From the reviews
No Weak Days Fight Academy is the best! The gym is clean, the atmosphere is welcoming, and the front desk staff are so kind. Moses is a phenomenal instructor who is skilled, patient, and motivating. He knows exactly how to meet you where you are and help you achieve your fitness or martial arts goals. Highly recommend!
It was my first time having a class there at NWD Fight Academy. I never been coached before in Muay-Thai or Boxing so for my first time, it was different and fun. Tiring, but fun. Moses is a great teacher and I hope others will have a fun experience there like I did. Its not easy, but its not hard. No weak days💪🏿
Best fighting gym around! First time in I felt right at home even though Im newer to martial arts and I felt like I was slowing down the class at any point. Moses is great to work with and the gym is gorgeous too. 10/10 would recommend!
I can’t say enough about the workouts Moses has in store for everyone. I trained with Moses back when he was at Gold’s Gym, and now that he’s built his own academy, the results speak for themselves.
New to muay thai? Start at No Weak Days Fight Academy
No Weak Days Fight Academy 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 No Weak Days Fight Academy
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.
