Hello!!!

My name is Belinda and I have been teaching English in Korea for 4 years now and I also teach Muay Thai in Seoul. I come from a family of gyms called TaeWoong Muay Thai. There are 6 TaeWoong gyms in Seoul, 1 in Busan, 1 in Jeju, and our biggest gym is in Thailand.

I have just made a new website for those teachers living in Korea who want to train and get fit. I did my best to include clear maps and instructions of how to get to each gym and the prices each gym charges. You can browse the site for more information and photos. It is not 100% finished but I am working on it the best I can. Making a website is new to me so I am a bit slow! Anyway, it doesn't matter if you know Muay Thai or not. We teach beginners and fighters! If you wish to have a match here we can help with that too.

It is not easy making friends for some people who are new to Korea. Joining a Taewoong gym will not only get you fit but also help you meet Koreans and other foreigners. And unlike the boring gym you will have fun but still work up a good sweat!

Check out that link for more information. My contact details can be found on the site if you have any questions. Also please email me for a discount voucher. I am also a teacher for English so if you are new to Korea and have any questions please don't hesitate to ask me for help or advice!

So, why is your gym in Phuket twice as much as others there? I don't mean to sound rude, but if someone is going to pay over 30,000TB a month (versus 15,000TB for other gyms) what can you offer the others can't? I think that's a fair question.

Hi mate,

If you train at Sinbi you are not just recieving great high quality trainers but you are also gaining great connections to fight in tournaments around the world that a lot of other gyms can not offer. If you are serious about becoming a professional fighter then Sinbi is a great place to train for this reason. Sinbi is a K-1 champion and his gym is very professional. If you want to learn the fighting style and techniques of a champion fighter then paying more is your choice. I guess the best way to answer your question would be... try a few gyms out and then try Sinbi gym. I am sure you will satisfied with your choice. You will not get sleezy trainers hitting on you. This is a very strict gym that wants to promote your growth as a fighter.
