Manchester UK Gym's

Hey,

Just wondering if anyone has any experience with the Gym's located in Manchester center, UK.

There are a few dotted around but I don't want to be taught something that isn't Thai boxing but claims to be.

Any opinions or reviews etc welcome.

Thanks in advance

 

It's a Mecca for Thai boxing
Which part of Manchester?

 

I'm currently residing in the Northern Quarter, right in the city itself

 

Probably rules out my first choice in Bury then

 

You by master A's?

http://www.masteramuaythai.co.uk/

 

I am indeed, this place reputable?

 

He's one of the three that established Thai Boxing in the Uk

 

cool, i'll have to check him out, thanks!

 

He teaches skiing too according to his bio on the the website. Is it all under one roof?

 

Master a is ok but certainly not a leader of today's uk Muay Thai. Not even sure he has any guys in the uk rankings at all?

Gfc Muay Thai is probably the best in Manchester , head coach Darren Phillips is a well respected ref and judge on world class fights, he knows how it's done.

 

It's in bury though which was my first idea? Master A is round the corner?

Their Muay Thai classes are mostly based in Stockport taught by Panicos Yusuf when he's not fighting.

 

I think Gfc is in bury

 

It is, great gym that hold regular interclubs that are about as fair as you're likely to find. Wherever he trains he'll probably end up there fighting eventually

 

Just thought id drop by and say thanks for the suggestions!

Currently considering Master A's or a place called Evolve Manchester

 

Try them both and see which fits better? Unless you plan on making a name for yourself in the sport then just find a club that feels right for you

 

Evolve has recently moved, there fb profile has the new address.

SBG mainline also has thai classes, but is more geared towards MMA so may not be what your looking for.

 

Depending on if you want to travel for decent training, there's a place called Supergym in Knutsford who offer great training. Currently have 5 ranked fighters in only a few years or something like that.....it's only about 20 mins from Manchester to

 

Fighting Fit has Muay Thai classes every Monday, Wednesday and Friday.

The MT classes have a former British and current Euro champion.

My wife trains there for BJJ and judo, so I've seen the classes first-hand. They're legit.

Speaking of BJJ and judo, there's a couple of world and European medalist instructors teaching BJJ and the head judo coach is a 2x Olympian. Worth checking out if you're close by, it's a 5-minute walk from the Arndale.
