From the reviews
Best MUAYTHAI gym in TEXAS! Whether you’re looking to get into shape or expand your knowledge as a fighter, this is the Gym for you. The owner Mark Beecher with years of experience as a fighter and coach. He’s built champions from the ground up. The gym is in a great and convenient location. Also, is the cleanest gym.
I’ve been training at Hyena Muay Thai under Mark for a year now. I came across it on a whim, and it really was like striking gold. Mark’s wealth of knowledge when it comes to striking is second to none.
My kids and I have been attending classes at Hyena for almost a year now and I am very impressed by both classes. The kids classes: You can immediately tell that the instructor (Mark) loves the kids and the sport. He pushes the kids enough so that they improve and still have a ton of fun while doing so.
I've had the privilege to have learned from Mark at Hyena Muay Thai and I can confidently say that he is one of the best coaches I've ever learned from, sincerely. HIs teaching style transcends his art and helps to open up the minds of his students in a very unique way.
New to muay thai? Start at Hyena Muay Thai Kickboxing
Hyena Muay Thai Kickboxing 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 Hyena Muay Thai Kickboxing
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.
