What is Muay Thai?

Muay Thai is a martial art that was developed on the battlefields of Thailand during a time of warfare in South East Asia and is practiced now for fitness, self-defense, and combat sports.

Muay Thai has gained a lot of popularity over the years and has come to have some amazing benefits for people of all ages to practice! Our programs are built with the beginner in mind!

“My daughter started training in Dec of 2019 with Coach Ryan and let me say it has been a pleasure. The kindness and patience Ryan has shown my daughter and I has been great. We have definitely felt welcomed by Ryan and his class. He’s never short on the effort he puts into the class. Always stressing the importance of core fundamentals and technique. But at the same time keeping it fun and fresh. I strongly recommend to anyone who is interested in a fun but yet challenging way of fitness, to give Puu Muay Thai Santa Barbara a shot.”

Anthony Sarabia, Parent

I have been training at Pu’u Muay Thai for about two months and I’m loving it. My background in martial arts was strictly taekwondo, and I wanted to build on that and try something new. This has been a wonderful experience so far! The coaches are top-tier, the community is really nice, the energy is great, and I’m learning a whole lot. Plus I’m getting in even better shape and feeling much more confident in my combat skills! Thanks PMT!

Marissa Koch, Student

“My daughter was completely new to Muay Thai and sports in general, so she was a little timid at first to try something new, but the coaches knew exactly how to make her feel comfortable and break out of her shell. Now she can’t stop talking about how excited she is for the next Muay Thai session!”

Morgan Van Hook, Parent

“Wish I joined sooner! Pu'u Muay Thai is great for beginners. The Coaches have a great way of relaying information on how to improve and everyone there including the other students are super chill. The morning classes are the perfect way to start the day 🙌”

Drew Dorman, Adult Student

“Not only did I love going to the classes and getting better at Muay Thai but I loved the people and the supportive environment. Everyone is encouraging and Coach Ryan spends time with each individual while juggling the class. It's been great to challenge myself with learning something new while hanging out with amazing people. Great stress reliever while having fun!”

Ajia Orozco, Adult Student

This gym is truly incredible. The instructors (Kru) are dedicated to the art and teachings of Muay Thai. They have a sharp focus on the fundamentals, which is immediately evident when you watch the form of everyone from their youngest practitioners, to the oldest. All the students are just as friendly, and genuinely willing to help you learn and improve. I highly recommend this gym to anyone who wants to learn a new skill, get in shape, or if you are an experienced Muay Thai practitioner. There is something here for all.
