  Legions Muay Thai, not just a gym with an all inclusive and friendly atmosphere, it’s a family. 11 Yrs we have been gym members, utilising the coaches expertise not only for 1:1 PT’s but also getting involved in weekly classes over at the well equipped and spacious facilities on Clifton Moor. Muay Thai whilst disciplined is also great fun, as a family we have all seen improvements in our fitness, confidence as well as mental health…the positive impact over the has been invaluable. Highly Recommend Dave & the Team

  ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ When my son Lucas joined Legions Thai Boxing three years ago, I had no idea just how much it would shape him — not only as a fighter, but as a young man. While many teenage boys drift into mischief in their school years, under Dave’s guidance Lucas found focus, discipline, and drive. What began as a hobby quickly became a true passion, and now, at just 16, he is preparing to fight for a British title. Legions has given him far more than fitness and technique. It has taught him resilience, self-belief, and respect. The gym truly feels like a family — welcoming, supportive, and filled with some of the most inspiring young people I’ve ever met. Boys and girls alike train with a maturity and determination that’s beyond their years, and it’s clear this environment is shaping them all into well-rounded, confident individuals. As parents, the teenage years can feel daunting, but I am endlessly grateful to Dave and Legions for the positive impact they’ve had on Lucas. Despite training almost daily (his choice — he absolutely loves it!), he excelled in his GCSEs, and I credit so much of that to the focus and determination instilled through his training. I’ll admit, I had misconceptions at the start — about Thai boxing, and even the type of people who might be involved. I couldn’t have been more wrong. The atmosphere is uplifting, the community is incredible, and seeing not just the boys but so many strong, talented young girls thriving there is nothing short of inspiring. Dave has created something truly special with Legions. I can’t recommend this gym enough — it’s more than just a place to train, it’s a place that builds character, confidence, and lifelong skills.

  When Mia first started at Legions Muay Thai, she was struggling with confidence and mental health after being teased at school mainly regarding her body shape. From the moment she joined the junior class, she felt supported and able to express herself without judgement. Dave and the team consistently encouraged Mia, from her first interclub to joining sparring and fitness sessions. The support she received—especially from the fight team—helped her build confidence, resilience, and motivation. Even during the toughest training, she was never left behind. Three years on, Mia is happy, healthy, confident, and driven. She now fights at 58kg, has taken part in two demos and four fights, winning all four, and has built strong friendships along the way. Muay Thai has become a family journey for us, bringing us closer together. We cannot recommend Legions Muay Thai highly enough. It has truly changed our lives for the better. Thank you to Dave, Will, Ian, and everyone at Legions Muay Thai for the incredible support and positive impact.

  Great gym. I came in from the US with a different style. The fighters were great and welcoming. Loved the atmosphere. I even got good kick from a world champ to remember the place by. If I lived here I would train here. One of the best I’ve been to.

  My daughter and grandchildren love this place. Both my grandchildren have visibly gained confidence learning Moi Thai in their respective classes (one aged 10 and the other aged 3) My daughter also enjoys the boxing classes and personal training. Its a very friendly team and make you feel welcome.
