I stayed and trained at this gym for a total of 3 months, and I… read more honestly can’t say enough good things about it. The coaches don’t just train you, they really care about you on a personal level, especially Kru Dam, who made a huge impact on me. While training here, I was able to win my very first fight, and the support I received from everyone made it feel like I was part of a family.
The gym did a lot for me personally, not just in terms of Muay Thai but also in helping me grow as a person. You can tell they care deeply not only about the fighters but also about all of the staff who make the place run. If you’re looking for a gym that pushes you, supports you, and treats you like family, this is the place.

September 22, 2025Very clean gym, owned by arguably the greatest Nak Muay ever. I showed up with… read more my 13 year old son and we were greeted by a sweet older lady who offered us snacks and bananas while we waited for the class to begin. We attended a class with Kru Samarts trainers: Adahm (not sure if that’s how he spells it), Yo and Linglompup. There was one other older trainer but we didn’t get his name unfortunately. Great guys who pushed us to keep going and gave us feedback throughout the session about how we could improve. It was an amazing experience. Kru Samart wasn’t there unfortunately but hopefully we will be back in Thailand one day and we can visit them again! My son and I will definitely remember that experience forever and utilize what they taught us when we train back home.

They are all very technical and helped me to learn the basics. They helped me to get the thai roundhouse kick down and drastically improving my punching, knees, and elbows…now I just have to practice and do more cardio. Much better instruction than the llast gym I attended. These guys are highly recommended!!!
