Muay Thai gyms in Singapore
Singapore’s grind culture means that having a decent workout schedule on top of our regular 9-5 full-time job is tough. Plus, hitting a 24-hour gym can be monotonous when it’s just the same moves with more reps or heavier weights. This is where Muay Thai, a fighting sport that is accessible to everyone, comes in clutch for us.
It’s beginner-friendly because learning the sport begins not with technique, but with conditioning. So, if you’re ready to achieve your fitness goals, here are some Muay Thai gyms in Singapore to check out. We’ve categorised them into regions – find a gym that’s near your home or office so you never have an excuse to postpone your next workout sesh.

What is Muay Thai?
Image credit: Evolve University
Muay Thai is a martial art from Thailand that doesn’t just rely on 1 body part but everything – from elbows to knees and your fists and feet. Affectionately called “The Art of 8 Limbs,” Muay Thai may seem complicated but is actually a good beginner sport because it develops a person holistically to become a well-rounded fighter.
But like any other sport, Muay Thai can be physically demanding too, as there is a need to build muscle and condition your body to adapt to the fighting style.
What do I need to bring for Muay Thai classes?
You won’t need equipment like rackets or balls, but Muay Thai fighters do use protection like hand wraps and gloves. Most gyms provide and sell these on-site, so there’s no need to worry too much for your first day of class. Beyond that, just bring enthusiasm and a positive, learning attitude to the classes.
Will I need prior martial arts experience to take Muay Thai classes?
For the intermediate and advanced classes, yes. For novices, don’t fret. Sign up for a beginner’s class and the trainers will teach you important techniques, skills, and exercises. Additionally, a high level of fitness is not a requirement because these classes focus on conditioning, which means building on your muscle strength and stamina.
As with every other form of exercise, results won’t happen overnight. Learning Muay Thai can result in weight loss and increased fitness, but the real achievement will be learning a fun, new sport and being the strongest version of yourself.
Who can take Muay Thai classes?
Anyone – from beginners to advanced Muay Thai athletes. Some of the gyms on this list even offer classes for kids so they can start building the foundation from young.
