FAQ
Most group classes follow a similar format. They are generally either 1.5 or 2 hours. You start with warm-up, stretching and shadow boxing. Then the class is normally split into groups, which will be led by the trainers through several rounds of technique, bag work, pad work, strength and conditioning. The more advanced students might also do some sparring and clinching. The class ends with a warm-down and stretching. For exact hours, please check the gym listings.
Most Muay Thai gyms offer two group classes per day — one in the morning and one in the afternoon — allowing students to train once or twice daily depending on their package. For exact times, check the gym listings.
Muay Thai Private Sessions are one-on-one sessions with an individual trainer and are generally the best way to speed up your progress. They provide you with 100% focused attention, which enables your trainer to identify areas for improvement and work with you to help improve those specific skills. They will generally start with a warm-up, stretching and shadow boxing. The rest of the session is generally up to the trainer depending on what they wish to focus on. They may include technique, bag work, pad work, strength & conditioning, and even might some sparring and clinching for the more advanced students.
There is no set schedule for Muay Thai Private Sessions but they generally are held outside of group classes. Each gym has their own timetable for when private sessions are available. Please refer to the gym listings for more information.
All you need to bring is comfortable training clothes, water, and maybe a towel. All gyms will lend you used equipment such as hand wraps, gloves and shin guards. But if you are going to be training regularly, then we advise everyone to buy their own equipment.
No. Most people who try Muay Thai for the first time have little or no experience, and gyms in Koh Phangan are very welcoming to beginners. Trainers will guide you step-by-step in a supportive environment, with no pressure to be fit or experienced. After your first class, you'll usually realise it's far more friendly, fun, and enjoyable than you expected.
Yes, absolutely. Trainers are used to working with people of all fitness levels. You’ll be encouraged to train at your own pace, and classes will be adapted to suit your ability. Most people are surprised by how quickly their fitness and confidence improve after just a few sessions.
Yes, absolutely. Most people who walk into a Muay Thai gym for the first time feel exactly the same way. In reality, gyms in Koh Phangan are very welcoming, friendly, and supportive environments with people of all ages, fitness levels, and experience. All trainers are used to helping new people feel comfortable from day one. After your first session, you’ll usually realise the atmosphere is far more relaxed and inclusive than you expected.
As with any physical activity, there is always some risk of minor injuries such as muscle soreness or small bumps and bruises. However, with Muay Thai training for beginners, the trainers will encourage you to work at a level that feels comfortable for you. Beginner classes focus on fitness, technique, and learning in a safe and supportive environment, and any sparring is done in a carefully supervised environment.
Gyms are actually clean environments. They scrub and wash the floors after each class, and most disinfect their equipment as well. However, if you are still concerned, then we advise you to purchase your own equipment, such as hand wraps, gloves and shin guards. We sell excellent equipment, so please contact us for our catalogue.
It can sometimes look intense from the outside, but learning Muay Thai is actually very different from what many people expect. Muay Thai is both a sport and a martial art that focuses heavily on discipline, fitness, technique, and self-control. Most beginners spend their time learning basic movements, improving fitness, hitting pads, and building confidence in a safe and supportive environment. You are never expected to fight, and many people train purely for fitness, fun, stress relief, and personal development.
