This ensures you're getting the support and feedback you need to improve from the start!

Q: Is there Full Contact Sparring in the first intro or all-level classes?

A: Absolutely NOT! No sparring in the First Intro Class or any of the all-level classes. We focus on learning, safety, and challenge for all levels. We understand many people would like to embrace the sport of Muay Thai without the full contact of sparring!

Sparring is for those actively competing for Diamond and is invite-only. But don’t worry if you would like to experience sparring without the expectation of competition—once you’re ready, we hold a monthly Open Sparring session where all intermediate members are welcome, this pop-up session is learning how to spar in a collaborative and playful environment - negative aggression will never be tolerated at Diamond!


Q: What if I want to compete?

A: If you're thinking about competing, we’ve got you covered! Our coaches will guide you through advanced training and conditioning. Competing takes time, commitment, and dedication, and you must have the time to commit to it fully! Please be aware acceptance into competition classes is by invite only and is at the discretion of Diamonds Head Coach. If you have questions about how to join Competition Class please chat with us in the gym!


Q: What if I’m not very fit?

A: We’ve got you covered! We provide gloves and all the necessary equipment for your first class. When you become a member, you’ll get your own gear upon sign up to start training.


Q: How early should I arrive for my first class?

A: Arriving about 10 minutes early is perfect! You’ll have time to check in, meet your coach, and get settled before class begins.


Q: How often can beginners attend classes?

A: You can train as often as you'd like, depending on your membership! We recommend starting with 2-3 classes a week to get the hang of things, but feel free to go at your own pace!


Q: Are there age limits for classes?

A: Our adult classes are typically for ages 17 and up. We also have kids' classes for ages 7-11 and 12-16! Reach out for more details on age-specific programs. We have a diverse range of ages in the All-Level Adult classes - please do not let your age limit you!

Q: What is the class atmosphere like?

A: Our classes are friendly, supportive, and full of energy! You’ll work alongside people at different skill levels, but everyone’s focused on improving themselves. We foster a positive and encouraging environment where you can leave your ego at the door while being challenged.


Q: Who are Muay Thai classes for?

A: Muay Thai classes are for anyone looking to get fitter, learn new skills, self-defense, or train for competition. You don’t need any prior experience—our classes cater to all levels. Whether you’re new to fitness or an experienced athlete, our coaches will help you progress at your own pace!


Q: Should I be intimidated to try a class?

A: Of course everyone is a bit intimidated when they start anything new. Everyone starts at zero, and our classes are designed to be welcoming, and challenging. Just give it a try—our coaches and community aim to help you feel at home.


Q: What if I feel overwhelmed during my first class?

A: Feeling overwhelmed is completely normal! It’s actually a great sign that you’re learning something new. Our coaches are here to guide you through it, and you’ll feel more comfortable as you continue. Remember, Muay Thai is a journey—take it at your own pace!


Q: I’m worried about being a beginner in a class full of people with experience?

A: We totally get it! Starting something new will feel intimidating, but we make sure you’re always supported. In regular classes (outside of the intro session), you’ll be paired with someone of similar experience and height so you can learn at your own pace.

Our experienced members and coaches are always there to offer help and encouragement without judgment, ensuring you feel comfortable and confident. Everyone started at zero, and we’re here to guide you through your journey!


Q: Do you offer a grading system at Diamond Muay Thai?

A: Traditional Muay Thai training in Thailand has never followed a formal ranking or grading system like the belts seen in martial arts such as karate or Brazilian jiu-jitsu. The emphasis has always been on developing skill, gaining fight experience, and showing respect for the art. Muay Thai practitioners earned their status through their experience in the ring and their performance, gaining recognition and respect from coaches, peers, and the community.

In recent years, however, some gyms outside of Thailand—along with a few within the country—have introduced a ranking system to provide a different progression, particularly in Western countries. These modern grading systems are not part of traditional Muay Thai culture.

At Diamond Muay Thai, we continue to focus on the traditional focus of skill, experience, and respect over formal rankings. We do not use a grading system but are always looking for ways to evolve and improve the training experience. Our main goal is to help you master the techniques, build resilience, and enhance your fitness and life, all while progressing at your own pace.


We look forward to seeing you on the mats!
