I wanted to try Muay Thai while we’re staying in Chiang Mai for a vacation and very fortunate enough to have a friend living there who gave the opportunity for the experience to happen in Core Combat. The gym has an impressive facility and friendly staff! I’m also happy that their coaches are very approachable and knowlegeable. Coach Tong was really good in explaining and demonstrating the moves of the martial art while Coach Mob gladly assisted me with the proper stance of Muay Thai. I also enjoyed a sparring session with Coach Earl who really made it challenging but very fun! Core Combat does not only provide physical benefits but also instill valuable life skills to their clients❤️ All in all, I recommend Core Combat for people who want to try and learn martial arts. Great community! Fun experience! Hope to be back soon❤️
Much cleaner and nicer learning environment than most strictly Muay Thai gyms. Approach, in my opinion is better, but more western kickboxing oriented. Higher focus on technique and better opportunities to pick up new things. Welcoming coaches who know their stuff. Would absolutely come back if I was in Chiang Mai over any kind of traditional Muay Thai gym, mainly due to the much better price and hygiene ( As I previously caught a nasty eye infection in one of them , after which I couldn’t open my right eye for 3 days).
Amazing place. We did a couple workout together with the trainer Mob. He was amazing. A really good man. He gave us a workout patiently and stayed to train with us even after the workout. We laughed and had fun with him and the director of the institute. My wife had no background in the field and she really enjoyed it. Very good people and an amazing atmosphere. Highly recommend. The trainer is very professional and kind. He explains patiently. An experience that is a must in Chiang Mai.
