I pay: $115.00/month (CAD) - no contract - For unlimited kickboxing classes. I've been very lucky with this price, as far as I know, they go around $150+tax CAD in other gyms. And sometimes, you may have to be in a contract and can cost a hefty fee if you break it. My instructor/coaches are really awesome when it comes to flexibility and suspending the account if they haven't seen your body in many weeks; like if i'm sick/injured or lazy lol. And when I come back, they will happily re-initiate the payment again.

Thats not bad, im not too sure if my gym has a contract i pay the walk in which is $20 the monthly i think is $180 which i cant afford/justify yet coz some weeks im pretty busy so i might not make it. Not sure if theres a contract etc.. my first gym charge $30 for a walk in glad i switched because my current ones vibe is just way better and have better coaches smaller class sizes..

Paying around $150 a month for unlimited muay thai sessions, no lock-in contracts or joining fees and you have the ability to pause payments if you're going to be away. There are 7 MT sessions available in a week, made up of a mix of morning, weekend but mostly evening training. Majority of sessions 1.5 hours long so probably works out to be around $10 a session for me. I'm sure there are cheaper options available but the timetable flexibility, longer sessions and location work best for me.

I live in Los Angeles and my local gym is $120 a month but unlimited training.  We actually don't have classes at all.  You just come in when you can and do your warmups. shadowbox, then get on the bag.  Then one of the trainers will come grab and do padwork with you.  If you're up for it after you can always spar or do drills with whoever is at the gym at moment.

Its called The Yard http://theyardmuaythai.com/. It's very unstructured training so you have to push yourself hard if you want to get trained properly.  If you're there not really taking it seriously you won't get much attention from the coaches.

I train in Mtl. It's a boxing first and Muay Thai after gym. But we're top 3 in terms of local fighters in Mtl. There is only 4 classes a week of Muay Thai but I can go train on my own whenever I want. 

I pay 700$ a year. 

Gym's in Mtl are between 60$ to 120$ a month if you pay up-front for a year. But I would say there is only 4 decent gym's in Mtl.

I'm from Australia and I pay $75 a month which is a pretty good price because we get unlimited access to a gym/classes/sauna.

I work in a gym so if you're unstable with life/location/job then don't get stuck in a contract membership

Download free passes so you can try the gym before joining

 

I never really cared how much I'd pay as I was really happy with the team I was training with and I knew my money was going towards something good for me.

 

Goodluck!

    • Hi Warren  It was very quiet when I was there. A few local guys and 2-4 foreigners but that can change and I'm sure this gym has got more popular. You can schedule privates for whenever you want. The attention to detail here is unbelievable and I highly recommend you train at this gym. In my experience, everyone was really good training partners and I learnt loads everyday.

    • You can look through my various articles which sometimes focuses on this: https://8limbsus.com/muay-thai-forum/forum/23-kevins-corner-muay-thai-philosophy-ethics/ especially the article on Muay Thai as a Rite. The general thought is that Thailand's traditional Muay Thai offers the world an important understanding of self-control in an era which is increasingly oriented towards abject violence for entertainment. There are also arguments which connect Muay Thai to environmental concerns.

    • Hi, this might be out of the normal topic, but I thought you all might be interested in a book-- Children of the Neon Bamboo-- that has a really cool Martial Arts instructor character who set up an early Muy Thai gym south of Miami in the 1980s. He's a really cool character who drives the plot, and there historically accurate allusions to 1980s martial arts culture. However, the main thrust is more about nostalgia and friendships.    Can we do links? Childrenoftheneonbamboo.com Children of the Neon Bamboo: B.

    • Davince Resolve is a great place to start. 
    • I see that this thread is from three years ago, and I hope your journey with Muay Thai and mental health has evolved positively during this time. It's fascinating to revisit these discussions and reflect on how our understanding of such topics can grow. The connection between training and mental health is intricate, as you've pointed out. Finding the right balance between pushing yourself and self-care is a continuous learning process. If you've been exploring various avenues for managing mood-related issues over these years, you might want to revisit the topic of mental health resources. One such resource is The UK Medical Cannabis Card, which can provide insights into alternative treatments.
    • Phetjeeja fought Anissa Meksen for a ONE FC interim atomweight kickboxing title 12/22/2023. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Cu92S6-V5y0&ab_channel=ONEChampionship Fight starts at 45:08 Phetjeeja won on points. Not being able to clinch really handicapped her. I was afraid the ref was going to start deducting points for clinch fouls.   
    • Earlier this year I wrote a couple of sociology essays that dealt directly with Muay Thai, drawing on Sylvie's journalism and discussions on the podcast to do so. I thought I'd put them up here in case they were of any interest, rather than locking them away with the intention to perfectly rewrite them 'some day'. There's not really many novel insights of my own, rather it's more just pulling together existing literature with some of the von Duuglus-Ittu's work, which I think is criminally underutilised in academic discussions of MT. The first, 'Some meanings of muay' was written for an ideology/sosciology of knowledge paper, and is an overly long, somewhat grindy attempt to give a combined historical, institutional, and situated study of major cultural meanings of Muay Thai as a form of strength. The second paper, 'the fighter's heart' was written for a qualitative analysis course, and makes extensive use of interviews and podcast discussions to talk about some ways in which the gendered/sexed body is described/deployed within Muay Thai. There's plenty of issues with both, and they're not what I'd write today, and I'm learning to realise that's fine! some meanings of muay.docx The fighter's heart.docx
