Stand Up Muay Thai Kickboxing

Eleven out of Five stars. There is always a positive atmosphere in every session and the instructors are incredibly passionate. There is a very strong sense of camaraderie among everyone there. It is about learning a martial art, being able to defend yourself, fighting, and fitness. It is also, surprisingly, about recovery and body maintenance. I found that they not only care about training and improvement but making sure that others are not breaking their bodies doing so. If you are willing to put your head down and learn, you will find skills here that will carry you through your life.

I'm a relative beginner and this is my first martial arts gym but I'm very very happy with Stand Up Muai Thai. The trainers are fun, knowledgeable, patient, and give good one-on-one instruction in each class. They make an extra effort to be welcoming to the new people like myself who don't know the ropes. Classes are a mix of bag work, partners, and conditioning so it is never boring or repetitive.I love the culture of mutual respect and dedication that everyone seems to have.

As someone who is a beginner and never trained in any martial arts before, I have nothing but kind things to say about Stand Up. Kru Williams went above and beyond to make my friend (also a beginner), and I feel welcome and spent the entire first class showing us the ropes. Everyone who attends the classes are really friendly and egos are checked at the door. You'll learn to fight and get a fantastic workout in the process. HIGHLY recommended!

Kru Williams is an inspirational great coach he provides helps his students better themselves on their own and always show character amazing man and great gym.

As a beginner, the trainers here were so accommodating. The pace is just right, people are always friendly, and the classes are small enough that you get a good amount of pointers from the teacher. Highly recommend for anyone looking to learn a martial art or simply work on their fitness. I guarantee you, you will have tons of fun doing so.

This is my first Muay Thai gym I've ever attended and the experience here has helped me become more healthy/fit and knowledgeable about this empowering art. Training here has become my (and my sisters) weekly routine. It always brings me a lot of joy to train with such positive, uplifting, non-discriminating and motivating coaches, mentors and teammates. Super friendly and welcoming no matter what skill level, age, gender, and background. Highly recommend to whoever is interested in learning about Muay Thai, self-defense/control, body maintenance, or just trying something new!

Absolutely wonderful place for a tough training with highly professional staff and great people around. Had an experience in several gyms and Stand Up Muay Thai is definitely my place. Every class is hard work that pays off in the sparring sessions later. Gym has a unique grading system that allows students and staff to track advancement and pair accordingly. Kru is always there to teach, help, encourage and empower. If you're looking for a great place to train - Stand Up Muay Thai is The place to go.

Been attending classes for 6+ years steadily. I have never looked and felt better than I do right now. Everything I was searching for; I found it in Stand Up Muay Thai while practicing the beautiful and fun art of Muay Thai. I came through the door to learn the art and to get in shape and now I'm a competitive fighter throughout BC. Awesome atmosphere with vast knowledge in many forms of martial arts. With consistent attendance I see students get into the best shapes of their lives while attaining the art of Muay Thai which is something you never can forget.

Fantastic place!All of the trainers and staff are very knowledgeable and supportive.There is something for everyone, whether you are a beginner or seasoned fighter. Being a beginner, I found everyone very patient and willing to help me build basic skills.Added bonus, you will get an awesome workout. I thought I was fit before but this is something else :)

Been training here for about 7 months now and I never look back on my decision. The head coach Kru Williams, is a high level muay thai instructor who has traveled the world in the pursuit of his talents. His life-long fight experience and iq resonates through every move he demonstrates. He is a very passionate, attentive, encouraging, and goal driven man, filled with positivity. The best quality I see in Kru is that he sees all his students as equals, knows everyone by name, and puts in the effort to converse with each of his students individually and on a personal level, no matter how busy the class is.The other instructors have adopted the same qualities as Kru but in their own fashion. Each instructor provides their own niche skill set, which adds variety to the training and builds you to be a more well rounded athlete. The instructors all take their roles seriously, and work hard to ensure that each student really gets it before advancing the class to the next level.Don't be discouraged by the size of this gym and it's outdated equipment in comparison to it's competitors. What the gym lacks in astetic appeal is easily overshadowed by the strong minded hearts and souls by both it's members and instructors. Everyone is there to support each other and grow which makes me feel very fortunate to have landed a place in such a great gym.
