★★★★★ — Gretchen, Dec 2025

Cyrus is a wonderful human being! Cyrus runs incredible sessions. His technical coaching is top-notch, his conditioning drills are brutal (in the best way!), and he has an intimidating, focused presence that helps you push past your limits. He will seriously transform your strength and technique.

★★★★★ — Xela, Dec 2025

Coach Cyrus is one of the best coaches and people I have had the pleasure of meeting and training with. His attention technique and detail accelerated my skills in the ring and in life. He shares his knowledge in a way that helps you expand your mindset.

★★★★★ — Brandy, Dec 2025

At nearly 50 years old, my experience at DMT has been inspiring. Mr. Washington challenges the class like a coach and personal trainer, but guides us like a teacher every step of the way. His presence is spiritual and serious...like the martial arts is a calling.

Your first muay thai class at Dynamite Muay Thai & Martial Arts

Nervous about walking into a muay thai gym for the first time? Almost everyone is, and good coaches expect beginners to come through the door. Here's what to know. What to expect: a typical first class is a warm-up, then drilling the basics on pads and bags — not fighting. Rest whenever you need to; no one will bat an eye. What to wear: shorts or athletic wear and a t-shirt; you'll train barefoot on the mats. What to bring: water and hand wraps if you have them — many gyms lend gloves for a first class, so it's worth asking when you call. As you keep training you'll add your own gloves, wraps, a mouthguard, and shin guards. Sparring is optional and comes later, once your fundamentals are solid. Arrive 10–15 minutes early to sign a waiver and meet the coach. It gets easier fast — most people feel far more at home by their third class.

Muay thai is a contact sport. Ease in, listen to your coaches, and if you have any injuries or health concerns, mention them before class and check with a doctor if you're unsure.
