From the reviews
I am a 53 years old male. I started at Tama about a year ago to get in better shape. I can say without a doubt it was one of the best decisions I made.i am in the best shape i have been in 20years. Master T and all of the instructions are world class . They break down all of the techniques so well.
So glad I tried out the Muay Thai classes! Trying to get back into shape and martial arts in general after a long hiatus and everyone was very supportive. The coaches are experts in their knowledge and very experienced teachers. In the time I attended I feel like I’ve already learned new skills and upped my game.
I just started Muay Thai at Tama a few months ago and I have already learned so much. I leave every classes with more skills and knowledge. The instructors do a wonderful job at group teaching while also providing individual feedback. It’s a great way to stay in shape and learn.
If I could give TAMA, Dayton Muay Thai 6 stars I would. I’ve done martial arts most my life. I joined about 6 months ago ready for something new and Muay Thai was not on my radar at that time. They suggested with my background this would compliment it very well. They did not guide me wrong, best decision I could make.
New to kickboxing? Start at Dayton Muay Thai
Dayton Muay Thai 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 Dayton Muay Thai
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.
