NMA - Nguyen Martial Arts

Jay is an amazing trainer. He’s patient, positive and passionate with what he does. He pushes and encourages you but makes sure he knows what your limit is and will work around it, help you improve and still challenge you. I always look forward to each weeks class. Excited for more training sessions at the new gym!

This gym is new. I am sure they have great potential. Jay is the owner and is one of the instructors. My son and his friends are attending their classes. The kids absolutely enjoy their workouts here with Jay's teaching and instructions. It is located in a very convenient area of Richmond.

Coach Jay is a phenomenal trainer, as well as an outstanding person/mentor. I've trained Muay Thai with him (group classes and privates) for over 2 years and Jay helped prepare me with all the necessary skills and mindset to improve my skills in this sport, but also equipped me to go into my Muay Thai fight feeling confident.I've trained at several gyms throughout my 5 years in this sport, but I can definitely say that Coach Jay has been one of the most welcoming and friendly people you could possibly ever meet within this sport. Whether you are a seasoned professional or a complete beginner to the sport, Jay will treat you all the same - warm and encouraging.One of the things that you could appreciate when training with Coach Jay is that he has been involved in competition for several years and is still an active competitor. Despite all this, I never sense an ounce of ego from him - you can be confident that you are getting one of the top training you could find in the lower Mainland by training with him!

trained with jay before so i'm excited to see that he's opened a new gym space! his training sessions consist of cardio, bag work and technical practices. i appreciate that jay will check in to see what each person wants to improve on -he's very patient and adjusts to everyone's skill level.

Great faculty, including: large boxing ring, bags, bay door, and bathroom with a shower. Classes are welcoming and enjoyable. The kru is knowledgeable and has lots of fight and coaching experience. 10/10 would recommend for beginners to pros of all ages.

I had such a great training session here! The trainer was so knowledgeable and had competed a lot in Muay Thai. He made the training really fun and engaging too. I would 100% recommend.

Just started training with Jay, and the sessions are great. He has lots of knowledge, very patient and pushes you. Learned a lot from only my first few times going!

My friend and I have been training with Jay for over a year. He is mobile and comes to us with his gear. I've had a few trainers over the years and Jay is one of the best! He has an amazing attitude: always positive, encouraging, practical with this advice, and extremely disciplined without being intimidating. Also, it's important to me that my trainer isn't bored or simply treating his classes like a business, which can sometimes happen (understandably) as Vancouver is a tough place and people get burnt-out. Thank you Jay, for always being present, focused, and inspiring. You clearly love teaching and you're super good at it. :)

Richmond just got lucky! Having taken a few classes, I can already see the great work here. Jay teaches his classes at the right pace to help me achieve my goals. Constantly checking in and providing tips, unlike some other martial art gyms.Experienced or beginners, if you want to learn Muay Thai, this is the place to go!

Dropped in for a class and met Jay the owner and coach at NMA. Jay has great energy and a positive attitude towards the training he provides. Had a fun time and excited to see this gym grow!
