Muay Thai

The Boxing and Muay Thai is literally the best in the area, lightyears ahead of anywhere else I looked.
— Ed Baliton

Muay Thai, often referred to as the “Art of Eight Limbs” for its utilization of punches, kicks, elbows, and knees, has quickly emerged as the preferred striking-based discipline for most professional Mixed Martial Artists.

Recently granted provisional recognition as an Olympic sport, Muay Thai is poised to become even more popular than it already is. Beacon Mixed Martial Arts has the oldest and longest-running Muay Thai program in South Jersey, boasting a lineage in Thai Boxing that is rooted in competition at both the amateur and professional level.

The Muay Thai classes are filled with people from all walks of life, partly because they were designed to be beginner-friendly. Our athletes range from white collar professionals looking for stress relief to stay-at-home parents... looking for stress relief. There are often current amateur and professional fighters in many of our classes as well.
