Best gym on the Soi

Best gym on the Soi. Trained with Dan since he was a wee nipper. Fantastic gym and wealth of knowledge from trainers, fighters and key people in the UK Muay Thai community 💚

Both my boys love training at McGowan…

Both my boys love training at McGowan Muay Thai. It’s not just a gym to them it’s like family with kru dan, the other coaches and students being so friendly and welcoming. There is no better place for our boys to train and they feel so comfortable at McGowan Muay Thai. For them to travel an hour to and from the gym multiple times a week speaks volumes to how good the place is! Highly recommend 👌

Fantastic Muay Thai Gym

Daniel and his team run a great gym, which is well equipped, tidy and well maintained. The knowledge and high level of technique is evidently present in training at all times.

My 11 daughter didn’t want to learn Muay Thai and was a push to get her to join classes, but after a few weeks and thanks to Daniel and his teams approach she is slowly coming around 🤞

Positive vibe for new starters

Son has been going to Mcgowan for around 6 weeks. It’s a great setup for adults and children. Welcoming for newcomers and a really positive vibe. Dan has taken the time to talk to the juniors about mindset and motivation, which is such an important aspect as well as the physical side.

A Top-Tier Muay Thai Gym with…

A Top-Tier Muay Thai Gym with Incredible Energy

McGowan Muay Thai (MMT) is hands down one of the best gyms I’ve trained at. The facilities are excellent—clean, well-equipped, and clearly maintained to a high standard. But what really sets MMT apart is the atmosphere and the people.

There’s a wealth of knowledge under one roof, with experienced coaches who know how to bring out the best in everyone, whether you’re training to compete or just looking to get fit and learn a new skill. The gym has a great balance, with serious fighters training alongside complete beginners, all in a supportive and respectful environment.

The energy is infectious, the characters are brilliant, and the community feel makes every session something to look forward to. If you’re thinking about starting Muay Thai or want to take your training to the next level, MMT is the place to be.

Highly recommend!

Great Thai classes.

My son Igor found the trainers being very helpful, he found the atmosphere welcoming and the demonstrations very clear.He found the coaches friendly and their advice was very constructive.He has very few criticisms as he enjoyed his time at the gym although the warmup were sometimes repetitive.
