SKN Muay Thai Academy

Fantastic people and place! Been going to SKN since last October and I love it. Marissa and Chris and the rest of the coaches are super kind, but will work you hard (in a great way)! Lots of reverence for Muay Thai traditions, but feels super Pittsburgh, too. Get involved! You won't regret it.

I have never loved a gym or a sport as much as I love SKN and Muy Thai! The coaches are great, the classes are fun and tough, and I never felt looked down upon for being new to the sport. Coming here helps me physically, mentally, and emotionally.

As a beginner I was extremely nervous starting out and not knowing the movements or much about Muay Thai. Marissa was beyond kind and truly walked me through the basics on day one. She made me feel welcomed and seem excited to share her knowledge. The other coaches I've been able to interact with are kind, welcoming, and really create a relaxed learning environment (but hard working!) If you're just starting out or someone who has experience this is the place you want to be.

While searching for a good place for Muay Thai in Pittsburgh I stumbled on skn and so happy I did! All of the staff is very friendly and welcoming, whether you are a beginner or experienced they accommodate everyone nicely. I had a little training previously but had a few years break and after a few weeks at skn it already feels like home. The gym is spacious and is always very clean. Equipment is all in excellent shape, bags of all shapes and sizes. If you’re debating if you should try it, you should. My first week was $30 for unlimited classes and they give you free gloves and hand wraps. After that I joined for unlimited classes @ $99 a month which is an awesome deal considering I go an average of 5 days a week.

I've tried several different martial gyms in the area, and the decision to go with SKN was very easy for me. The staff and other members are super friendly. The schedule offers plenty of classes, and the level of instruction is really good. Whether you're training to compete and bring home the belt or just want a fun workout SKN will give you the instruction and motivation for you to thrive
