My whole family loves KP, his classes, and the amazing atmosphere and family he has created at the gym. Everyone from my 3 year old son & 4 year old daughter, to new to the sport beginners, to numerous professional fighters are welcome and train here. KP will help you advance your skill level QUICKLY, no matter what your competitive or fitness goals are. You’ll notice the incredible team/family atmosphere the first time you walk into the gym.

Came up with some of my team from Texas to train at KP Muay Thai. We had an excellent time!! World class training with a thai champion. Kronphet has over 150 fights and tons of experience. On top of all that, he is extremely kind, patient and respectful with students of all levels. Great family environment! Authentic Muay Thai at its best 👌
