From the reviews
Everready Muay Thai is amazing! Justin Burns is an incredible coach who has the ability to bring out the best in all ERMT members. Paige Burns is an outstanding mentor who goes above and beyond for everyone she interacts with. I came to ERMT in March & have not left since.
Ever Ready has become one of my favorite spots in Atlanta and a home away from home. As a complete beginner to martial arts, the coaches and team made me feel incredibly welcome and supported - the coaching is technique-based, accessible (while challenging) and really thoughtful.
Great gym for amateur and pro fighters, or if you're just looking to learn the craft and get in shape. Justin is truly a professional from a fighter, coaching, and trainer aspect. One of the best in the business. The gym is very welcoming to all levels of trainees.
Paige has been training my 12 year old daughter for 6+ months now and has done a phenomenal job working with her. Paige is patient yet holds my daughter accountable. She is excellent with her communication and programming, and skilled enough to be flexible and meet her clients where they are at on a given day.
New to muay thai? Start at Ever Ready Muay Thai
Ever Ready Muay Thai comes up as a beginner-friendly gym — noted on their own site. If you've never thrown a punch or a kick, that's exactly who a good beginners program is for. A few things worth knowing before your first week. First, you don't need to be fit to start — you get in shape by training, not before it, and coaches scale the conditioning to you. Second, you won't be thrown into sparring — reputable gyms build fundamentals (stance, footwork, and the basic strikes of the "art of eight limbs") for weeks before any contact, and sparring stays optional. Third, all levels really are welcome — ask about a dedicated beginners or fundamentals class time so your first session is alongside others who are also starting out. Most gyms are happy to let you watch or try a class first, so reach out before you commit.
Your first muay thai class at Ever Ready Muay Thai
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. 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.
