Kickstart your training with the best Muay Thai essentials, from gloves to shin pads

Muay Thai is one of the most dynamic and intense sports around, and it’s no surprise that it's growing in popularity.

In London, you can find everything from fitness-driven sessions to serious fight gyms. If you're a beginner learning the ropes, there are specialist classes at gyms such from Nuffield Health to Gymbox, which is where I started, as it is a little less intimidating. Or you can fine-tune your technique at a more advanced school like Fight City Gym and Fightzone for example.
