What each program builds
Schedule questions
How do I know which class is right for me or my child?
Tell us your age or your child's age and experience, and we will point you to the right class. Little Dragons serves ages 4-8. Kids MMA and Kids MMA & Athletic Training serve ages 6-12. Youth MMA and Youth MMA & Athletic Training serve ages 11-17. On Saturdays, the 11:15am class is Youth-Teen-Adult MMA for ages 13 and up, all levels, and 11 and 12 year olds train in Kids MMA at 10:30am. Placement also considers experience and maturity.
Can I start any week, or do I have to wait for a new block to begin?
Most ongoing classes welcome new students throughout the year. The homeschool beta is a dated six-session block with its own registration dates. Contact us so we can confirm the right starting point for your child or for you: Co-Ed Kickboxing meets Monday and Wednesday at 5:30pm, for example, and beginner-friendly Youth-Teen-Adult MMA meets Saturday at 11:15am.
Do you have morning classes?
Yes. Women's Only Strength & Kickboxing runs Monday and Wednesday at 9:00am, and Women's Only Kickboxing runs Tuesday and Thursday at 9:00am. Most other classes run in the late afternoon and evening, and the full grid is on the schedule.
How soon can I get in?
Often the same day or within a day or two, depending on the class and when you reach us; texting gets the fastest reply. Tell Forge Athletics in Naples your age, experience and the class you want so we can confirm a time rather than have you arrive for the wrong class. Co-Ed Kickboxing meets Monday and Wednesday at 5:30pm; Youth-Teen-Adult MMA welcomes beginners Saturday at 11:15am.
What happens if I miss a class?
You attend another one that week instead. Memberships are not locked to a single class time: you can attend any class that matches your age group and membership level, so if you normally come on a Monday and cannot make it, another eligible class later in the week works just as well. The homeschool beta is a dated block with its own rule: a session a family misses is not automatically made up.
Where do I park and which entrance do I use?
Enter Parking Garage D next to Twin Peaks, drive through the middle of the garage toward the front, park anywhere and come through our black doors. You do not need to walk through the mall. If you are already inside Coastland Center, head to the center and turn at the Zales entrance. Garage D is covered parking, and kids can be dropped off and picked up at our drive-up area. If you ride, there is a bike rack right outside our front entrance.
Do I need to book, or can I just show up?
Please contact us before coming in. We want to know who is arriving, what program you are interested in, and which class or starting process fits you best. If you are bringing a child, their age and experience can also affect which class we recommend.
Booking ahead gives our staff and coaches time to prepare for your visit, place you correctly, and make sure you are not arriving for the wrong class. You can call, text, email, or message us through social media. We will help you choose the right starting point.
Can I watch a class before joining one?
Yes. You are welcome to stop by Forge Athletics in Naples and watch before deciding whether to train. Pick a time when the program you are considering is running, Co-Ed Kickboxing on Monday and Wednesday at 5:30pm for example, and contact us first so we expect you and can answer your questions. Watching commits you to nothing.
Who can join Teen & Adult MMA (Advanced)?
Teens and adults with at least two to three years of prior martial arts training. Enrollment is open, and it starts with a conversation with the coach about your current level, because this class includes real MMA and sparring. If you are newer to MMA, the Saturday Youth-Teen-Adult MMA class welcomes ages 13 and up, including beginners, and Co-Ed Kickboxing is another option for striking without sparring.
Is there an adult MMA class?
Yes, two. Youth-Teen-Adult MMA runs Saturday at 11:15am for ages 13 and up, all levels, beginners welcome. Teen & Adult MMA (Advanced) runs Monday and Wednesday at 6:30pm and requires at least two to three years of prior martial arts training and a conversation with the coach. Adults who want striking without sparring train in Co-Ed Kickboxing.
Does anything change during season?
Kids classes usually have 4 to 12 students and never more than 18. If season pushes a kids class to 14-16 students, we add another class time rather than allowing coaching quality to drop. As the academy grows, we will add intermediate and advanced classes for kids who have trained for at least two years. Moving experienced students into those groups creates more room in beginner classes and allows coaches to give newer students the attention they need while building strong foundations. Memberships are not locked to one time, so members can attend another class that matches their age group and membership level. For parking, use Parking Garage D next to Twin Peaks, park anywhere available, and come through our black doors without walking through the mall.
