From the reviews

I’ve been training with Coach Jay at True Love Muay Thai since I moved to Michigan in 2024. I had been wanting to fight since I started doing Muay Thai 3 years ago and coach Jay got me there. I love how much individualized attention I get for my fight camps and how welcoming they are to people at all levels.

★★★★★ — Chad, Dec 2025

I was doing amateur Kickboxing classes for a while and decided it was time to challenge myself to grow as an athlete, and I have definitely found the perfect place to do that. The coaching is exceptional, the sense of community is strong and it just feels like something you want to be apart of.

★★★★★ — Haylee, May 2026

True Love Muay Thai has changed my life. I have been training with Kru Jason Meller for four years. The environment and people that come to the space are welcoming and will push you because they care.

New to muay thai? Start at True Love Muay Thai

True Love Muay Thai 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 True Love Muay Thai

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.
