Sukhumvit Posted February 12, 2007 Report Share Posted February 12, 2007 Hi! Anyone got experience of training at this facility? Is it any good? :thumbup: :thumbdown: I quite like the idea that there are tennis courts. Don't ask me why I just think that adds a little something to a sports complex. Plus they've got gym classes led by chicks named Noi and Nit. Not that I think extracurricular activities are on the agenda. So come on sports loving hotel staying chaps. Fess up. Enquiring minds want to know. :hubba: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old Hippie Posted February 12, 2007 Report Share Posted February 12, 2007 Yes, trained there 2 times, when I went down to watch Noong Toom fight. It is o.k. The facility in Bangplee is more hard core Muay Thai. I train at Fairtex in SFO, and many top UFC fighters come through. They have something going for them...but are still a bit " corporate" to many people. The camp I and 1-2 others like is Jitti Gym in BKK. There was another place in Pattaya, but I think Fairtex bought them out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sukhumvit Posted February 16, 2007 Author Report Share Posted February 16, 2007 Thanks geezer, will check them out in the next few days. Looking to do something other than sit on beach or in beer bar all day. Don't know if I'd stay there though. Seems a little pricey for Pattaya - 1500 - and wouldn't imagine it guest friendly. But I could be wrong and often am. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old Hippie Posted February 16, 2007 Report Share Posted February 16, 2007 You can just pop in and train for a few sessions...I think something like 400bht a session...I think you can also get a training package without accomodation. Nice place, and say hi to Nong Toom for me! There are still a few other camps there, that might be fun to try, as they'd be more Thai/hard core. Contact Sileakhunt for more info. You can get accomodation close by, for a lot less than 1500, and it would be guest friendly as well! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toucanzoo Posted February 16, 2007 Report Share Posted February 16, 2007 This place is some where I have wanted to try for a while but I have bnever got round to it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old Hippie Posted February 16, 2007 Report Share Posted February 16, 2007 Like I said, if you are serious about Muay Thai, then try the Fairtex camp in Bangplee, or Jitti Gym in BKK. Different than night and day, but Jitti is a hard core camp with very good trainers. Maybe we should have a board Muay Thai tournament? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sukhumvit Posted February 17, 2007 Author Report Share Posted February 17, 2007 Maybe we should have a board Muay Thai tournament? Unfortunately I float like a bee and sting like a butterfly. But I'm happy to watch if you don't mind voyeurism. I'll hold your coat. :thumbup: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toucanzoo Posted February 17, 2007 Report Share Posted February 17, 2007 Jitti Gym, is it a camp or do you have to arrange your own hotel etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old Hippie Posted February 17, 2007 Report Share Posted February 17, 2007 Jitti Gym is a camp, and they do have food and accomodation available on sight. It is a very basic camp, it is for serious minded Muay Thai practicioners...and guys like me. He has produced many champion fighters, and trained many fighters from around the world. For my money, it is the best camp in Bangkok...I think the level of training is better than Fairtex...with maybe 1-2 exceptions...(trainer wise). Have a look... http://www.jittigym.com/ I'll dig out some pictures from both places later, and post them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
