Reviews of Muay Thai Niagara MMA (Gym)

Nikita Radaev

I just had my sons 7th birthday party there. They exceeded my expectations. This was by far the most organized birthday party and all the kids had a blast! The staff were excellent with the kids, made sure everyone was included, being respectful, safe and having fun!

We have worked with MTN for many years. The staff are personable, knowledgeable and passionate. Whether you are working towards improved fitness, weight loss or competition, Roger and his coaches can help you achieve that next level.

Nathan Mavelil

Incredible gym. The coaches are able to work with any individual based on their goals. Wether you are a recreationally going to keep in shape, or training to compete, the Kru and coaches will take you to the next level. The environment is very supportive, and very new-person friendly. The gym is beautiful with quality up-to-date equipment.

Jessica Carter

Amazing atmosphere, skilled instruction, and a passion for Muay Thai and promoting a positive learning environment that is next to none. Clean facilities and they’re always improving and updating the equipment. Roger and Aly are very knowledgeable in their areas of expertise and invest themselves fully in bettering their students and making sure everyone who walks in the doors is given the best experience possible.

My husband lost 30 pounds in 3-4 MONTHS with their muay thai kickboxing classes! They offer different classes for every different age group. Diverse club; great for getting in shape (and for keeping kids active!) The owner Kru is very understanding, easy to work with, fun, and friendly; he even sponsored my son for something completely outside of his club. Keep Calm and Muay Thai :)

I’ve been involved in martial arts in one form or another for 29 years including a short amateur mma career so when searching for a gym to send my 6 year old I had high expectations. The facility is up to date, clean and spacious and Class sizes are very manageable with lots of training times and options. As a former coach I know how difficult it can be and that coaching is an art all in itself. Muay Thai coaches Kru and Mark are top notch! They pay close attention to individual needs and development and are meticulous yet patient while teaching proper technique and form. Additionally they teach and reinforce important values such as team work, empathy, perseverance, integrity and self control. I would recommend Muay Thai Niagara to anyone looking for a kids martial arts program as well as a great/fun place for adults to get in shape or further develop their fight skills

Starting coming to 3 classes/week about 10 weeks ago and have already seen dramatic results. Couldn’t be happier with the atmosphere at this gym, friendly helpful teachers with only positive attitude day in day out. Can’t wait to challenge myself with other classes offered, and see results in 6 months!

Ariana Faller

Amazing energy ! Love the atmosphere.

My seven year old daughter has learned technique, confidence, respect and so much more these coaches are not only there to kick your butt and get you in shape but mentally transform you for the better . I’m so grateful for MTN .

Amazing place to train. Very beginner friendly. I 100% recommend giving them a shot

Anisa Bilbili

Coach Kru and his wife Coach Ally are driven to create the best possible experience for you and ease your way into the martial art. All are welcome, from beginners to pros, you get into a class with everyone and train with everyone. For the advanced athletes, you get more specific training to ensure that you get the best bang for your buck, but Coach Kru trains everyone to get to this stage and the way he does it is seamless. While creating confidence in your abilities, the students train each other to get better and improve every class. There is no excuse for mediocrity, "NO SLACKNESS" as Coach Kru says, it is only you and your ability to push yourself every class. Coach Ally supplements the fighters needs of strength and conditioning, she is merciless and will definitely push you to your limits while giving you the required burn you need. Together they create an absolutely strong family environment for anyone willing to undergo training to become a better fighter as families who train together stay stronger together. The gym also sells all your muay thai gear needs, having all the best equipment you need to support your fighting needs. It really is an one stop shop for an amazing experience. Try a couple classes, and you'll see exactly what I mean. Like my review after going through the Muay Thai Niagara experience so other people know that you had a great one!

Amber Cote

I can’t say enough good things about this gym and the trainers. I was given a very grim outlook on my future. This gym has given me a completely different outlook on what my future. They have made me believe in myself and realize that if I put in the work that there isn’t anything that I can’t do. I have received so much support from all of the staff here as well as all my fellow members it truly is an extension of my family

Lyndsay Gazzard

Muay Thai Niagara is fantastic! My daughter and I both signed up almost a year ago after doing a 1 week trial and I cant say enough about the positive, encouraging, SAFE environment they have created. My daughter is not athletic at all, so I was a little unsure how she would do. The instructors are amazing! On a regular basis you will hear coachs explaining to the children about strength and power and that they aren't to use the skills learnt at school or on friends or siblings. We have had a very positive experience and I recommend anyone on the fence about signing up thier child or their self to go check out the culb and try a few classes. My daughter has blossomed from shy and timid to a confident young lady with a new passion for martial arts.

Coach Randi has been working with me in the prenatal fitness class for the past few weeks. Her knowledge has astounded me and the diversity of her experience and education is awesome! I'm learning so much about prenatal fitness and the general changes our bodies go through and i know i'll be thankful for this as my pregnancy progresses. Randi is super easy to talk to and makes our sessions fun every time. I would highly recommend anyone interested in fitness to connect with Randi. Her pre- and post natal classes are my personal choice but she does so much including one on one kickboxing and group classes.

Randi-Lee BowslaughAlderson

10 out 5. Great gym, knowledgeable and very patient coaches as well as wonderful atmosphere of friendship and respect. Gym itself is fully stocked with anything you may need for any type of workout!

Doug Spiers

Great workout, goes quick and works every part of you. Super nice people. Helpful and conscientious and fun.

Melyssa Gauthier

Love this gym and the energy it brings. After dealing with some health issues and being out od the game for awhile it was like coming back home. I've trained elsewhere and didn't feel as welcome as here. Now I'm able to train to fight again in a way that works for me.

Lindsey Van kralingen

Amazing place and Kru with his wife they are so professional and amazing to teach our kids awesome place to be , so happy for taking the kids to the best place ever . Thanks for all you guys do keep it up ????????????

Kimmy Ann

Truth be told. I lost my interest in martial arts which I have been dong most of my life. The training is tough, though if you let go of your ego people are amazing at Muay Thai Niagara. I have trained at some of the top places in North America and I truly believe this".

Elliot Grady

Amazing atmoshphere, caring, professional and extreamly supportive whether you're a recreational athlete or competitive one.

Jordan O'Brien

Hey look you added the review I'm quite new to it but it's just an amazing thing to learn and from how old it goes back to it's been so refined and perfected it's just in my opinion a amazing thing to learn

Andrea Amaya

My son is in 7 and we have been at this gym for about 3 years ! Kru and coach Robyn are amazing and such a great help !! All of the coaches are amazing I had some defiance issues with my son and we have come so far with him being here !!! ???? it’s another home to us ????

Kirsten A

My son (15) and Daughter (9) both attend classes at Muay Thai Niagara. Over the last almost 4 years my children have found a home at Muay Thai Niagara. This is more then just a martial arts club. This is a community that supports and encourages our children to be the best they can be. To be ambassadors in our community, to be kind and loving to those around us and to always stand up for those who can not speak for themselves. Kru Roger Lumyoung and Coach Robyn along with the other amazing coaches make sure the children learn in a fun and safe environment. They say it takes a village to raise a child and I am blessed to have found such an amazing group of people that my children can look up to. Thank you so much MTN for all you do and continue to do for my family.

When I asked my Tai Chi and Qi Gong teacher Sifu Malcolm MacQuarry of the Threads of Gold Institute of Tai Chi and Qi Gong for a suggestion of a local martial arts class for a six year old girl, he enthusiastically recommended Muay Thai on Grantham as his grandchildren attend and thoroughly enjoy their classes. he further commented the instructors are so knowledgeable, friendly and exceptionally good with children. We enrolled Saku, a tiny shy girl of six on his recommendation, to help with her focus, confidence , and fitness. She enjoys her three times a week classes immensely and daily asks "Is it my class today?" Saku expressed her enthusiasm most succinctly when asked how do your Muay Thai classes, answered "Good!" and why responded with "because to concentrate and to learn respect, because it is so much fun and we kick the bags!". Though only a few weeks into her classes she seems to be coming out of her shell and to me appears less fearful; a sign of her confidence growing. I appreciate the professional attitude, discipline and friendliness of everyone I have met at Muay Thai Niagara, Kru Roger is exceptionally kind and good with the kids I'm glad that Sifu Malcolm Mac Quarry's advice and recommendation has been accurate Lin McCoy

Great gym very clean, great atmosphere. The Instructors are very knowledgeable and they work through individual needs to make sure the entire class is engaged and at the same level. I love it, it's an amazing stress reliever and a great workout at the same time.

CHRIS H

My 2 son's have been attending muay thai niagara for 3 years this coming December. Within these past couple of years i have watched both of my kids come out of their little shell and be more confident and motivated for something other than videogames. Their number one favorite reson for going to class is the coaches! And student coaches! All the coaches/student coaches are so patient and amazing with the students. Such good vibes at MTN. Very happy that ive gotten my kids involved in such a great club! With amazing coaches for my kids to have to look up too. Decent prices too ???? soo come out... first week is free ! ????????????????

Jessica B

Everyone is so friendly and helpful. Lumyoung is one of the nicest guys, very friendly and he's good with the kids :) I'm happy the champ takes the time and makes the effort to make sure everyone succeeds I his school. I also want to congratulate you on all your success inside the ring!

shirlene tendean

My bother trained with Roger for years, then my dad started doing private classes and later on I joined him. Every Friday morning at 7am and most Tuesdays at 7am we are there giving it all. Roger has always been so encouraging and fun to work out with. ????????

Shane

Club is clean and always gives positive energy full of confidence to our kids. Thank you so much Coach Kru ,Coach Mark ,Coach Aly and whole Musy Thai team for helping my kids strong and positive attitude and teaching them how to handle and come up with positivity I all harder situations. Thank u so much.

Sarah Lockwood

My experience with MTN was not as wonderful as all these other reviews. I found the owner and KRU of this gym extremely inappropriate to members and staff both male and female. I found him to be aggressive when you didn’t agree with him, if you don’t train at his gym, he gives you no respect and will call you out on a public platform. The gym is more expensive than any other gym in the city, yet has no coaches with any fight experience (they have all left), and all of their competitive athletes have left as well, The KRU is never there and spends no time training his competitive athletes. The facility is mediocre at best, not clean and the floor and equipment is falling apart. Not only did I sign up for a year membership but also signed up and paid for nutrition and personal training help, the nutrition plan I received was horrible (but they refused to work with me on another one) and I only got 1 personal training session out of the 3 I paid for. I trained here for over a year, the first 6 month were good but the last 6 I stayed just to run out my membership. Once I did leave, I was confronted by him and received less than positive text messages about my departure.

Nick

I was a member at the club for over 8 years. Muay Thai has been a very important part of my life over that time and I have MTN to thank for that. The gym has a welcoming attitude and provides a structured workout for all members, regardless of their skill level. Kru Roger and the other coaches take pride in what they do and care for their members. Over the years, I have made some great friends and connections and even though I no longer live in the area, I look forward to training there when I come back to visit.

Trevor Mackenzie

Only have good things too say about this gym. The trainers are knowledgable, approachable and are always very helpful. The gym has a positive atmosphere where everyone is encouraging eachother,and a clean environment. I've only been at it for a few months and seeing improvements both physically and mentally. Thank you!!

ullmo dell

I have been training at MTN for 10+ years now and love the atmosphere, staff, facility and training. The facility is clean, always friendly and non judgemental. I am competing for MTN in May so have been pushing my training alot more in the past few months. I have been so happy with the amount of competitive fighters to train and practice with aswell as the guidance we have all been given by our coaches. I highly recommend Muay Thai Niagara to ANYONE interested in recreational or competitive training.

Carrie VAnderform

Tonight I came into the gym with absolutely zero energy. A 10 hour workday in heavy industrial construction can do that to you, especially after a super long Canadian winter. 1 1/2 hours later I left at max energy ready go out and have fun for the reminder of the night. This gym is a real treasure. The coaches are professionals and expert at teaching. Focused every session. But I have experienced such excellence before. There is more there. The coaches seems so personal, even when the gym is packed. The entire group in the gym as whole is worked into this energetic fighter spirit. And yet I don't get whipped up into a frenzy because I get yelled at, or intimidated or shamed. No, it's because Kru radiates this energy out of every pore of his being. And he continuously asks for energies back. "NO SLACKNESS" he commands. How does he do it? Every time? I don't know and I don't care if I ever figure it out. It just is, a extraordinarily competitive and energetic environment. Yet with so much passion and happiness. Is it "magic"? Quite possible. The competitive athletes are amazing. They have no attitude with nothing to prove. But what they do prove to me is a quality of highest character. They are naturals at scaling back the intensity when I'm paired up with them. Yet just tough enough to shape me into the warriors they are. Quite amazing really.

MARK A-M

Great atmosphere Very positive vibes If you want to bring your game to another level this is the place.

Jo Colette

Muay Thai Niagara is an amazing gym full or energy and passion. Kru Rogers and his coaches are very welcoming and professional. Their passion for their art is inspiring and the respect they show their athletes truly makes you feel like you are part of their team. I highly recommend checking them out if you want to learn the art of Muay Thai or just want to get in shape.

Nicholas Borup

My daughters take classes there and the staff and programs here are excellent!

Rachel Dent

Amazing facility with superior coaching staff. My 12 year old daughter has shown improved confidence, strength, resilience and perseverance since joining and I give all the credit to Kru Roger and the family at Muay Thai Niagara. Get your kids out to the kids and youth classes and see them flourish!

Aazain Akhtar

This is the best gym I've ever had the privilege of joining. The coaches are very experienced and give great advice, correcting your form when required and helping you understand the theory of the techniques. The community who trains there are very friendly and there's a great culture of helping other people out, so regardless of skill level, everyone fits in. Whatever your goals are -- be it mastering the art of Muay Thai or just getting a quick workout a few times per week, there is no better place to train than MTN!

Muay Thai Niagara 6 months membership - $770 Evolve MMA 6 months - $240 Boxing Niagara 6 months - $180 Goodlife 6 months - $300 + 100 startup fee YMCA 6 months - $300 + 50 startup fee The owners like to spout that Muay Thai Niagara is a 'family', so would you price gouge your family like this? Never mind the fact that you can't get out of their contracts either. These people only see you as dollar signs.

Geoff Gamble

All these positive reviews popping up one after another. Talk to some ex members ask them whey they left. The facility is filthy, outdated and disorganized. As a member I witnessed screaming matches between the owner and his staff while classes where going on. I witnessed athlete's thrown out of class because they wore a shirt of another competitive athlete that the owner didn't like, or thrown out because they didn't "cut an angle". I was waiting for a class to start and the owner handed me a box of files and said "go through this and throw out it all out" (didn't work there, was paying to train there). Mark is the only coach there that is respectful and cares about the athletes. We watched him put on a fight card last year, got all kinds of sponsorship money from local businesses and said he was going to better the gym and equipment within it.... He bought a pull up bar lol - this event was $100+ a ticket, as well as the thousands sponsored with all proceeds going to the gym, but hey a pull up bar is pretty nice!
