Here is what actual students and parents have to say about our Muay Thai program...


I had been taking other kickboxing classes while I was at university, however I wanted to keep working out while I was at home for the summer. I joined Martial Arts Planet after it was recommended to me by a friend and after only the first class I realized just how superior the level of skill, knowledge and expertise was compared to my previous gym. Khru Sweeney dedicates his time equally between every student no matter how good or poor they may be, which makes for the ultimate training experience. Nicholas V.

I have now been taking Muay Thai kickboxing lessons for approximately 9 months. From the moment I walked into your school I knew that I was dealing with complete professionals who genuinely care about their student’s progress.
Since beginning, I have been very impressed with the classes, and I feel that I am improving with every session through quality instruction. I have also had the opportunity to witness some of the classes involving small children, and the treatment and attention that each child receives is remarkable. I truly believe that both yourself and Khru Rebecca are not only trying to produce great martial artists, but great people.
I am also extremely impressed with your drive to improve your facilities and training through new equipment purchases and seminars with some of the world's greatest martial artists. It was because of the quality of the training that I decided to expand my study into Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu and again, the instruction is topnotch.
I feel that everyone at Martial Arts Planet goes the extra mile to make each student feel better about themselves and their abilities. And most importantly, everyone is made to feel like they are part of something important. Mike C.

The instructors at Martial Arts Planet combine two facets of teaching that are, unfortunately, rare amongst trainers. The first is an outstanding level of skill, knowledge, and expertise about their subject area. The second, and more difficult to find, is the ability to demonstrate and teach this skill to others. Most surprisingly is the fact that they do this for students at all levels of maturity, age, and skill. Not only do they challenge their students to excel, they empower them to do so. Excellent instructors and a great environment combine to deliver highly professional martial arts training for all students. Derek M.


For years, I've had a deep and genuine desire to learn about martial arts, but always lacked the confidence to try and kept making excuses to put it off. But finally, I summoned up the courage to face the unfamiliar and walked through the door of Martial Arts Planet. I had no idea what to expect and was immediately put at ease with very diplomatic and talented instructors in an atmosphere that so effortlessly breeds motivation, learning and mutual respect. I still can't believe how much I learn from each new class and how often I see people who possess so much skill behave in such a modest and humble way. Steve P.


Just over a year ago I was joking around with fellow employee's about how the car business seems to create a very short life for those who are in it. Like a lot of other areas of employment, there is a lot of stress; however, we added to that the lack of physical activity, irregular eating times, pizza diet, long hours, smoking etc. I think you get the point.
I decided to do something about it. Being one of those people who never seem to follow through on things that are good for me, I was hoping I could find something that I could stay with.
I called the school and set an appointment to view the facilities and meet the trainers. I always was interested in boxing, however being 46 and way out of shape, thought I could never be able to do an activity like that.
Signing up for one year of Thai kickboxing changed the way I think about my life. Not only do I notice what it has done for me physically but my mental approach to life is much better. Now when I am scheduling my time, I do so around the Thai class. I tell everyone it is the best thing I have ever done for me. Jim S.


Thai Boxing is a terrific martial art, especially for women who are interested in both self-defense and fitness. Since I started my confidence has soared. My training at this school has been a truly positive experience. Khru (instructor) Sweeney gives his students the personal attention they need while also encouraging interaction among the students in (and outside of) class. Eileen M.


Muay Thai has given me the to face greater and more difficult challenges... as well as the confidence to attack life long aspirations with a clear mind. Terry H.


I joined Thai Boxing at Martial Arts Planet in an attempt to get into shape without the boredom and monotony of the typical gym routine... I have met some fun and interesting people... attending Thai Boxing class has become the highlight of my week. Chris B.


While the training is delivered in a modernized atmosphere the traditional qualities and etiquette of the martial arts is still maintained - I think this is important. The training is always interesting, cutting edge, effective, challenging and most importantly, it is enjoyable. While I am thankful for the ability to train I too am thankful for the opportunity to train and at a high end calibre school with high end calibre instruction. Greg A.
