From the reviews
Really Great Training here. I am an amature fighter and train here. The head coach Kru Yai Belton is extremely experienced everything from muy thai to FMA to Bjj to health and fitness he has certifications and lineages from the best.
The coaches are patient and are extremely good at breaking down the concepts so that both kids and adults can understand the techniques and application. They keep it fun so that the kids are engaged and excited about learning. Highly recommended!
We are from Kazakhstan. And my 12 year old son, training in this gym, at bjj and muay thai classes. I think this is a best gym in Seattle. Belton Lubas and Henry Galindez is a best coaches.
Absolutely amazing gym. I train at a sister gym in spokane & I attended a seminar here in Bellevue with Kru Yai Belton, Kru Micah & ONE Champion Jo Nattuwat & it was awesome. The team is amazing, I am coming to visit again for a seminar this July with my younger brother.
New to muay thai? Start at Warrior Strength Martial Arts
Warrior Strength Martial Arts 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 Warrior Strength Martial Arts
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.
