From the reviews
I’ve been coming for approx 1 month and love it. Real down to earth, chill, and good people here (trainers, the owner, and attendees). Super great workout but more importantly to me, self defense skills that are practical. Doesn’t matter what level you are, classes available for everyone. 10/10 recommend.
Best Muay Thai gym with best coach and professional fighter Ago "The Bosnian Dragon" trains here. They have PFL & Bellator fighters.
This is a wonderful place to learn The Art of 8 Limbs! There is a prevailing culture of Community, Growth, and Humbleness here and it's so fun! The Teachers are patient and amazing and their training and fight acumen is just awesome to behold!
When I first walked into the gym six months ago, I had no idea what Muay Thai was and almost no athletic background. Ronnie and his team inspired and encouraged me from day one.
New to muay thai? Start at Koh Muay Thai and Fitness- Brandon
Koh Muay Thai and Fitness- Brandon 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 Koh Muay Thai and Fitness- Brandon
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.
