From the reviews
I was coach davids first student about 2 and a half years ago when we had a small gym and not many members. The growth ive had technically and physically has been amazing. Ive learned more than i ever could through his classes. I was comfortable and confident from the beginning and love the sense of family.
I’ve been going for a few months now and my progress has been exponentially increasing! This is my first time doing this and I feel very confident about my abilities in a short time. There is a great sense of belonging and family within the gym and you’re able to learn at your own pace.
My son has been going to DS Muay Thai squad since September. David and his team are amazing! They are so supportive of the kids. David makes the kids feel so confident. My son has changed in such positive ways learning the Muay Thai way of life. I can’t recommend his kids classes enough!
David is a very talented coach. He maintains a very strong connection with the children, and in return, the children learn discipline and respect for one another. I’m very grateful to have found this school.
New to kickboxing? Start at DS Muay Thai Squad inc
DS Muay Thai Squad inc 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 DS Muay Thai Squad inc
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.
