This is the place for Muay Thai in Newcastle City area. Mixed abilities and backgrounds but a theme of respect which rings true of any Nak Muay. If your life is missing something or even taking a direction you're not sure you like....turn up, train and have your whole life transformed. Don't be late to training sessions and do not wear shoes on the mats...if you do, expect a fat batch of burpees. Will drop in again soon! Ooooooooo weeeeeeee.

My son wanted to take up boxing and he's really gotten into it here. It has been great watching him get stuck in and develop.

The best mixed martial arts gym in the northeast of England by far. With World , European and British titles under their roof. You know you’re in good hands. What Craig has achieved with the gym is phenomenal.
