Absolutely wonderful place for a tough training with highly professional staff and great people around. Had an experience in several gyms and Stand Up Muay Thai is definitely my place. Every class is hard work that pays off in the sparring sessions later. Gym has a unique grading system that allows students and staff to track advancement and pair accordingly. Kru is always there to teach, help, encourage and empower. If you're looking for a great place to train - Stand Up Muay Thai is The place to go.

Been training here for about 7 months now and I never look back on my decision. The head coach Kru Williams, is a high level muay thai instructor who has traveled the world in the pursuit of his talents. His life-long fight experience and iq resonates through every move he demonstrates. He is a very passionate, attentive, encouraging, and goal driven man, filled with positivity. The best quality I see in Kru is that he sees all his students as equals, knows everyone by name, and puts in the effort to converse with each of his students individually and on a personal level, no matter how busy the

Eleven out of Five stars. There is always a positive atmosphere in every session and the instructors are incredibly passionate. There is a very strong sense of camaraderie among everyone there. It is about learning a martial art, being able to defend yourself, fighting, and fitness. It is also, surprisingly, about recovery and body maintenance. I found that they not only care about training and improvement but making sure that others are not breaking their bodies doing so. If you are willing to put your head down and learn, you will find skills here that will carry you through your life.

As someone who is a beginner and never trained in any martial arts before, I have nothing but kind things to say about Stand Up. Kru Williams went above and beyond to make my friend (also a beginner), and I feel welcome and spent the entire first class showing us the ropes. Everyone who attends the classes are really friendly and egos are checked at the door. You'll learn to fight and get a fantastic workout in the process. HIGHLY recommended!

This is my first Muay Thai gym I've ever attended and the experience here has helped me become more healthy/fit and knowledgeable about this empowering art. Training here has become my (and my sisters) weekly routine. It always brings me a lot of joy to train with such positive, uplifting, non-discriminating and motivating coaches, mentors and teammates. Super friendly and welcoming no matter what skill level, age, gender, and background. Highly recommend to whoever is interested in learning about Muay Thai, self-defense/control, body maintenance, or just trying something new!
