Our muay thai program in Nashville teaches muay thai, the art of eight limbs, to every level, first-timers included.
Our program focuses on providing a safe and supportive environment for participants to develop their muay thai skills, improve their physical fitness, and gain self-confidence.



Muay thai is a combat sport from Thailand that combines striking techniques using fists, elbows, knees, and shins. Muay thai is known for its power, its combinations, and its clinch work. Our program also builds the conditioning behind it: strength, endurance, and flexibility.
Participants will have opportunities to work with coaches and training partners, honing their strikes through pad drills and heavy bag sessions. This includes practicing combinations, defensive maneuvers, counters, and movement patterns. As students progress in their training, they will have the opportunity to engage in controlled sparring sessions and partner drills under the supervision of experienced coaches.
Nashville MMA Training Camp offers several different muay thai classes:
In this class, you'll learn the fundamental techniques, principles, and movements of muay thai. We focus on proper stance, basic strikes, footwork, and defensive techniques. You'll develop a solid foundation in muay thai while building strength, agility, and coordination.
Built for the intermediate student. We cover punches, kicks, knees, elbows, clinch work, and combinations, with progressions so everyone keeps improving.
In this class, we focus on refining technique, advanced combinations, defensive strategies, and fight-specific conditioning. Our instructors, who have extensive experience in the ring, provide in-depth coaching and insights into high-level muay thai techniques and tactics. This class is for fighters preparing to compete and for anyone who wants to go deeper into the art.

Muay Thai students need boxing gloves and shin guards, and a mouthguard is recommended for anyone who participates in sparring. Trial students and new members who have signed up within the last 2 weeks can use loaner gear for class. Gear is on a first-come, first-served basis for members.
Yes. Muay Thai combines punches, kicks, knees, elbows, footwork, defense, pad work, and conditioning. Training can improve cardio, power, coordination, and confidence while teaching practical striking skills.
Muay Thai traditionally uses punches, kicks, knees, elbows, and clinch work, which is why it is often called the Art of Eight Limbs. Kickboxing rules and training can vary by style, but often place less emphasis on elbows and extended clinch work. At Nashville MMA Training Camp, the Muay Thai program teaches a complete striking system with fundamentals through advanced training.
