From the reviews

I’ve trained at Insight for the last 3 weeks and from my visit, trial period, and beyond I have been treated with respect, care, and a desire by everyone I’ve worked with to see me improve. Professor Alex is very knowledgeable and shows concepts/techniques in relatable ways.

★★★★★ — Brady, Feb 2026

Such an amazing gym! Highly recommend! My kids have been training here for a few months now and the coaches are all amazing, very patient with the kids & very helpful! Once they see something being done not quite right they fix it right away.

★★★★★ — Leecounty, Jan 2026

Started bringing my boys over the summer and they love it. It’s been great as a parent watching their confidence grow over the months. Alex is great with the kids and quite experienced with showing them the proper techniques.

★★★★★ — Marc, Jan 2025

My kids have been training with Coach Alex for 6 years he's not only a coach. He's a mentor. He's taught my children so much about what it means to be responsible and to be leaders in their community he's made us feel like family.

New to muay thai? Start at Insight Brazilian Jiu Jitsu - Judo & Muay Thai - Bastrop

Insight Brazilian Jiu Jitsu - Judo & Muay Thai - Bastrop 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 Insight Brazilian Jiu Jitsu - Judo & Muay Thai - Bastrop

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.
