My son started training here a month after his 6th birthday. Coach O was patient and supportive while my son learned the techniques. This gym is incredible! All of the coaches are knowledgeable and willing to help. Highly recommend!!!!
I was fortunate enough to be able to drop in The House of Muay Thai while working in the area. Jamila was able to answer any questions I had in a timely manner and get me set up with all the appropriate paperwork. Once on the mat Kru Octavian gave an excellent class on clinch work. Even though I was a drop in, Octavian still gave me plenty of 1-on-1 coaching as if I had been his student for years. I highly recommend this place for anyone wanting to train Muay Thai in the Virginia Beach area. Great clean facility, amazing staff, knowledgeable coaches, and friendly fellow students all make this a place worth checking out.
The coaching staff at The House of Muay Thai stands out for their deep knowledge of mixed martial arts and their ability to teach in an engaging and effective manner. They emphasize both technique and conditioning, ensuring that students develop a strong foundation in striking, grappling, and transitions. The instructors are attentive to individual needs, offering personalized feedback that helps each student progress at their own pace. The atmosphere is both professional and supportive. The team fosters a sense of community, making it an ideal place for beginners and seasoned athletes alike. Training partners are respectful, and the culture promotes camaraderie while encouraging everyone to push their limits. In addition to the high-quality instruction, the facility is clean, well-maintained, and equipped with everything needed for effective MMA training. From the mats to the bags, every detail reflects the gym's dedication to providing a top-tier experience.
Having been a member since April of this year I feel as though I can really give a good, honest, and unbiased review that others may find useful. I joined this gym as a challenge for myself, craving an outlet for my anxiety and anger as well and as much as having the desire to tap into my long-lost athleticism. I got that- and some. The coaches are all not only motivating, but encouraging, non-judgmental, and extraordinarily skilled. The members come from all different skillsets and are equally as inviting and friendly. Tonight I begrudgingly stayed for my second fundamentals class (fitness kickboxing is my go-to.) The coach was so encouraging and kind that my fear of failure disappeared within minutes. I was able to sign up for their six month commitment in April as a commitment to myself, and I’ll happily be extending that this fall because I totally caught the bug. Do yourself a favor and sign up for their free trial class and STAY for fitness kickboxing. Best decision I made this year.
Joining a gym was way out of my comfort zone and completely new to me. I didn’t know what to expect and definitely have gym anxiety big time. But after each class I feel a little more confident and all the instructors are thorough and will walk around and respectfully correct/help each student. Each instructor is different and has useful advice to bring to each class. If sharing a bag with another student they are more than happy to help if you forget a combo or need help polishing your stance. Just all around good people. Also, they keep the gym clean and it feels very professional. Give it a try if you’re considering!
