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 have been to a few muay thai gyms, but Yak Yai has to be my favorite so far. All of the trainers are very welcoming and always has a smile on their face and are there to help you improve. Yak Yai is easily a 10/10 for me 😊

Yak Yai is an awesome gym and even more amazing facility!, this is a great gym for foreigners and Thai alike. The way coach Henry and Kasey help translate the techniques and run the class along with their many experienced and friendly Thai coaches is something I have not seen anywhere else in Thailand!!. They also do a great job of integrating more modern techniques of strength and conditioning into the classes which I think will start to show with their fighters in the long run and provides a more productive approach to conditioning rather than the classic Thai style.

I recently attended a drop-in group class here, and it was fantastic. The trainers were attentive, ensuring I mastered the fundamentals before moving to advanced techniques, which made me feel safe during sparring sessions. The facility is impressive—spacious, clean, and well-maintained, including the washrooms. The receptionist was friendly and informative about class options. I rented equipment that was hygienically cleaned. Overall, an excellent experience with dedicated trainers. I look forward to training here again!
