Heavy Hitters is seriously the best Muay Thai gym ever. Great atmosphere. Very accessible to all levels. The other members are really nice and helpful, which was very helpful for a newbie like me. Coach Mike is very knowledgeable, methodical, and really knows how to teach. He also has the patience of a saint. I am a klutz, and he had to tell me to watch certain movements or teach me to kick in a particular way over and over again, yet I have never felt any frustration from him at any time. Every time he taught me something, he taught it with the same energy as this was the first time. Tldr; If you want to learn Muay Thai with good technique, you will never find a better place than Heavy Hitters!

This is the best Muay Thai gym in Philly. Coach Mike is awesome and makes it easy for anyone to feel comfortable joining. Whether you're there to train for competition or just to get healthy in a fun way, he easily accommodates for all. If you've always been curious about trying Muay Thai but are nervous about sparring and getting hit, you can come to the fundamentals class where you can learn the basics and just hit pads, if you're a little more advanced there are intermediate class for both drilling and clinching, and even advanced classes and fight training. Whatever level you're at, Coach Mike harbors an environment to make everyone feel comfortable when they walk through the door and making sure anyone leaves any toxic BS at home. He's super nice and patient and great a getting you to push your limits to get you into the best shape of your life. Everyone on the team is really great and were really awesome at helping you learn and get better even if they were more advanced. All in all, an amazing gym and if you've ever been curious to start training, this is the place to do it.

I want to start by saying I’ve trained here for about a year and a half, and joining was one of the best decisions I’ve ever made. The environment is welcoming, motivating, and pushes you to be better every time you step foot in the gym. I’ve built an amazing group of friends here that goes far beyond just training. Coach Mike (and all of the other coaches) is top-notch and focuses heavily on strong fundamentals, which has helped me grow not only in Muay Thai skill but also in confidence and discipline. Training at Heavy Hitters teaches you a lot about yourself, both mentally and physically — but you have to put the work in. If you do, it will pay off more than you could imagine. Whether you’re brand new or experienced, this gym will challenge you, support you, and help you become a stronger version of yourself. I recommend it 10/10 times — it’s worth every penny.

Joining Heavy Hitters has easily been one of the best decisions I’ve made. As a complete beginner, I wasn’t sure what to expect, but the environment here is so welcoming, supportive, and motivating. The coaches are top-notch across the board, and Coach Mike in particular has been a huge part of my progress. He does an incredible job of breaking things down in a way that’s easy to understand, and his energy and encouragement always push you to do your best. After just a few months, I feel stronger, more confident, and excited to keep improving. Whether you’re new to Muay Thai or looking to take your training to the next level, I can’t recommend Heavy Hitters enough.
