From the reviews

Very cool! Anyone looking for smaller classes where everyone gets productive instruction from professional instructors will love this gym. You will learn more here than the larger gyms were you can get lost especially as a beginner. Frank was great and kept a good flow with each new exercise. Thanks!

Since I have joined this gym. It has changed me, mentally and physically. I love the trainers and the participants, it's a family. We push each other to be our greatest. I love it everyday!.

★★★★★ — Shane, May 2014

Hands down one of the best gyms in the US. Kru David Huey is world class. I am a coach myself and it is an honor to train with him.

★★★★★ — Dean, Aug 2020

Best Muay Thai Gym in the valley! I travel all the way from Simi Valley 4-5 times a week. I pass by many other gyms on the way because it is worth the drive. Prices are the best, training is amazing, everyone here is family. If you like sparring, you can spar every day.

New to muay thai? Start at Muay Thai America Gym

Muay Thai America Gym 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 Muay Thai America 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.
