I've had a spectacular first week at Taipan Muaythai in Marrickville so far. I have been kick boxing for 6 months now & have been looking for a Muaythai specific gym over the last month or so. A friend & training partner of mine put me onto Taipan in Marrickville & this first week has been exceptional. The guys there know their stuff back to front, with many of the trainers having extensive international fighting experience. They run experienced & beginners classes at 5:30pm & 6:30pm Monday to Friday and what a session it is, I have never sweat so much in my life. The guys there are very technical, picking up on small areas I could improve on almost instantly. They run a very thorough session combining skipping, shadow sparring, pad work, sparring, clinch work & conditioning all within an hour session. The gym is a brilliant a size, equipped with a full ring, 6 heavy bags, room to skip & shadow spar and a separate, fully inclusive weights room. The facilities are open for use for all members and guests. The rates are very affordable, at $20 per casual giving you unlimited access on classes & the gym for the entirety of your stay during opening hours for that day. A membership will get you unlimited classes between Monday - Saturday with full access to the gym, all for a very affordable $35 a week. Whether it's fitness, a new style of gym that doesn't involve the boring old weight sets, a new challenge, or you have a passion for Muaythai or kickboxing in general, then I highly recommend that you come and visit Taipan Muaythai. Whether it be in Mortdale, Marrickville, Campbelltown or Bondi, you'll be met with friendly staff, great facilities & a workout you'll not only remember but will be aching to do again! read more
