Sityodtong USA (Los Angeles)

I started training with Kru Walter since 1999. Being part Thai, I really appreciate the dedication of Kru Walt, and the rest of the staff on doing their absolute best in keeping up with Thai/Muay Thai traditions in America. Personally, I just couldn't be training anywhere that didn't honor or respect a culture they are passing parts of to other people. I just see it as theft at that point. Although awesome, there's more to my culture than the combative parts to it. Sityodtong LA branch was founded in 2003, and there's obviously a reason why it just had its 20 year anniversary. The training, culture, staff and community sells itself! Kru Walt has dedicated his entire life, blood, sweat and tears for Muay Thai and always makes an effort to bring our team to the home camp in Thailand and experience Thailand firsthand. That's not just it either. The Jiu Jitsu program is awesome as well. Coach Fernando is an amazing instructor and has dedicated his entire being to the art and culture. Together, he, Kru Walt and all the other coaches develop amazing champions. It really all depends on what your goals are. If you wanna fight, they got you covered. If you wanna be more fit, they got you covered. If you wanna be a little better out there on the street, they got you covered! And to be fair, you don't gotta be a fighter to train like one. And at the end of the day, it's family. Coach June has a long history in martial arts and is amazing with the kids. I've seen kids change for the better with her. The kids become more stronger both mentally and physically. Coach June's other classes that she teaches will also give you a good challenge and bring out the best in you. This training facility has a resume unmatched. You can always ask for a free trial and experience for yourself everything I mentioned. For newcomers, especially those that aren't currently physically active, or haven't been for a while, yes you will be sore in ways you might have never been before. Don't let it get to your head. This generally last a few weeks. You'll start noticing your body becoming more used to this type of training. Just keep with it and believe in yourself. Shoutout! Kru Walt, Coach June, Coach Fernando, Coach Wilson, Coach Lynn, Coach Chris, Coach Manny, Coach Mike's 1&2. Past and current champs. Collectively, you are all what makes this place great.

There billing system is ridiculous they use a 3rd party company which makes no sense. During Covid I missed 2 months due to being ill they still wanted to charge me for the missing months. I showed up to the gym to make the 2 payments so I could continue training. The guy at the desk told me I would need to contact the billing company which was confusing. A year later I though I would give them another chance and write it off as a miscommunication. I called and told them I would pay cash payment for a full year as I didn’t want to deal with billing company. They gave me the same answer as last time contact billing company. The training here is average as a business it’s horrible your customers don’t owe you anything lose the ego.

This is the #1 gym in California to train Muay Thai from a champion thai boxer who has lived & trained in Thailand. Kru Walter has Muay Thai & Boxing training
