Sityodtong is a great gym. The gym has produced great fighters for sure and has world-class muay thai. What has kept me here for a decade is the sense on community, belonging, and purpose. Yes, this is a fight gym that can make you deadly fighter and improve fitness, but its more importantly a martial arts gym that can make you a better person. read more

A small, but very well-equipped, training facility with world-class staff and a wealth of classes. The memberships are pricey ($200 month to month, though it's less if you do a six month or full year membership), but you can build up a martial arts skill set very quickly with their elite-level trainers. If you go here and work hard, Joe Rogan may talk about how impressive your striking is one day. read more

This is quite possibly one of the best Muay Thai and Mixed Martial Arts schools in the world. They have a small but very, very good training facility complete with bags, mats, a ring, part of an octagon, etc... On any given day you could see a big named Ultimate Fighter training there. The staff is also world class, the head instructor is Mark DellaGrotte, a trainer with extensive Mauy Thai experience including training and fighting in Thailand. I would HIGHLY recommend this school for anybody looking for a good Muay Thai or MMA school, or even a place to get in shape and learn some self defense. read more

I cannot attest to their training, but I'd like to comment on their customer service or, I should say, potential customer service. I've left two messages. My third call, the person who answered told me she'd call me back in an hour. I never heard back. I then followed up with another phone call. A week later, I followed up with another phone call. I finally got a message on my voicemail with some available times to reach her, and no one was available during any of the times I was instructed to call. So I sent two emails two two separate email addresses listed on the website as well as that form you fill out. No response. I don't think I've ever tracked someone so hard to pay them money. read more

This is a great gym to learn or practice traditional Muay Thai. I visited from out of town, called before my visit, and the man I spoke to told me it was $20 to drop in on a class and when I told him that I would be around Boston for a week he told me not to sweat the drop in fee. Muay Thai is a community, so that was cool. My first visit was awesome. I dropped in, wasn't charged, had a great class and bought 4 of their T shirts for friends back home to support a local business since they didn't charge me. The young woman I talked to set me up with some extra gear to use during class and said that I could come back and just tell whoever was there that I already filled out my paper work and it would be all good. The class was great, the coach was awesome. Here's why they lost a star. I took an Uber back the next day to take another class and an older woman was there who seemed more like a business manager (def not one of the athletes) and not only charged me, but gave me a huge hassle about not having my own gear and seemed like she wasn't going to let me even train although I told her repeatedly that I had already trained there the day before. I didn't mind paying the fee (although if I had known, maybe I would have bought 1 less Tshirt the day before). I get that it's a business, but her attitude was rude. Fortunately, I joined the class and the coach (a different one from before) that day was awesome too. Go for the classes and authentic Muay Thai! Ignore the financial officer with the crap attitude if you run into her. I would still go back for the trainers, but could do without the salt. read more

Of the BEST Muay Thai training facilities in the nation! I know Pro UFC and MMA fighters that trained here, it's no joke. I used to train, but only for myself, never to compete. Sityodong is a most prestigious school of Muay Thai. read more

Legit, high level Muay Thai, BJJ and MMA instruction. This place won't coddle you. They will not treat you like a snowflake. They will teach you how to fight. If you are looking for cardio kickboxing or tae bo look elsewhere. The instructors are excellent and the gym churns out pro MMA fighters for the UFC and LFA read more

I have been training here for over a year now and highly recommend it for those interested in martial arts, particularly muay thai, jiu jitsu, and mixed martial arts. This is a professional gym with exceptional staff and training. There is a sense of team here, which I really like. When I was looking for a gym, I visited probably a dozen different gyms, made charts of positives and negatives, and Sityodtong was easily the top choice. This is a great place to join both to get fit and have fun as well as a great place to train with a goal of competing. I mostly train muay thai, which I really love. We study a traditional thai style. Muay thai involves sparring at the intermediate level, which is incredibly fun. And the most important part is that everyone is respectful and while I certainly get hit (although I'm trying to fix that), I've never been hurt and have never had problems at work. What I mean by that is that I work in a hospital and really can't walk around looking like I've been in fights. While the further along you get, the harder the sparring, the beginning classes are great in that you learn a lot, will train with a partner, but are not in danger of getting hurt. This was very important for me and I can't stress enough how respectful everyone is of each other. And what's best, you can try a free muay thai class every Monday and Friday at 6pm. No reason not to try it out. read more

I was in town for the weekend and dropped in on the Saturday 10am all levels class muay thai class. Great instructor and welcoming group of people to train with. I would definitely go back next time I am in town! read more

Easily the best gym in the northeast. They offer a wide variety of classes and recently introduced a great wrestling program. The gym has a great team atmosphere and welcomes any skill level with open arms. read more

Let's start with the positives - This is a superb Muay Thai gym for people of all levels to learn and train. The schedule is reasonably flexible and the facility is top notch and well kept. NEGATIVES - The "Advanced Muay Thai Class" offered on Monday and Wednesday nights is not an authentic Muay Thai class. It's run by 2 chubby guys who are probably decent MMA trainers because they train the fighters who compete for Sityodtong but really don't know how to train authentic Muay Thai. The class consists of you training some basic combos with a partner before doing some round robin sparring with other members of the class but here's the catch: Not all members of the class are "advanced." You have people in there that run the gamut from "who the hell taught that guy how to throw that crappy roundhouse and how did he make it to this class?" to guys that clearly know what they're doing and fight competitively. In short, you end up brawling rather than sparring and it's not much different than your common street fight between two untrained individuals. One of their classes I attended they had us cross our arms so that we couldn;t use them while your partner tries to hit you in the face. While this may be a novel way to practice to your head movement it is NOT MUAY THAI. What a f*ckin joke. Now back to the Positives so that we end a good note. Remember when I said "This is a superb Muay Thai gym for people of all levels to learn and train?" That was in reference to the "All levels" Muay Thai class offered on Tues, Thursdays, and Fridays. That's because these classes are taught by Kru Massey. Not much is known about his origins except for the fact the he spent 13 years in the jungles of Thailand training and kicking down banana trees Jean Claude Van Damme style. He's also actually fought in the ring which I don't know if the same can be said for the other 2 dudes teaching the advanced classes. Just look at his shins. He has extensive scars from surgical repairs and if i had to guess I'd say it's probably because he broke those bad boys off in some unlucky guys' rear ends. If you want a real "advanced" class go to the one at 7pm on Fridays taught by the legend himself. This is dude is the REAL F*CKIN DEAL and could kick your a**, drink your whiskey, and have his way with your lady friend if he wanted to. He's also a pretty cool and friendly dude. All that being said, Sityodtong is great gym to train Muay Thai if you know which classes to attend. :) read more
