In Thailand, a traditional Muay Thai fighter’s progress is measured by their extensive fight record. Unfortunately, we don’t have the luxury of training, eating and sleeping twice a week, 6 days a week; and competing every other weekend.
At Tampa Muay Thai, we follow the Khanomtom 5 level system of progression. Each level builds on the previous and helps students grow in a goal-oriented environment to excel on their Muay Thai journey. Want to know if you’re ready to take the level test? Talk to one of your coaches.

What Our Students Are Saying…
“I started going when a friend told me about this awesome gym. For me, a typical gym is not a challenge and is very boring. I have learned so much about self defense while also getting in shape. The instructors are really nice, patient and really impressive fighters. I am NOT training to be a fighter myself, but I have definitely learned a lot about a culture I never knew existed and I’m so glad to be a part of this gym.”
