From the reviews

This gym is well worth a visit. I travel regularly for work and hate taking training breaks, so I've been to a lot of gyms. This one is one of the nicest I've ever been to. It's owned by a female black belt; her two kids are also blackbelts and they teach many of the classes. Talk about a talented family!

I trained for 2 years at Maverick. You will truly get the best training around Huntsville and in Alabama. The facility is spotless at all times and the expected hygiene standards are always upkept. Maverick offers a variety of classes that allowed me to train at flexible times, as my schedule changed often.

★★★★★ — Travis, Nov 2023

I can’t say enough good things about Maverick Training Center. My 5- and 6-year-old boys both go here, and it has been incredible for them, especially my 6-year-old, who is naturally very shy and suffers from pretty severe anxiety.

★★★★★ — Katherine, Oct 2025

I have been training Jiu Jitsu and Muay Thai at Maverick Training Center since Oct 2022 and I am thankful to have found this place. The gym has a warm and welcoming presence. All of the instructors are professional and extremely competent in their craft. They maintain the cleanest gym that I have ever seen.

Your first muay thai class at Maverick Training Center

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.
