    Bill Judd opened KO Kickboxing over thirty years ago. In that time he has trained the likes of…read moreMadonna, Pink and numerous World Champions. KO is a force in Muay Thai boxing and the Bethnal Green gym is well respected. Training is physically demanding and respect must be shown at all times, to instructors and fellow students. In return for your hard work, the gym operates like a family and you can expect vociferous support if you take the ultimate challenge and fight for the club. You will never be pushed to fight though and Thai boxing is a sensational way to keep fit and build self-confidence. KO is a full-time gym. It is open everyday and along with the full size boxing ring, you'll find kick bags and all the equipment you need to get started.

    This is a great gym to study Muay Thai. The only reason I…read morestopped goin to this place was because my new job clashed with the gym time table. The instructor here is called Bill. I don't know much about his professional career, but I know he was a champion muay that fighter, and he is a good teacher. One tip from me if you start to go here regularly is invest in your own equipment! In the beginning I did not have my own gloves, so I had to use their public gloves.... they were all sweat drenched, and trust me, it takes ages before you can wash the stench of sweat off your hands! Same goes for the shin guard... they were so wet with sweat that they soaked through my nike jogging bottoms! Also, be careful if ur a newbie. It seems that Bill makes it a point to "demonstrate" on newbies, showing them how powerful Muay Thai is by using his "weak" left leg to kick you "lightly" on your arm... hurts pretty bad! lol. But dnt worry, we have all been there... its like a right of passage.

    Nice gym, facilities and location. But absolutely obnoxious BJJ instructor. I did a trial class…read morehere. Recall the scene in the film Fight Club, where they hurl abuse at new recruits to test their dedication. I imagine that's what the instructor here believes is happening in his head, minus any charisma. There are better options in the same area: Fight City Gym further down the same road, for example.

    After having some travel issues I arrived at 7:17 for the 7:15 class, I got there as the class was…read moregetting underway so I waited on the side to not disturb it as I was at fault. After about 10mins the instructor came over and asked me to take a seat and wait while he got class underway and thought about what to do. I then proceeded to wait the length of the class with no interaction. While I was waiting a regular student arrived and joined in. The class ended and I thought this would be my chance to explain and chat to the instructor. Unfortunately not after walking around for a couple of minutes the instructor proceeded to call over a purple belt to roll. So after waiting over an hour I took this as my cue to leave. The gym looked good and the class looked intense with students being yelled at to get into better positions or do burpees/push ups if they lost positions in the specific sparring. But the encounter left me feeling very underwhelmed and I won't be back.

    I have spent about 5 years training in Taekwon Do over in Hove. I have constantly been bugging…read moreflatmates and friends to come train in the martial ways, usually to limited response. Thankfully, I finally saw some light at the end of the tunnel with a flatmate who had trained in a little amateur boxing. Now he was wanting something a little more akin to his fighting background, so we decided to go try out a session at kicks. Rather than my usual school hall venue, kicks boasts a proper ring and is a permanent feature of Lewis road. This is especially relevant if you choose to train in kick boxing or Muay Thai. The established feel does create a 'proper' training environment. Beginners are grouped together according to grade and you are expected to work up the syllabus and belt gradings no matter what your prior martial experience. With the kick boxing or Muay Thai there is some leeway on this. For beginners, this is a very good approach and means that less fit or confident initiates won't feel 'kicked' out of the dojo or be intimidated by more proficient adepts. There is also a wide range of classes for children and this dojo is an excellent place to teach some of the honourable sides of etiquette that you wouldn't find inn the school classroom. Whilst you will have to buy some equipment and insurance, there is only a base membership fee then you can pay as you go per lesson, or take advantage of some direct debit offers. I would say that it is well worth checking out the extensive website that has a very good timetable of when classes occur for the different grades and age ranges. Sadly, I was still committed to my Taekwon Do training when I went, so I did not keep up my sessions. Also, my flatmate fell into the response that all my other friends did and stopped going (his loss!). I have since taken a step back from TKD and when I return to renting in Brighton I would make this dojo my first point of call to resume my martial arts journey.
