About The Owners

Two passionate fighters – Henry Lee and KC Carlos–founded Yak Yai Muay Thai in 2022. 

Their mission began with wanting to share the highest standards of training with Muay Thai enthusiasts, whether it was their first time trying a class or if they were a long-time veteran of the sport.

After working together for many years and dedicating more than half of their lives to Muay Thai, they decided to create their own legacy to share with martial artists all over the world. Thus, Yak Yai Muay Thai was born on the sunny island of Phuket, Thailand.

It is their hope that every student that walks through the doors learns something new about themselves and the beautiful Art of Eight Limbs. Yak Yai Muay Thai guarantees incredible training by passionate coaches and friendly training partners. Beginners and experienced athletes alike will gain a new perspective, as well as many new tools and techniques.

They guarantee that they will provide you with a dedicated strategic plan to improve your overall goals through your journey in Muay Thai.

I trained at Yak Yai for a week, and I wish I could have trained there longer!! The workouts were hard and good, with strength, pad work, clinching and sparring. The trainers are so nice and funny, but also strict when needed. They give good personal feedback every class. The gym is nice and clean. And Henry and KC are absolute heroes, very welcoming.

Had a really great experience at Yai Yai Muay Thai in Phuket! The gym is clean, well-equipped, and less crowded than most other gyms in Phuket, which made the whole session feel more focused and relaxed. The trainers are experienced, friendly, and create a very welcoming environment. One thing that really stood out was how structured the warm-up and strength & conditioning part was – we did a proper circuit, which you don’t often see in other Thai gyms. It added a nice bit of variety and intensity to the session. For sparring, they provide 20oz gloves, which is especially great for beginners or people who aren’t super comfortable with sparring yet – it keeps things safer and more controlled. I also got to do some clinch work with one of the coaches, which was both fun and really helpful. Overall, the vibe was super positive – we laughed a lot, trained hard, and had a great time. 10/10 would recommend to anyone looking for solid Muay Thai training in Phuket without the big crowds.
