other aspects of training and prep, including conditioning, nutrition, weight cutting and every other detail needed to succeed for competition.

Our Kickboxing program is run by Coach Vince Salvador. He has a huge amount of experience in training and coaching Dutch style Kickboxing as a stand alone sport, as well as the main striking system for MMA.

Coaches Vince has developed a unique approach to coaching and teaching this striking system. He is widely regarded as one of the most knowledgeable Kickboxing coaches in Combat Sports. He has been instrumental in creating our signature “San Diego Style” for our athletes, who are skilled in fighting from both sides using multiple angles of attack.
