Private - 1 hour
Book a private session tailored to your experience, fitness level and individual goals. Whether you are stepping into a Muay Thai gym for the first time, looking to improve your fitness or preparing for a fight, your trainer will customize the session around what you want to achieve.
Focus on pad work while refining your technique, timing, speed, accuracy and power, while getting an effective high-intensity workout at the same time. Sessions can cover any or all of the traditional Muay Thai fundamentals, including punches, elbows, kicks, knees, defense, footwork and clinching.
Private training gives you more time for individual feedback, focused repetition and detailed technical corrections. For fighters, sessions can be tailored toward specific areas of fight preparation.

WHY PEOPLE TRAIN AT UPPERCUTS
HB ORTHODOX
"The best decision coming to this gym. Lovely trainers, very accommodating but also well-skilled. Learned more in my month of PTs here than I did in 3 months at a larger gym nearby. Tong (kru K) was super polite and helpful and I’ll be looking forward to seeing the trainers and lucky the cat when I can next get the time" 💪🏼💪🏼
SANDER CHU
"This is a hidden gem. The trainers here are amazing and care so much for your development and success. They are patient and give very individualized feedback and coaching. The small gym is perfect for learning and getting attention. I wish I had more time to train here but I will definitely come back in the future! Can’t recommend this enough for both beginners and advanced Muay Thai students. You Weill have fun and learn a lot!"
IAN GILLAN
"Great training. I switched from a larger gym to this gym after trying their group class. Smaller group allowed me to get more rounds on the pads and more individual attention from the trainers. Highly recommend. I will train here when I come back to Phuket.Trainers speak good English as well."

Our Muay Thai Story
Supporting the Next Generation
Uppercuts Muay Thai was built with more than training in mind. From the beginning , we wanted to create a gym that could support our local Thai community, celebrate Thai culture and help grow the next generation of Muay Thai.
Some of our Kru began fighting as young as 8 years old. Along the way, they were guided, encouraged and mentored by positive coaches who helped shape their skills, discipline, character and love for the sport. We are grateful for those who invested their time and knowledge in our trainers, and today they are proud to pass that same support, knowledge and respect for Muay Thai traditions on to the next generation.
We are proud to help young athletes learn Muay Thai, build confidence and discipline, and develop their skills both inside and outside the ring. For us, this is more than training. It is about giving back to the sport, the culture and the community that helped shape who we are.
Supporting our community. Celebrating Thai culture. Growing the next generation. Together, we are the Uppercuts Muay Thai family.
