Muay Thai questions

Good questions.

Do I need experience to start Muay Thai?

Not at all. Our All Levels classes teach you the foundations of punching, kicking, knees, elbows and defense from day one. When you are ready, Advanced Muay Thai on Wednesdays turns it up.

How big are the classes?

Never more than 10 people, so you get plenty of 1:1 attention and form correction.

What should I wear and bring?

We have a water bottle filler and towels. Wear comfortable workout clothes and shoes and you are all set.

Can I drop in?

Our single Muay Thai class rate is $49.99. Most people start with a free class and a 1:1 Success Session so a coach can build a plan around their goals.

Where are you?

We are in Hollywood at 7264 Melrose Avenue, just a few blocks west of La Brea and minutes from West Hollywood, Fairfax and Mid-City.

Come as you are.
Leave stronger.
