Best Muay Thai is great, I love training there! I would definitely recommend it, especially if you are into learning how to fight competitively rather than just do it to stay in shape. They have great instructors that will teach you as much as you wanna know as long as you put in the hard work. I trained at another gym for four months and i didnt like it nearly as much as i like Best Muay Thai for 3 reasons. 1.The instructors are much better at Best Muay Thai. They help you learn whatever you need to know. They learn your names and you actually have a relationship with them instead of just seeing you as another paycheck in their pockets. I had to bother my instructors at my other gym to teach me anything! (with the exception of a few). 2.They are a competitive gym and if you take your training seriously you will learn how to fight well. I had to break so many bad habits that i picked up at my other gym and now, i honestly feel like i know what im doing when im sparring. 3.They are very traditional and i like that. You have to earn your thai shorts; you have to bow to your instructor; and the style they teach is very traditional. Overall, great place to train whether it is just to have fun learning how to do it or to do it for sport.

Best Muay Thai is a great place to learn Muay Thai and a great place for fitness in general. Master Bob and Sunshine are top level instructors who know their stuff and take the time to show you correct technique and help you understand the "why" behind your stance, placement, etc. I have never been unsatisfied with their explanations or demonstrations of movement or technique. They teach beginner, intermediate, advanced, and competitive level Muay Thai, as well as Fight Fit (circuit training), and now BoxFit and a dedicated Boxing class taught by Sunshine. I have attended all of the Muay Thai classes and Fight Fit and they are all great. I am so much more in shape than when I started and Master Bob, Sunshine and Nick have helped me so much with that!! The other thing I really love about Best Muay Thai is that it really is like a gym family - we are all friends and are there to have fun and learn from each other. I highly recommend this gym for anyone looking for general fitness (in the form of circuit training - Fight Fit/BoxFit) or Boxing or Muay Thai instruction - it cant be beat!

Ive been to a few gyms in the valley, and this is by far the best gym Ive been to. The facilities are great, the instruction is top notch, and the atmosphere is fantastic. This gym works hard and produces some great fighters, but everyone is down to earth and friendly. The coaching staff is what sets this gym apart from all others. Nick does a great job teaching the beginner class. He teaches the fundamental techniques in a way that is easy to learn and will benefit you throughout your career. Sunshine and Bob coach the main Thai classes, and do an outstanding job. They not only teach you how to do a technique, but why you are doing it that way. Sunshine also coaches an excellent boxing class, and will improve your hands no matter what skill level you are at. If you have any interest at all in Muay Thai or Boxing you owe it to yourself to check out Best Muay Thai. No matter if you have never laced up a glove before, or if you are an amateur or professional fighter, you will improve on your skills at Best Muay Thai.

About two years ago I started training Muay Thai. At the time I considered my to be pretty fit. I lift 5 days a week and did cardio at least 3 days a week. When I started training with Sunshine (one of the owners of the gym who is a highly decorated Muay Thai fighter and 3 time world boxing champion), I learned I was not in the kind of shape I wanted to be in. I love this place and the way they teach Muay Thai. In the past two years I have watched my body transform in to something I never though possible. I have studied several other martial arts in my life but this is by far the best place I have ever had the honor of training. If you want to learn how to kick people in the neck or if you just want to get in great shape like me, check out the good folks at Best Muay Thai.

I started off at Best Muay Thai about 3 months ago having no prior boxing or martial arts experience. Everyone at the gym is extremely welcoming and supportive as you develop your skills. While you are in the beginner muay thai class all the necessary pads and gloves are provided so that you dont have to invest a ton of money to get started in the sport. If youre not necessarily interested in just muay thai training the gym has a variety of great classes you can take to get in shape similar to a cross-fit type workout. Great training and great people, I highly recommend trying out Best Muay Thai!

I love training at Best Muay Thai and highly recommend it to anyone. Whether youre interested in training for an acutal bout or just getting a great workout, the trainers at Best are fantastic. It doesnt matter if youre a seasoned professional or have never done any fight training whatsoever, Nick, Sunshine, and Master Bob are patient and kind, taking time to make sure you understand everything. I have also had private lessons and attended the FightFit classes, both of which are really fun and informative, not to mention a fast track to whipping into shape!

Highly recommended! I have trained at several gyms all over the valley over the past decade or so and I can honestly say that all of them dont compare to PCA muay thai. The attention and training you receive are second to none. Sunshine has been in the sport for a very long time and is extremely passionate about it, which makes your training sessions very involved and precise. And while your skills and overall health are being improved the family type atmosphere will make you feel right at home. Love this place:)

If you are looking for a great gym to learn Muay Thai, brush up on your skills or train and compete, I would definitely recommend stopping by and talking to Sunshine. You can try out a class for free without any pressure and all classes are divided by skill levels. Its hard work Im not going to lie, but what you will receive in return is worth it. I am glad to go there and to train there and would highly recommend it to anyone looking.

If you want to be the best and train with the best ~ Best Muay Thai is where you need to be. Housing the ONLY 2 Muay Thai PROS in Arizona coached by legends Bob Karmel and Sunshine Fettkether. A true powerhouse of the strict traditional art of eight limbs. Come in and see for yourself. One free class and youll be addicted. Its a great workout, great sport and a great Muay Thai family to be a part of.

Best Combat Sport experience Ive ever had. This is real Muay Thai taught by professional fighters. Thanks Damien, Sunshine and Bob for putting such an amazing program together. Dont worry about getting knocked around if thats not what you are into. Lots of people are there just for fun and exercise and what is probably the most effective self defense system on the planet.
