My wife and I have been members since they first opened and if it weren’t for moving out of IL - We’d still be there. JJ and his coaches create a safe, fun and very informative environment to learning Muay Thai. The members are amazing and also very helpful to help newer students. This academy is great for weight loss, confidence, self defense, or competitive prep. Overall world class authentic gym - try 1 class and you’ll be hooked.

Basically one of my favorite spots now and they've got me obsessed with muy thai boxing, which I'm extremely grateful for. The owner, instructors, and members are all very friendly and welcoming. Thought I'd be too busy to attend more than once a week, but I find myself prioritizing these classes over everything else lol. Thank you guys and keep up the good work!

This place is awesome! I was out of shape before coming to CTBA and the crew here is so welcoming and the place is super clean kept! My body has transformed and I am getting back to HS shape. I burn about 900-1200 calories a work out with these guys!
trust me. do the free class and it will have been the best investment of your life.

I have been taking classes for about two month here and I am very excited I gave it a try. Which bring me to first thing I like - free trial class. Theres free parking in that area and I usualy able to find parking spot easily on a same block. Management does what they can to keep it safe in these Covid times. Everyone gets their temperature checked before entering. Changing rooms and bathrooms are nice and clean. Theres also plenty of lockers. No shortage of equipment and its in a very good condition. Other thing I like is that they have many coaches. So you get a variety of styles in teaching

Having been at Chicago Thai Boxing Academy, for three weeks, I can gladly say JJ and his team are not only friendly, but will work you. Their adult fundamentals class has been a fun and high energy experience. Not having previous experience has not been an issue, as they are ready and willing to help anyone to understand the technique. Anyone interested should definitely take up their opportunity for a free class and find out for themselves! (:

I'm very happy here! As a beginner, the trainers have given me extra help even in a group setting. My experience so far is that, if you let them know about what's going on with you, they'll work with you.
I'd wanted to learn about Thai boxing for years, and I was very happy to find CTBA from a simple web search. I read info on their website and then had a look at reviews on Google and elsewhere. I was very happy to sign up for a free initial class, no issues at all. I thought I would go home and think about it (joining), but I knew right away that I'd found a good fit.
I really like the trainers

I currently have my 8 yr old daughter enrolled and have been happy since day 1 , the service is top notch , Joe at Front desk is at the forefront of service and had guided me into many future options for my child . JJ The owner strives to create the best environment for my kid along with all the kids there to learn and apply techniques in a fun and instructive way. Very rigorous training but for my kid she loves it :) . Very happy with the instructors and coaches :) . Would highly recommend this facility for any parent who wants their child to learn self defence and confidence

This gym has a strong and caring community. I’ve been training here for over 3 months and intend to train here as long as possible. The instructors and the owner make it a point to provide high quality training and take the time to support all of the trainees. Personally, I love that children are raised training here and it often feels like a family reunion watching the kids and parents enjoy the love of Muay Thai together. There’s something for everyone here- Couldn’t recommend it more!!!
