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 really enjoyed this gym, going in with zero experience I didn’t know what to expect. But I got good guidance and explanation. The private lessons are great and focuses on the areas you need to improve on. The owners Henry and KC are so nice. I would definitely go back again if I could!

I write this review with the most insane case of holiday blues I have ever experienced. This training institution left me absolutely speechless. The coaches here are second to none! (Especially Kru Nart). Henry and KC (the owners) are ever polite and it’s refreshing to see them involved with everything, you can tell they really love what they’ve built! They have an incredible out of this world training centre and you can see how much effort they put in! The gym is ridiculously clean and hygienic, the group sessions are fantastic and so are the privates! This gym is littered with incredible coaches who have not only coached the best of the best but also fought the best of the best! I became addicted to this gym after my first session and I even had to get a session in on the day of my flight back! I miss this place too much, even though I was there for only a week it felt like my second home! Before coming to Phuket I was thinking of visiting a variety of gyms but I chose this one first and never wanted to look at another gym again!

This gym is an absolute GEM. The owners KC and Henry are the kindest, friendliest, most welcoming people. They are always at the gym running each group session. And for all the newbies, they pay attention in making sure you are getting on okay during training. Safety is very important at this gym. So you can confidently train here knowing that you will learn and work, without getting injured by poor training practices. Henry and KC always keep a watchful eye. They care very very much about you and your training experience. There are currently 11 trainers at the gym. They are all so warm and approachable! The way this gym does pad work is 4 rounds and each round with a different trainer. Everyone has a good attitude and they are all helpful. You can spar and clinch every session. For anyone who is brand new to sparring or clinching, this is the perfect place to start. The gym space is freaking beautiful. It is super spacious and is the cleanest, the freaking cleeeeeanest, and prettiest gym I have been to in phuket. Also, the bathrooms! Soooo big and so so clean. All this to say, GO TO YAK YAI. Go. I wish I had done so sooner. The vibes are immaculate. The owners run this gym with a lot of care and integrity, and they are always working to provide the best.
