Intimate space, great (by great I mean coaching, motivating, experienced, committed) coaches. I went back to back days and the same awesome experience. These guys take pride in what they do. They welcomed me, got me started, fixed flaws without over-coaching, and pushed me when I needed it. All ages and genders were there, too.

This gym is legit and teaches traditional Muay Thai in a one-of-a-kind hands on experience. My son absolutely loves going to class and is so passionate because of the wonderful experience he has in every class. Owner & Coach Chris Clodfelter is super knowledgable, personable & helpful. Kids coach John is amazing with the children and has fresh drills & techniques he teaches each week. We absolutely love this place.

Started the Brazilian Jiu Jitsu class with absolutely no martial arts experience. Chris and the other coaches are excellent instructors, and everyone at the gym is super encouraging.

This place deserves more than 5 stars, felt welcome from the first day I showed up at the Gym. Chris (Lead Instructor and Owner) is enthusiastic and passionate about teaching what he loves, and he does a great job of it! All the other instructors are really great too, they are very approachable, and are always looking to help! Can't thank Chris, Eric, Joel, and all the other instructors enough for helping me over the last few months!

Was able to train here under Kru Chris Clodfelter off and on from mid/late 2012 up until almost the start of 2013, and coming from a background of never having trained in martial arts before, I was incredibly impressed and appreciative of his help and instruction. I was very grateful for the instruction I received throughout my training and for his continued advice on ways I could be improving, and for the patience he showed with each of his students. I must admit that I have been impressed with not only the kind of Muay Thai teacher that he was, and continually is, but he is also a man of integrity and is a mighty good example to those around him. I would absolutely give this gym and instructor 5 stars, any day. Thanks Chris!

The most authentic Muay Thai in the Triad. I have personally brought many people here to train, Chris is a really knowledgeable guy and great with kids.

One of the best experiences of my college career. You get some of the best instruction in the country and you feel a part of the Eight Points family at the same time. There is not better place to get in shape and learn the art of Muay Thai.
