I´ve trained at Hanuman for the last 5 years and learned so much in my time here. I love the gym´s focus on clinching (stand up wrestling) which has become my favourite part of muay thai. Hanuman is extremely accessible for newcomers to muay thai at the same time as producing some of the UKs top fighters (that you can train alongside). Don't worry about getting fit before you turn up, you can walk into this gym with no fitness and push yourself to a level you are comfortable with. The fundamentals classes often focus on distance control and footwork and clinch instead of long combinations of strikes, which provides a really good start in the sport. The head coaches Wojtek and Roan have developed a great blend of Thai and Western training styles and share so many different details each time they teach a technique. When visiting other gyms I am always reminded of the amazing quality of Hanuman´s coaching and training partners, even compared with gyms in Thailand. Hanuman is an exceptional gym that we are very lucky to have in Edinburgh.

I’ve trained here for nearly 2 years alongside my kids, and it’s the most respectful and supportive gym I’ve ever experienced. The coaching is incredibly high level — even for non-fighters — and you’re learning from genuinely skilled coaches and professional fighters. What makes this place special though is the culture. Everyone pushes each other to improve while still being kind, welcoming and respectful. As a woman and a parent, I feel safe and included here, and my kids have learned so much about discipline and respect through training. A seriously great gym with a genuinely good community behind it. ♥️

Fantastic Muay Thai classes for children! The coaches are professional, patient, and great with kids. The training is fun, engaging, and helps build confidence, discipline, and fitness. My child always looks forward to the classes and has learned so much. Highly recommended for any parent looking for a positive and supportive environment

Hanuman Thai Boxing has been one of the best things we have got our young son into. He has been here for 5 years now and has grown in confidence, self-discipline, and technique. The children are encouraged and praised for trying their best. The coaches are fantastic with the kids, and the younger lads who take the classes can personally relate to children and teenagers, as they are competitive in the sport themselves. There is room for progression if your child would like to compete, but there is absolutely no pressure. Well done, Hanuman, for building such a lovely club and for giving my child such valuable life skills.

Having experience with Muay Thai gyms and children’s classes across different European countries, I can honestly say that Hanuman Muay Thai stands at a very high level. The kids classes are exceptionally well organised, with a great balance between discipline, fitness, confidence building, and enjoyment. The coaches are professional, patient, and genuinely care about the development of each child, regardless of level or experience. What impressed me most compared to many clubs I’ve seen in other countries is the positive atmosphere and the way the instructors manage to combine strong technical teaching with a safe and supportive environment for children. Highly recommended for parents looking for quality Muay Thai training for their kids.
