Since 2013 · Kochi, Kerala
Led by an international kickboxing champion. Home to 14+ national champions and counting. Three branches across Ernakulam and Kakkanad.
Who We Are
SpaRing Lifestyle is a combat sports gym in Kochi. We have been running since 2013, with two training branches — YMCA (Shenoys, Ernakulam) and Edachira (Kakkanad) — plus a dedicated strength and conditioning floor at the YMCA Multi Gym.
What makes SpaRing different from every other fitness centre in Kochi is simple: combat sports is not a side-offering here — it is the entire reason we exist. We run dedicated classes in boxing, kickboxing, MMA, SAMBO, wrestling, and grappling — with proper coaches for each discipline.
We are also the only gym in Ernakulam with a dedicated SAMBO training programme, and the only one in Kochi running serious wrestling and grappling classes.
Meet Our Head Coach
SpaRing was founded and is led by Kiran V S — an international kickboxing champion and one of Kerala's most established combat sports coaches.
Under Kiran's coaching, SpaRing has produced 14+ national champions. His students have competed at state, national, and international levels — including medal winners at the Kerala State Kickboxing Championship and athletes who have represented India at national-level kickboxing competitions.
"I started SpaRing because Kochi didn't have a place where combat sports were taught the way they deserve to be taught. Every national champion who has come out of this gym has done so by training properly — not by shortcuts. That's the only standard we hold here."
— Kiran V S, Founder & Head CoachSenior Coaches
Kiran is supported by a team of senior coaches, each specialising in one or more combat sports disciplines. You're coached by practitioners — not personal trainers who took a weekend certification.
