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 absolutely fell in love with Yak Yai and all their trainers. I came in new to the sport with a very limited boxing background, over weight and out of shape and left a new man! A year and a half ago I had a back and hip operation which left me with limited movement but because they took the time to get to know me they tailored the training to suit. When I arrived I couldnt throw any type of kick but with practice and constant adjustments I can now kick thigh height! which I never thought would be possible. I'm physically and mentally stronger for spending the time there and am grateful for the everything I was taught. I can't wait to come back and continue where I left off! Thank you Yak Yai and team

I trained at Yak Yai Muay Thai and I’m honestly beyond impressed. From the moment I stepped in, the energy was focused, disciplined, and welcoming—exactly what you want in a serious training environment. The coaching was top-tier. The instructors broke everything down with precision, making sure technique, balance, and timing were all dialed in. Whether you’re a beginner or have experience, they meet you where you’re at and push you to improve without ever making you feel out of place. The workout itself was intense—in the best way possible. Pads, drills, conditioning…everything was structured to challenge you and sharpen your skills. You can tell this is authentic Muay Thai being taught with real passion and knowledge. On top of that, the facility was clean, organized, and had a great atmosphere. Everyone there was respectful and motivated, which made the experience even better. If you’re looking to level up your striking or just want a legit Muay Thai experience, I highly recommend Yak Yai Muay Thai. Big thank you to the owners KC and Henry for welcoming my partner and I with open arms !

This is my second year training at Yak Yai Muay Thai and I can confidently say it’s one of the most ego-free environments you’ll ever find (no toxic/ competitive vibes). You’ll see people of all experience levels here and everyone is welcomed (from beginners to fighters). The gym has a very homey atmosphere and the coaches and owner truly make the difference. They genuinely care about each student and take the time to correct your technique so you can continuously improve. Every class is well structured, you get to work on everything: drills, pad work, bag work, clinch, and sparring. The warm-up is also unique compared to other gyms (no running…). Each day is a different circuit made by KC which really helps build both strength and conditioning. One thing about this gym is that it is always spotless. Equipment is cleaned after every use and you can actually see the staff maintaining that standard. I’m already looking forward to coming back next year ❤️
