Field Martial Arts Academy

You WILL be challenged! I first came for the ilovekickboxing workout and now i am totally addicted! Whatever condition you think you’re in, you will get a great workout! The best workout is the early early workout that starts at 5:45am. They have plenty of classes at all convenient times of the day — before work /​school, lunch, and after work. They also have early morning weekend workouts too. The instructors are all incredibly motivating and you will love pushing yourself to your limits. I just can’t say enough great things about this place!!!

I have come a long way in my fitness journey, and Field Martial Arts Academy is an essential part of it. I started with the I Love Kickboxing program in June 2013 when FMAA was still in the Sharon location, and followed them to the current Norwood location. The kickboxing classes were divided into 2 halves: first round is conditioning — upper body, lower body, total body, cardio, you name it. Second round you go on the bags either with a partner or by yourself and practice combos of punches and kicks. Derek Field and his team of instructors makes the hour fly by with different exercises each class, you will never go to the same class twice!
Recently, hubby and I joined the adult martial arts program. My first impression was «this makes kickboxing feels like a warm-​up». The group of adult martial artists are the most hard-​working, friendliest, realest and coolest group of people I have ever met. Mr. Field and Mr. Lewis push and motivate their students out of their comfort zone and I have greatly benefited from this. I am in the best shape of my life right now — I am now able to run much faster and for longer periods of time and can do more push-​ups before going onto my knees. Even with an injury, Mr. Field and Mr. Lewis were able to modify the cirriculum so that I do not have to miss any part of the class. After 3 months of martial arts classes, I have built muscles and lost at least a dress size. I have never felt so good about myself and I look forward to going to class all the time! I highly recommend FMAA — you have nothing to lose besides those unwanted pounds!

Best martial arts school and best kickboxing place you can ever find! Facility is neat, clean and very well organized and you its the best bang for your buck you can get.

Kickboxing at Field martial arts is Best thing I have ever done for myself! Derek, Bryan, Kelsey, Kera and Jess are inspiring, upbeat, intense (in a good way) and just fun to be around. I never worked out before in my life and now I am addicted to kickboxing! Lost 16 pounds in six months and I feel GREAT!

If you are looking for a great workout with fun people of all ages and trainers who are motivating, supportive, and generally care about their fellow students then this is where you belong. No two classes are ever the same and yet the energy, challenges and rewards are consistent. There are a variety of times and every teacher brings a level of energy and motivation with them. You always have options to modify the exercise. You might start out doing push ups from your knees and one day find you can do them from your toes. I started with a groupon and have been a member for over three years. Give it a try. You will be glad you did!

The Real Deal!!! Derek Field and his team of martial arts and kickboxing instructors are the best I’ve ever had the pleasure to learn from! When I first started 8 weeks ago, I couldn’t do a single sit up and 5 burpees wore me out. But 8 weeks and 15 pounds lighter, I am able crush 50 burpees in a row and 40 sit-​ups is not a problem. The team motivates you and they are a super fun bunch who want you to succeed in your goal for a healthier life. The cardio conditioning and the bag works are awesome. You’re guaranteed to sweat your way to a healthier body as long as you show up! I recommend Field Martial Arts Academy to anyone who is ready to work hard and get the results they want — and have lots of fun doing it!

BEST WORKOUT EVER… total body conditioning! Builds strength, stamina and confidence. Derek Field and Bryan Lewis are professional and dedicated instructors who motivate and challenge you to become the best version of yourself! Fast-​paced, fun and effective! I began with a 10 class Groupon…3+ years later, I average 4 – 5 classes a week… the reason, RESULTS! I am proud to say at 55 I am in the best shape of my life! And as an added bonus. I have had the privilege of meeting and working out with some of the best people I know!

I was bored with my work outs and didn’t really know what i was looking for. I was looking for various classes and stumbled across their kickboxing class. They were having a 3 class + gloves for $ 19.99 deal so i didn’t have anything to lose by trying a class. All i can say is this class can easily become my new addiction! The energy from Brian was amazing (even at 5:45am)! The workout is literally full body, there is not a part of you that will not work during the 60 minutes! They incorporate a bit of everything, so there is no time to get bored or even look at the clock.

I redeemed a Living Social voucher for a FABULOUS self-​defense seminar at Field Martial Arts today. Derek is a fun and talented teacher. I had a great time and would highly recommend this school.

Mr. Field and Mr. Lewis are people that you will meet once and never forget! Their amazing energy and degree of passion are a force to be reckoned with! Before my family even stepped foot into the Field Martial Arts studio, Mr. Field called to get a better understanding of what we were looking to get out of the program and to make sure he was able to satisfy the needs of each of my family members unique requests: Confidence building techniques for my older daughter, focused energy for my little one, stress relief for my husband and weight loss for myself. In the months that we have been attending classes, Mr. Field and Mr. Lewis have not only kept their promise, but has also gone above and beyond to make sure we are all sticking with it, following through and being true to ourselves. Having people so fully invested in the success of each and every individual huge. Everyone that comes through the door is treated with trust, respect and optimism. Field Martial Arts is the place to be!

I have never been a fan of working out in my life, but I actually look foward to these kickboxing classes! Mr Field & Mr. Lewis are so friendly, encouraging, & energetic, you can’t help but feel excited about being there! I’ve done things in class that I literally thought my body wasn’t even capable of, like push-​ups, & I feel stronger & fitter than I ever have before.
I was lucky enough to try this fabulous place first, so I have no idea what similar businesses are like, but I can honestly say that there’s no way it gets any better than Field Martial Arts Academy, & I highly recommend it to everyone!

I purchased the groupon a few months ago and finally went to my first class last night. It was fantastic! The reviews are true. The instructors, Derek and Bryan, were friendly, positive and extremely motivating. I had such a great workout and am looking forward to the next class!

Since I have joined Field Martial Arts Academy’s kickboxing class about a month ago, I have never felt better in my life. My confidence and self esteem have increased while my stress level has significantly decreased. I feel stronger after every class and I can do things I have never been able to do before! The workout is incredible; we work up such a sweat and burn lots of calories. I can see the difference in my body already! It is also fun at the same time and I find my self smiling during class. Mr. Field and Mr. Lewis are amazing! They are extremely encouraging and have such a positive energy and are patient enough to take the time to help each person throughout class. Mr. Field and Mr. Lewis care about each and every person that walks through the door! I would give Field Martial Arts Academy 100 stars if I could!

The kickboxing classes at Field Martial Arts might possibly be the most fun I’ve ever had while getting a ridiculously good workout. Mr. Field and Mr. Lewis have so much positive energy, it adds so much to the workout. I look forward to working out now. It’s the fastest hour I’ve ever spent burning calories.
