Where to train

Training Muay Thai in Bangkok

Where the professional Thai fight scene actually lives, alongside Rajadamnern and Lumpinee stadiums. Gyms are city gyms rather than resort camps, so on-site accommodation is rarer and you commute. Best fit if you want authentic stadium-adjacent training and city life over a training holiday.

Camps in Bangkok

Sitsongpeenong

Bangkok / Mid-size camp

A Bangkok gym with a real stable of professional Thai fighters rather than a foreigner-first operation. Training alongside working pros is the draw. Expect to be the weakest person in the room for a while, which is the point.

Khongsittha Muay Thai

Bangkok / Mid-size camp

Bangkok gym that manages to be well set up for visiting foreigners while keeping a serious Thai training culture. One of the more approachable ways into the Bangkok scene if the rural camps feel like too much.

Yokkao Training Center

Bangkok / Mid-size camp

Petchyindee Academy

Bangkok / Mid-size camp

Attached to one of the most significant promoters and stables in Thai Muay Thai. The pedigree is the reason to go. Not designed as a soft landing for a first-time trainee.
