dont bother at muayfit. . its not muay thai, you do a lot of cardio stuff, good for exercising but you dont learn anything at all. try other more authentic muay thai gyms.

1) Merican muay thai
2) Kirsty Muay Thai
3) TNT kickboxing (not exactly muay thai)
4) Sparta Muay Thai

what do u mean by cardio? running? or non-sense exercise
as long as got kicking and punching thats a good start

Hey, happened to stumble upon this thread. Kinda interested here.
Can someone share the price range if i were to participate in any Muay class?

62/mth at muayfit..
150/mth at sparta muay thai

Feel like trying
What to expect from the class usually?
Apart from kicking and punching?

they hv pro trainer like arnaud lepont
and hot chick too..

lol really?
Are you in any session yet?
Would love to hear your opinion

already attend their trial class.. not sign anything yet
quite interesting, punching n kicking and cardio too
and they offer not only muay but many martial art class for 62/mth vry cheap
u shud try to contact them to arrange trial class for u, then u decide later lah if u wanna join

Since that you've been to their trial session, would you recommend it to me then?
Just want opinion from someone who have been there for real

I'll look for a day for their trial nonetheless.
I'd prefer Muay actually. seems like the most practical self defense art to me so far.
Kinda of contemplating want to sign up for any class or not.
Afraid it'll be too aggressive for me to handle.

thanks for the insight anyways

Im planning to join on march, currently im on strength training at fitness gym
yes muaythai is raw thats y i like it but nothing aggressive here, its safe
but for MMA, its quite tough.. like wrestlemania

Um... strength training, is it compulsory? Can't i just straight joining the session?

LOL i'm not planning to participate in MMA

not compulsory, just i need to finish strength training first bcoz i sign-up for 6 months at diff. gym
u can start joining the session, no problem. at muayfit also got strength/weight equipment

depends on your goals.

perhaps you can tryout the classes at these places first and then make a judgment?

i know most of these gyms give out free trials.

but i was a member of muayfit and after a while, its not as fun anymore. small space, crowded, bad equipment.

merican is pretty good but its quite pricey.

right now im training at sparta muay thai at oasis, ara damansara. they are a tiger muay thai affiliate. and so far it has been great, they have two thai trainers in every class and the centre is really nice

Added on January 5, 2012, 5:54 pmmuayfit prices are reallly cheap but thats on a 2 year contract. =)

each gym have their own pros and cons...u should try out their free trials first before committing

---

Added on January 5, 2012, 5:56 pmfor muay thai...i'd suggest u try:

1) Merican Muay Thai (Solaris Dutamas)
2) Sparta Muay Thai (Ara Damansara)

dont go muay fit.. this is based on experience. =) i was a member there for 1 year. =)

care to elaborate more?

If you want to learn from real MMA fighters and learn many different martial arts, Muay Fit is ideal. But if you want pure Muay Thai, they may not be the best gym.

learn basic only..

i heard theres a lot of muay thai, some are for army based? i saw one master the knuckles are flat. hard training man

Fine print:
RM62/mth at muayfit only if you sign up for 2 years contract...
You have to sign up at least 5 months for RM700, but they'll give you extra 3 months (thus 8 months = RM700).
If sign up for 9 months for RM1260, they'll give you extra 9 months.

im member thr too, wat i cn say bout them is they r the cheapest in town ledi, im paying rm66 per month, i cn bet wif u u wil never find a martial arts gym below rm100 in the whole malaysia.......

n the gud thing is they got classes everyday, even sat n sun, n u jz go the class anyday u r free or available.......n they hav alot of martial arts classes, muay thai, MMA, krav maga , systema n alot more , all those for
rm66 per month, thrs no limit to how many classes u go n u cn go for every single class thr oso no problem

rm 66 per month is you pay monthly or pay in every 5 months?

i took 12 months package, then they give me free 6 more months, so 18 months for 1.2k which makes it arnd rm66 per month

hav to pay the full amount in 1 shot......

so cannot pay monthly?

but they do accept credit cards, so u cn use credit card pay first, then take instalment, for 1 year or so, then every month pay rm66++ lo......dis is wat they tell me la when i joined them, but i pay by cash......lol

yeah true but for MMA-lovers, Muay Fit is still the best gym to go for. they have many fighters coming over to train the members.
however, as i said, for pure and more advance Muay Thai training, i think Sparta's Tiger Muay Thai training is the best

its for girls..

hi mate, hows ur training in sparta muaythai
r u still there? how is it going

MMA - Mixed Martial Arts.

Pros that fight in MMA's fight have at least 1 base in martial art be it taekwando, karate, jiu jitsu or muay thai to name a few.

If you plan to fight in a MMA fight, master at least 1 martial arts, not bits and pieces from each because when you fight someone who have a strong based in one art, you most prolly will lose.

IMO, MMA class should not be for beginners that have no experience in martial art at all, but a sparring class (stand up and ground work) to put in practice what you learned in class, hone your skill, movements, flexibility, tips from your sparring partner and also the instructor.


MuayFit do not have pure Muay Thai class, but more to Muay Thai for fitness, something like body combat.
But if you want to practise MMA, yeah, it's the ideal place as always have fighters dropping in for training there. But whether or not you get to train/spar with the fighters, I don't know.

i went to sparta muay thai yesterday to joint their beginner class, excellent Oooo, although their monthly fees is a bit higher compare to outside, but worth it yo

try muayfit n compare
i hv membership both muayfit and sparta TMT

RM200 is cheap compared to other Muay Thai gym out there.
Unlimited Muay Thai class (depending on your level) , Muay Thai cardio and also their Fitz class..
And your trainers for Muay Thai is Krus from Thailand that have been training th art from when they are around 5-6 years old and also holds several titles in their fighting career...

What i know from surveying around is other Muay Thai gym's fees is at least > than 280++ and have only like 3 or 4 classes per week.

Membership at both gyms? really?
where do you train at now?

some muathai gyms are below 100/mnths n hv their own advantages
like muayfit u can get as 88/mths, class evryday n hv their pro. fight team u can train with them

i train at both

It depends I guess, on ones preference. Whether to train from ground 0 up or to train with pros that drop by the gym and get tips here and there.

Now I'm curious as to who you are. Imma gonna ask my friend to do some investigating...

pls dont beat me ok

TS like I told u in /k/, few weeks ago got this dude complaining about MF and would not recommend it. I'm not sure how true but seeing some comments here I think ya la, probably its not the muay thai people expect. Is it true the class supposed to be 1hr but sometimes they made it only 30mins?

30 mins ftw? i join the sunday class for 3 hrs, 11am-2pm
MF is muaythai fitness/cardio, u dont expect them to train u to fight in d ring, if one want to fight he must join ghetto/hardcore gym

If my friend's not wrong, I know who you are.

Sunday class, 3 hours, I used to do that too...

where? sparta or muayfit

wah..both eh...you have both on purpose or how?

Added on March 28, 2012, 6:55 pmyea, what happened to tht post?

---

Added on March 28, 2012, 6:59 pmi think those taking MMAs not the real martial arts enthusiasts. just my 2 cents. if you really love the art, you will dedicate your time, passion and discipline into it rather than learning bits and pieces of it and trying to get into a cage and fight and then calling yourself a fighter.



This post has been edited by kikopi: Mar 28 2012, 06:59 PM

hey u know.. many muaythai-er gym-hopping nowadays, but still hv contract in old gym
so y not

haha...true dat

howd u like training in sparta?

i twisted my ankle last week so cannot train...

u coming this saturday?

this friday mybe, saturday i go to normal gym, weight training
hopefully sparta can add weight training eqpmnt there, can save money

Muay Thai

MF.
Eh, but my friend say you don't have membership at sparta lo....

ditto... my thoughts exactly...


i think kikopi meant coming for the spartans Beatdown this saturday evening, not training...

yeap, i think for example, if u really want to learn BJJ, might as well learn it from a proper sifu. learning a martial art is not just about whacking,kicking..its about learning and appreciating the discipline in it as well. besides, not all practitioners/fighters make great teachers.

my friend who joined muayfit said he regretted signing up for 2 years (just cause its cheap) as despite the impressive fighters that they have, you dont really train with them and there is no consistent trainer. well, my friend is 'poyo' in that sense la, he thinks by doing MMA he calls himself a fighter..hahah

yeap, i meant for beatdown, are you guys going?

i hv membership, its monthly mbship n havent decide to renew it nxt month
spartans Beatdown is any real fighter or just amateur fight? i save 20 bucks for mfc5

well, if you're a member then you should know what spartan beatdown is...
the admin did like outline it in the spartan "group"...

pfffuuuuuuuu...

exactly, one of the reason i stop my MT there because of no consistent trainer. you do not know who will be teaching until the class starts, sometime trainer's late. worse was when they put "pro" fighters to teach. really no comment n this one.
if you keep on having different trainers, how do you measure your progress? and every trainer have their own way and style of teaching, you'll have to adapt to their pace every time there's new trainer.

I think MF pro fighters are overrated. Its all about marketing. a) white guy, b) winner of some unpopular tournament, c) had a few amateur fights. Everytime I hear a name I will look them up in wikipedia or sherdog and go meh. But not trying to say anything negative about them, at least they are doing what they enjoy.

Everytime pad work with Tanwa sure die... can survive 1 round is good, 2 rounds is YAY!, 3 rounds is WOOOOHOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Gotta love the Thai English...

only 1 or 2 white guy, they are among the best in Asia, but most of them below 10 pro fight
one fc n dare fc is big tournament in asia

Woah, Kai Chee and Major Overall got creamed last night...
Kai Chee's was like over in not even 1 minute....

haha.. eddie ng is a monster

so, does MuayFit train people to fight in the ring, or just fitness cardio ala Aerokickboxing?

wanna start trainin for mma fights, is muayfit a good place 2 train seriously?
any mma fighters here can advice a lil on how n where do i get a start?

Guys, i planning to join Muay Thai. Seriously thought of it for years but no time for it... now i have it
I come across with this Impact Muay Thai @ Taman Desa, trainer call Dannis.

Any advice?

Reason i choose this because of location is near my office so i can do my learning after work.

If it's near your office then go for it! But do go on trial first before you sign up anything.

Hey guys, are there any MMA gyms in cheras?

Thanks for reply, true is near my office and going for try out next week.

I joint the MMA class for trial then signed up for that, kinda regret only after signed up and 1st class in Muay Thai.

Why? Lets say 1 and half hour of class, almost 1 hour to do warm up and exercises, nt exactly what i want, I want to learn something really martial art, no some sort of gyms, I have heavy long punching bag, glove, gyms set at home, so why i go there for gym not technics?

But one thing for sure, I will burn more calories over there than working out at home, just look at the bright side.

Lets hope it will be better in the future.

sometimes you need to let your trainers know what exactly you want to learn. spend some time with them after the class and ask how can you learn more techniques.

Guys, wanted ask.. Say I am into keeping fit (slim down to be exact) is it advisable to go for muay thai?

of course it is! It'll make you sweat a lot and definitely burn a lot of calories.

is hazrul still teaching muaythai there?

I mean like, I am a beginner.. and just wanna try something other than GYM... I sees muay fitness is all about martial arts.. I am like 95kg now.. (overweight).. is it advisable to go directly for muay thai or slim down abit first?

If we're talking about the same Hazrul here, no I don't think so. He's with a new gym now at Sri Hartamas called MuayThai FitnessLab..

hazrul ebab, if im not mistaken. his class is more fun, more muaythai n less cardio.. really miss that time. many trainers left muayfit already.

What else the martial art class in there?

muaythai
boxing
wrestling
MMA
BJJ
krav maga
systema
capoeira
bootcamp

Rare martial art...

3 Two Square PJ. opposite toyota showroom, near digital mall

another branch is at IOI Boulevard Puchong

If you are prepared, my advise is to go for it. Look for a martial arts gym with programmes that can be tailored for weight loss, let the trainers know your need and your fitness goal to slim down. As far as I am aware of, there are many reasons people join martial arts, and it's not just about the art only. Some are for the self defense and some to keep themselves fit.

Added on June 22, 2012, 12:49 pmthey are more into MMA now, think that's why trainers left...

I would say i am beginner and I need to train my body fitness back.. as in stamina and stuff.

Seems like many have misconception about martial art.

It is an art, art takes time, and lots of tedious repetition.

As much as we want the best coach, the coaches are looking for best student. So earn it, stop b****ing about what you want in the class. Just shut up and train.

There are a lot of warm up and cardio during training are because it takes certain flexibility and fitness to perfect this art, else will lead to injury. One bad injury can make you quit the whole program. Just like if you can't master A,B,C... don't expect the teacher will show you the spelling of APPLE.

Look up "after burn effect" in youtube/google, this is why the coaches always push so hard.

I've been to Sparta Muay Thai classes for trial, they have good coaches, and it is very hard to come by good coaches. For those who b**** about it, they just don't see what these great people see, that's all.

May the spirit of martial art be with you all.

MuayFit is a nice gym to go.. very good classes and tedious training..

Why u selling? Regret?

Where is Muayfit gym and Sparta Muay Thai ya?

Am from cyberjaya, which one better location?

the muayfit there r two locations.. one in PJ which is their HQ and bigger facilities... next is puchong just recently opened.. since u in cyberjaya the close one is puchong... quite good place alot of members addy n the staffs are all experienced!! sparta im not too sure.. the thing is there r no better or less better gyms.. all are good its all up to u.. the training is tough but if u can keep at it den ull b no problem.. if ur the type that soft den forget about muay thai or MMA coz its really tough...

Thanks for sharing, am not soft enough, cant consider hard also, average joe here. Just wan to try something different, fun and yet skills that good to equip myself.

Mind to share the exact location of the Muayfit at Puchong plus package price?

Thanks.

Anyone from Dragon Muay Thai here? I've tried calling their number, but no one picking up. Can't even find the place as all along Jalan Alor, every buildings are dodgy enough. Just wanna know their pricings and schedules.

Hi, do you know how much does sparta MT charge for personal training? Do i pay in one shot too like muayfit? Currently i'm taking self defense PT in muayfit, agree that muayfit MT is just for basic and fitness, if want to learn advance MT i still think sparta MT would be a better option.

Added on December 2, 2012, 2:19 pmYou will regret if you choose dragon muay thai, been personal training there with a ajarn, he teach just basic skill and really sucks!!! wasting my money training there. bad experience

This post has been edited by kailchi: Dec 2 2012, 02:19 PM

personal training is one time payment around 60+ per session

Kialchi is right. Don't waste your time with fagon muay Thai in jln Alor. They appear to be a good mt gym because they hosted some seminar for trainers before but other than that, nothing else good to say about them. Trainers are lousy, lazy and non punctual. it's as tho they rent a punching bag to you because that is all you gonna do while waiting for the trainer to do something. Stupid gym.

Muayfit got tons of negative reviews here and they seem to be a bunch of "my gym can kick your gym's butt" people, which is not cool. Although they got real mma fighters, i don't think it's a place to practice mt.

Sparta mt is the best in kl but its expensive. It's also incomparable with tiger mt Phuket as I have trained there a few months. Sparta is just a mini and sad version of tiger. Nonetheless it's still a good place to learn.

A few other mt gyms that I have been to:

Boxxwarriors ampang or kristy mt - lazy trainers. Prepare to kick bags and shadow like a fool. Trainers will sit there and pretend to care about you.

Global elite danau desa - fitness type mt but trainer is really good. He will correct your technique and really pay individual attention to everyone in a group class. But no pad kicking session.

Thanks for the advice bros. I was really keen with Dragon as their gym seems to look ghetto but complete. Hmm, I've heard of CTR313 in Wangsa Delima, Wangsa Maju. Will pay them a visit soon. But seems new and incomplete.

Hi people,

I'm looking for a muay thai gym near in my place, its in Jalan Klang Lama old town road. Hope you guys can help. Thanks

and by the way in muayfit you guys said that the muay thai there is not that good, how about the other arts like boxing, grappling, wrestling etc etc? is it worth it too or all basics??
