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.

Reviews
I had the pleasure of training at this gym in January, I was very impressed with the level of coaching and how fun and exciting the classes were. Everyone there was extremely welcoming and friendly, but despite that… it was also one of the most challenging classes I took on Fitness Street. Strength training, bag, work, pad work, sparring, and clenching in every class! I highly recommend it for anyone wishing to improve their Muay Thai. Looking forward to my next trip there. Thanks Yak Yai for an awesome experience!

I spent 6 weeks in Thailand training at Muay Thai gyms across multiple cities, and Yak Yai was easily the best experience I had. They put so much thought and effort into their classes, from the HIIT-style warm ups that change everyday, to the music they play which keeps you hyped throughout the session, to the well structured pad work, bag work, sparring, etc. that ensures you get the most out of your time in class. I would absolutely recommend them over any other gym on fitness street.

Everything you're reading in the reviews is true. KC and Henry lead an incredible staff in a reeeaaallly nice and clean gym. I was surprised to feel the home atmosphere in such a short time. Can't stress enough how great the Krus (and Pham!) were to work with. Highly doubt it's the last time you'll see me there!

I have been training at Yak Yai for a little over a month, and it has been a really great experience. This was my first time in Thailand and my first time training Muay Thai. I mostly did private sessions, and the coach did an excellent job of progressively improving my weaknesses. The coach was always on time, engaged in the training, and kept pushing me to my limits. The facilities were spacious and clean, from the toilets to the showers and all the equipment. I can definitely recommend Yak Yai Muay Thai!
