From the reviews

This is a real gym, not planet fitness. Yet it has the most welcoming environment that I've ever seen. JP takes the time with everyone to make sure their form is right and you understand what you are doing right and wrong. Be ready to be pushed to and beyond your limits.

★★★★★ — Chad, Oct 2017

It was a good experience. The gym was clean and well organized. I used one of the personal trainers for my first session, he was very knowledgeable and professional. Overall it was a good experience after many years of not training in a gym.

★★★★★ — Joshua, Dec 2015

Started my martial arts journey here. Have learned so much just in the past 2 years of doing Muay Thai at this gym, learning from great people such as Bobby Dias and even some of the experienced students. Great learning environment and people there to push you to be better.

Your first muay thai class at KO GYM

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.
