★★★★★ — Ari, Jun 2016

Vermont Muay Thai is a very traditional and authentic Muay Thai camp. The space is equipped with a variety of tires for kicking, a decent selection of heavy bags (thicker and thinner), weights and plenty of areas for pull-ups. The camp is led by Dan Martin.

★★★★★ — Bob, Jul 2019

Vermont Muay Thai is such a gem of Brattleboro! The gym offers classes for the whole family, taught by Tati and Quinn, who are excellent at what they do and are such genuinely good people. The kids' classes are phenomenal.

I’ve never taken martial arts and joined my first Adults Muay Thai class last night. Tatiyana and Quinn are so kind and welcoming! They make sure beginners feel comfortable learning the foundations and get a great workout! Don’t hesitate, meet some great people, join a class and get a good sweat!

New to muay thai? Start at Vermont Muay Thai

Vermont 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 Vermont 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.
