Fantastic experience: I have been regularly training at MTC for 2 years now, and I had initially joined with zero experience or knowledge about the art. The coaches are very knowledgeable and approachable, and they always cater to different individuals. The gym has a close-community vibe and it's a very engaging and fun place to train. I'd recommend it to anyone who is interested in martial arts.

jesse teape 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Great gym with great trainers that will help you reach whatever goals you have. I’ve been training at MTC for roughly 18 months it was a little intimidating at first but it didn’t take long for that to go away with how friendly and supportive everyone is.

Scott Kennedy 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: An awesome place to learn Muay Thai. Coaches are knowledgeable, experienced and very willing to help, no matter your goals. Variety of classes, like the general Muay Thai class, boxing, clinch work or strength and conditioning will give people of all levels a good insight to the sport. MTC has very welcoming, tight knit group of people of all backgrounds training and supporting each other. Cannot recommend MTC enough to anyone that is either looking to improve their fitness or have aspirations of stepping into the ring.

Leila Figueiredo 4 years ago

Fantastic experience: By far the best gym I've ever been. It can be intimidating at first, but as soon as class starts you will be ~forced~ to interact with others and introduce yourself, since the warm up is all done with games (such as the "pizza" game, when dozens of adults become giggly 5 years old). While the process of finding a partner to hold pads for you is nerve-wrecking everywhere, at MTC more experienced people will usually offer to team up with newcomers, making things a lot easier. The whole atmosphere is very friendly and fun: you will definitely hear the Kru's laugh all through class! Tips for anxious people: Go to your first class with a friend, so you already have someone to pratice with.

Lena Matthews 5 years ago

Positive experience: Good gym, coach friendly and the people are enthusiastic. Feel like the cleanliness is lacking, left the mats with black soles. Otherwise, can not fault.

Hi Lena,The mats we use are black and sometimes the moving around causes them to rub onto peoples feet. No shoes are worn on the mats at anytime. As you would know form being there our equipment is disinfected after each use. I can assure you our mats are moped and disinfected before each General Class. We do take our cleaning very seriously

Fantastic experience: If you're looking for a place to train Muay Thai in Christchurch, this is the place to be. And for more reasons than I can possibly list here. - Proper Muay Thai. Elbows, knees, clinches, lots of focus on form and technique, not just a boxercise class. - Coaches who really know their stuff, whether you're just a beginner learning the ropes or a fighter preparing for battle. - Great, friendly atmosphere. Plenty of young and old and boys and girls training. - No pressure to spar or fight. - Many people end up sparring because it's controlled and fun. The coaches keep a close eye, the advanced guys know how to keep their ego in check, no one ends up with unnecessary brain damage. Long story short, everyone's there to have fun and get better. Not to judge or hurt or embarrass anyone. It's a great little fun gym that teaches real Muay Thai and does it well.

Sam Frost 7 years ago

Fantastic experience: Best Muay Thai gym in town, no questions. Dave (head coach) knows his stuff and it's a friendly, welcoming place. Highly recommended.
