About the Gym
An honest note about the profile: this is an MMA-first offering with strong Muay Thai inclusion, not a Muay Thai-only specialist. For anyone wanting to learn MMA with the striking foundation that Muay Thai provides — or BJJ alongside striking — this is a particularly strong fit. Reviews from parents specifically praise the kids' instruction; one parent of a six-year-old explicitly notes that the child is treated with patience and care. For pure Muay Thai purists wanting traditional ring-focused training, a Muay Thai-only gym will be a closer match. The Mount Lavinia location is in southern Colombo, accessible from Dehiwala. Given the coach-centered nature of this offering, the experience is heavily tied to Ajmal's availability and direct coaching style — which is exactly what reviewers consistently single out as the strength.

Head Coach
Ajmal Yakoob
Coach Ajmal Yakoob runs the program and is the primary point of contact for all instruction. Reviews consistently emphasize his patient teaching style, his attention to detail in correcting posture and technique mid-session, and his ability to adapt instruction to widely varying experience levels — from complete beginners to retired amateur Muay Thai fighters who explicitly note he still pushes them out of their comfort zone. He responds personally to most online reviews, suggesting a direct ongoing relationship with his student base.
