I'm a martial arts instructor and a gym manager in Tennessee, my 17 year old son (who's trained since he was 10) spent 6 weeks in Boston this summer and found this gym entirely on his own. They treated him like family. He sent me some videos of his training with various coaches there- I was really impressed with the level of professionalism. He came home with sharpened skills and a lot of great memories. Thanks so much! More...

Wai Kru is a great place to stay in wrestling shape. On Saturdays we have a group of us workout from 4-6pm. The wrestlers range from College age to older.

I have been training at Wai Kru for close to a year. I have notice a great deal of effort from the staff to constantly improve the program and the level of instructions. ..as well as the gym itself. I like the fact that all levels are welcomed and how the instructors work with the students. It is a straight forward program without being pretentious.Thank you... More...

Wai Kru changed my life. Kru John and the rest of the Wai Kru family helped get me out of a rut and find a new passion. I don’t know anywhere else with as much open mat time and trainers so dedicated. Whenever someone is around, they’re making sure you’re technique is on point and you’re getting the most out of your time and money. Highly recommend for anyone looking to get in great physical shape and join a supportive team. More...

I first came to this gym in 2008 when I was a junior at Babson College. I had a great experience, what surprised me the most about this gym is how friendly and eager the instructors were to teach. They were also very attentive and made sure you got the techniques right. I went to other boxing and mma gyms, and very rarely would the instructors be attentive to their students and provide personalized feedback. I had stopped training, because my college classes got too hard and it was tough to find the time to train.8 years later I decide to visit this gym again because of the amazing groupon deal (seriously, if it's still available I highly recommending getting it because it's an amazing deal). This is a place for people who are serious about training, martial arts, and who want to learn from experts. I just did a one hour private workout with Kru John, who is the owner of the gym. Kru John is still a great instructor who is eager to teach and very attentive to his students. He made the workout challenging, but fun at the same time. He was very generous by allowing me to go over the hour in order to get a great workout. At the end I was totally spent, but I really enjoyed the challenge and can't wait to come back.Tips for visiting this gym: 1/ make sure to bring your own water because you'll be sweating a lot and there isn't a water fountain.2/ bring your own gloves and wraps More...

Been going here the past year and a half and the Muay Thai instructor, Kru Mark, is intensive, strict, and skillful. You always regret coming in during the workout, but man, you never regret it afterwards! The classes are challenging and brutal, but you learn proper technique while getting the best workout of your life. Real talkThey also offer Jui jitsu classes as well. More...

I have been training here for over three year. This gym has become like a home to me and i know i am not alone when i say that. so many of us found exactly what we were looking for in Wai Kru: passionate teachers and students, a team environment that truly pushes you to your limits, and a toughness you wont get out of everyday life. if you want to learn the sport of muay thai for the purpose of competition, this is the place for it. if you want to improve your physical fitness and mental strength, wai kru will do that too. a lot of people come in for a few days or weeks, try it out and decide its not something they want to do, but i am sure that is true of any gym where the trainers do not pamper weaknesses or excuses. i have fought and trained only under this gym, so of course my judgement is biased. you always choose your home over someone else's, right? i recommend this gym to anyone looking to learn muay thai.

I've been training here for 4 months it's the most challenging thing I've ever done. The trainers are not looking to be your best friend and aren't afraid to point out your weaknesses. They are there to make you tougher in everyway. We sparr everyday and yes sometimes people hit too hard but, we are there to train to fight. I never liked running or cardio activity and now it's all I do. I'm more confident than ever and my skill and technique are getting better by the day. This place really does become like a second home once you start taking the training seriously and everyone here is great. Sign up. No excuses More...

I did a trial run of a few gyms around my area. I was looking for as place that challenged me while I learned an art -- and maybe someday I will fight too, that would be fun! Anyway, after testing out a few places that didn't really push me I walked into Wai Kru. My first day was a Thursday. They told me to jump in the ring with a jump rope, then we do some abs and legs, then we do some practices. After we work technique we do a rigorous ab workout. I was sore for three days after my first day, now I can get back to the gym next day and I've only been going for three weeks. If you are looking for a place to push you, this place will do the trick.I'm relatively new to the gym, but I haven't seen anyone at the gym act in a behavior that Drew described. They can be rough around the edges when they tell you to pick up the pace, or if they think your giving less than 100%; but I haven't seen any name calling or personal attacks. During my last class a bigger man was at the gym who couldn't keep up during abs and was going to walk out, but the trainer convinced him to stay and just do as many as he could and finish the workout -- he did.Drew, I read that you didn't want to throw punches at a Muay Thai gym, you think the women there aren't able, and you "realized your trainer was a moron." I'm thinking the problem probably wasn't Wai Kru. More...
