From the reviews

I trained at NWC for over a year and had a great experience. Francisco is extremely knowledgeable in Muay Thai, MMA, and self defense. It was exactly what I was looking for. No matter what level or experience in martial arts you have, I highly recommend going.

★★★★★ — Hector, May 2019

ABSOLUTELY FANTASTIC TRAINING FACILITY!!! Best place to learn the national sport of Thailand. If you’ve ever wanted to learn real deal Muay Thai, this is the spot! Francisco articulates himself when instructing very well. His demonstrations are executed with excellent precision and are second to none.

★★★★★ — Paul, Nov 2019

Wow, came here for spring break a while back, and Francisco is hands down the most intelligent Muay Thai instructor I have ever trained with, in the short time I was there he improved my technique ten fold, and the conditioning was better than what I am used to.

★★★★★ — Jesse, Jul 2016

The best combat gym in DFW as someone already mentioned. Coach Fransico has multiple decades of expirence coaching Muay Thai and other combat sports. The atmosphere is laid back but focused on getting better. There is a true sense of family and community unlike any other gym I've tried.

New to muay thai? Start at New World Combat

New World Combat 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 New World Combat

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. 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.
