My son has been taking Muay Thai for about a year now. I have to say the confidence he has gotten from Kru Dan has been great. He not only learns the movements of Muay Thai but the history and beliefs. Thank you for teaching my son great techniques. As a mom this is what I value. Thank you!

Best kept secret Martial Arts studio in the valley! Everything about this place from the location, businesses in the shopping center, facility, accessibility, parking, prices, culture, instructors are on point. These instructors’ crews/ are so good at what they do, and it shows. They pay extra attention to technique, discipline, honor, life events; they fully engage their students and even the audience. They are serious, friendly and even funny crew. We were referred here, and they genuinely became family immediately and we even do outdoor activities together as a community. Per for adults, children group or single classes and we highly recommend them!

I have found a community of diverse backgrounds coming together in a positive way. We are all at different points in our lives but when I am on the mat, I feel connected to my Kru and my training partners. After 2 years of training, I still feel the motivation to attend classes and I have grown so much more confident on and off the mat. I am so grateful to have found Mayid Martial Arts, Kru Dan, and his incredible team.

This martial arts studio is an excellent place to start or to continue your Muay Thai or karate journey. Kru (instructor) Dan creates a welcoming environment for everyone. Our gym is incredibly diverse- we have hobbyist, fighters, Mom & dads whose children train there and every age in between. I have been training Muay Thai with Kru Dan for 7 years and I cannot recommend his instruction enough. He is an excellent teacher and is able to relay information in a clear and accessible way for all. He is able to push us all, but recognizes we all have different goals. Training with Kru Dan has helped me immensely. I have developed skills, of course, but the impact of my training has gone beyond the physical aspects and I have gained confidence, mental fortitude and better emotional regulation.
