Your Kids Kickboxing Classes questions, answered

Answers to commonly asked questions from the experts on Lessons.

How much do kickboxing classes for kids cost?

Kickboxing classes for kids cost $100 to $150 per month on average, depending on your location and the number of classes per week included in the membership plan. Membership plans that include unlimited classes per month are typically priced at the highest end of the range.

Your child will also need protective equipment, such as headgear, boxing gloves, and a mouth guard costing $50 to $150. You may also want to purchase training pads for $40 to $80 per set to practice with your child at home between classes.

What is kickboxing?

Kickboxing is a martial art and combat sport that relies on striking movements, including punches, kicks, and knees. Kickboxing is typically offered in four different styles:

  • Full-contact kickboxing – Fighters compete with each other while trying to earn points for each strike that makes contact.
  • Semi-contact kickboxing – Players learn the striking movements and self-defense techniques but spar with light contact only.
  • Light-contact kickboxing – Players learn the striking movements and self-defense techniques in a controlled manner and practice with only very light contact while wearing safety gear.
  • Cardio kickboxing – Participants perform kickboxing movements as part of a high-intensity fitness workout.

What are the benefits of kickboxing classes for kids?

Kickboxing classes provide a variety of physical and mental benefits for children:

  • Increases confidence and self-discipline
  • Teaches goal-setting and perseverance
  • Improves focus and concentration
  • Better balance and coordination
  • Improves strength and endurance
  • Teaches self-defense skills
  • Improves cardio health and stamina
  • Improves social skills and teamwork

Is kickboxing good for self-defense?

Kickboxing can be effective for self-defense if learned from a martial arts studio. The sport incorporates strikes like punching and kicking while also teaching your kids to evade or defend against attacks.

However, kickboxing doesn't incorporate grappling moves like those found in Jiu-Jitsu that are designed to help you escape an attacker holding you on the ground.

Cardio kickboxing fitness classes do not teach the same self-defense skills learned in a kickboxing martial arts class.

What is the best age for kids to start kickboxing lessons?

Kids as young as 6 years old can start kickboxing lessons. Most schools have different training approaches for different age groups, with classes for younger children focusing on more playful practice and physical development while older children learn to refine their striking techniques.

How long do kids' kickboxing classes last?

Kids' kickboxing classes typically last 30 to 45 minutes, depending on the age group.

How can I find the best kids' kickboxing classes near me?

Follow these tips to find the best kickboxing studio for your child:

  • Compare monthly membership packages from multiple kickboxing studios.
  • Read studio reviews on Lessons and Google.
  • Visit the studio to confirm it's clean, well-maintained, and the staff is professional.
  • Ask about discounts or special offers for new students.
  • Enroll your child in one class to ensure the studio is a good fit before purchasing a monthly membership.
  • Get a copy of the membership contract in writing before making any payments.

What questions should I ask kickboxing schools?

When evaluating kickboxing studios, ask these important questions:

  • What monthly membership plans do you offer, and how much do they cost?
  • What is your class schedule?
  • Do you offer any discounts or specials for new students?
  • How many kids are in a typical class?
  • At what age can my child attend classes?
  • Are your classes separated by age group?
  • How long does each class last?
  • What should my child wear to the class?
  • What additional equipment will my child need?
