The training and techniques here come straight from Thailand , Sityodtong style. Relaxed, powerful and smooth. There are also biannual trips back to Thailand which is a one of a kind experience that you can’t get anywhere else. Worth every penny!

Absolutely legit training. Great instructor. Want to know where fighters go for advice on technique? You found it, Anurak Muay Thai. I will be visiting this gym as much as possible, even though I live 1.5 hours away. It is worth my time. Give it a try, you will not be disappointed!
