From the reviews
Great Thai boxing gym the atmosphere is great. But where this place shines is it's instructors. It's real Muay Thai nothing is watered down and they push you to that standard.
Been coming here for bout 1.5 years and Coach Cash is very professional and knows how to teach muay thai from the very basics. Everything taught here is very traditional. If you want to be a traditional muay thai fighter and compete. Come here. But it won't come easy. You must have dedication and discipline.
Hands on Muay Thai instruction for ages 5+. Instructor Cash is great with children and has the knowledge to improve anyone's combat skills. The adult classes are tough and a source of constant improvement. Attendees are friendly. You will make friends.
Coach Willis is dedicated in training you the proper techniques and really pushes you so you can deal with practical scenarios in the real world. One heck of a workout too! He's the real deal, he is patient and down to earth.
New to muay thai? Start at John 14:6 Muay Thai | Martial Arts Gym Tucson
John 14:6 Muay Thai | Martial Arts Gym Tucson comes up as a beginner-friendly gym, going by their listing and members’ reviews. 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 John 14:6 Muay Thai | Martial Arts Gym Tucson
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.
