I had a great experience at Burning Spirits Muay Thai! The gym has an amazing vibe—clean, welcoming, and full of positive energy. What really stood out to me was the traditional Muay Thai feel of the training. Derek, the owner, brings authentic experience from Thailand, and it shows in the way he teaches and runs the gym. He’s incredibly knowledgeable, passionate, and made me feel right at home. Whether you’re a beginner or have experience, this is a great place to train. I’m definitely coming back! Highly recommend.

I recently started training at burning spirit Muay Thai and I’m having so much fun. The coaches are amazing they guide you through every technique and take the time to explain everything well. If you are thinking of giving it a shot you should 100 percent do it. The environment it’s friendly and full of great aura.

I’ve been a member of Burning Spirits since November 2024. Derek and his other coaches create a positive atmosphere where practitioners of all skill levels feel welcome. There is a built in sense of camaraderie. Every class I take I learn more about what I’m capable of and where I can improve. Whether you’re a seasoned boxer or new to martial arts, Burning Spirits has a spot for you.

I’ve been training here since October and it’s been such an awesome experience. Coach Derek and the team are fantastic instructors and it’s a very clean, welcoming environment. Feels like a community. Can’t get enough, highly recommend. Great tunes too. Shoutout to Coach Derek for creating an awesome space. Grateful I found it.

SIGN UP ASAP if you’re looking to improve your athleticism, discipline and health. I ditched only focusing on powerlifting to improve my health and mobility. I now feel explosive, dynamic as an athlete and comfortable with the idea of self defense situations. I came across the gym on a walk in the neighborhood and had a great first impression of the facilities and coaches. Clean, friendly, professional vibes and well maintained facility. After chatting with coach Derek, I took home a handout with information and looked into all of the details before scheduling my intro program. I’ve been now going to this gym for 5 weeks and I’m hooked. The vibes are great, there’s a wonderful balance between community, fun and serious training, and the facilities and coaches are incredible. Shout out to coach Derek for building something special in the fishtown / east Kensington community. If you’re someone who is thinking about checking it out, definitely do it and get ready for a big positive change in your life.
