  1. Hello, I have been to Lamnamoons for two brief stints in two years. I really cannot say enough good things, I almost recommend you go to a sub par camp first to really appreciate what you are getting here. If you're asking about the camp, most likely you already know about his accolades. Know that he also produced both homegrown fighters right out of the community in Ubon including his prize pupil TV7 champion Robert Lamnamoon, as well as taken foreigners to higher heights like Sean Kerney. His English is very good and both he and his trainers have experience teaching abroad in places like Singapore and Australia. So this is not just a gym with a marquee name fighter and and more transients than an airport terminal. Lamnmoon built it, and they have come... Like most respectable camps, training is about your usual Thailand camp standard affair (run, rope, bag, pads, clinch till trainers think you've had enough, conditioning x2 a day, 6 days a week). They'll make adjustments for your fitness level but try to come in shape so as to maximize your time there. Lamnamoon's training team consist of himself and his longtime stablemates/buddies he has grown up with. They are very procedural in their approach and will pick up on where you need work and make small adjustments to help you improve. He has a small amount of rooms available at his house if you need accommodation (your morning run will be the 10km jog from his house to the gym), you can also stay at some apartments near the gym, but you'll be missing out on some of the best Thai food prepped by his wife/ the wife of one of the other trainers ( ok ok sometimes if he's busy his assistant trainers will go to their spots and buy food, but it's REALLY GOOD just the same.) If you are looking to just learn I have seen both Thais and study abroad come in for drop ins, if you are looking to fight he has connections for whatever level you are at, even debuting fighters, let him know and obviously show up. Overall Lamnamoon has really made it easy for foreigners to ease into the nitty gritty that is Issan. On a personal note I've never met a team of trainers who gave that much of a ish as they do here. They are not just associates, they are family, you will feel it when you come. The single drawback that I can think of is Ubon is somewhat of suburb, so if you're looking to get plastered and party it up on your downtime you're out of luck, but if you know why people come here, this really isn't a drawback. Any specific questions about logistics or anything I will be happy to answer. I'm a total fanboy of his operation.
