From the reviews
If you're ever in Charleston and looking for the real deal, Charleston Muay Thai and Boxing is it. I dropped in for a Saturday Muay Thai class, and I was absolutely blown away.
I was so impressed with this gym the moment I walked in ! Everyone was super friendly and welcoming , members of all shapes and sizes all training together! The coaches are very knowledgable and detailed in teaching the art of Muay Thai and boxing!
I spent a year here getting in great shape while picking up a rock-solid foundation in Muay Thai and Boxing. Coach Jeff Grady is a wealth of knowledge, and his firsthand experience from decades of training and competing in Thailand really shows in his teaching.
I did a drop in class while working in the area. Jeff was great, reaching out to me before arriving inorder to give me an idea of how the classes are ran. The class itself was excellent. Lots of technique and a great workout. Its pretty clear how passionate Jeff is about the sport and helping others.
New to kickboxing? Start at Charleston Muay Thai and Boxing
Charleston Muay Thai and Boxing comes up as a beginner-friendly gym — noted on their own site. If you've never thrown a punch or a kick, that's exactly who a good beginners class is for. A few things worth knowing before your first week. First, you don't need to be fit or coordinated to start — you get in shape by training, not before it, and coaches scale every drill to you. Second, you won't be thrown into hard sparring — reputable gyms build the basics (stance, footwork, and punches and kicks on pads and bags) first, and any contact eases in gradually under a coach's control. Third, all fitness levels really are welcome — ask about a dedicated beginners or fundamentals class time so your first session is alongside others who are also starting out. Most gyms are happy to let you watch or try a class first, so reach out before you commit.
Your first kickboxing class at Charleston Muay Thai and Boxing
Nervous about walking into a kickboxing gym for the first time? Almost everyone is, and good coaches expect beginners to come through the door. Here's what to know. What to expect: a typical first class is a warm-up, then drilling the basics — stance, footwork, and punches and kicks on pads or a heavy bag — not hard sparring. Go at your own pace and rest whenever you need to; no one will bat an eye. What to wear: comfortable athletic clothes you can move and sweat in, and supportive trainers. What to bring: water, and hand wraps and gloves if you have them — many gyms lend loaner gloves for a first class, so it's worth asking when you call. As you keep training you'll add your own gloves and wraps (and shin guards once you start sparring). Sparring is optional and eases in gradually, once your basics are solid. Arrive 10–15 minutes early to sign a waiver and meet the coach. It gets easier fast — most people feel far more at home by their third class.
