From the reviews
I’ve been training at Pure Muay Thai for close to 4 years now. All of the trainers are great to learn from, classes are fun and very similar to the flow of training at a Muay Thai camp in Thailand. Head trainer Greg hosts great seminars of high level fighters, which all members receive at a lower rate.
Martial Arts gyms simply don’t get better than this place. I dabbled with Thai kickboxing in high school but found a lot of the places really intimidating. I have been out of shape and never regularly exercised in almost 30 years. Now, as a 45 year old adult, I was welcomed warmly from day 1.
I never write reviews, but this place deserves one because people need to know how great this gym truly is. I was looking for something that would provide me with an all-around great workout. As a beginner, with no martial arts experience, I have always been too intimidated to try Muay Thai.
Pure is an incredible gym where my kids have been training for about 3 years now. The instructors are amazing and great with the kids, keeping them fully engaged throughout every class. Each week they focus on a "Word of the Week," which centers around values like respect, discipline, and personal growth.
New to muay thai? Start at Pure Muay Thai and Fitness Club LLC
Pure Muay Thai and Fitness Club LLC comes up as a beginner-friendly gym, going by their listing and members’ reviews. 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 Pure Muay Thai and Fitness Club LLC
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.
