About the Gym

Kops Gym is old-school Amsterdam in the best sense: raw, honest and unpretentious, with kickboxing taught at both recreational and competition level for over three decades. Reviewers describe it as 'purity, Amsterdam-style' — a no-nonsense place anchored by owner Bert, a 'no-nonsense hero of the old school' where everyone from beginners to advanced fighters feels at home. There's also boxing, wrestling and fitness, plus a sauna. It's a kickboxing- and boxing-led gym rather than a traditional Muay Thai room, but for character, accessibility and honest training without the gloss, it's hard to beat.
