Five Points Academy

"Five Points Academy is the best gym / martial arts school I've ever been a part of. The dedicated staff / instructors / owners are top shelf. The facility is clean and well kept up by a great cleaning staff. They offer a variety of martial arts disciplines. Pekiti Tirsia Kali, Judo, BJJ and Muay Thai. They also have kettle bell classes, mobility classes and an open gym with weights and cardio machines. Depending on the package you sign up for you can get involved in all of them. The class schedules are terrific. Whether you want to get in shape, lose weight, learn a discipline or you just come to hang out with Boris the gym dog, Five Points is your new spot! It's a terrific community."

"I've been coming here for almost 2 years. This place has great instructors and class sizes are fairly small to allow for personalized feedback. The place is always kept very clean and they have a well-equipped weight room. The Muay Thai and Brazilian Jiu Jitsu programs are very strong and everyone (coaches, teammates, front desk staff and cleaning staff) is very supportive and welcoming. They also offer Judo and Kali instruction as well as calisthenics and kettlebell classes. Swing by and check out FPA!!"

"Five ( 5 ) Points Academy is the premiere Thai boxing, Judo, / martial arts fighting gym in Manhattan / NYC. They have a good selection of weights and machines for conditioning as well. The three owners have a combined 100yrs experience in fighting and training others to compete (*or fight like you could). I'm an 'og' member and have attribute most of my strength and all of my fighting skills to Five Points. They have a small unassuming ground floor presence - BUT the lower level is a cavernous , volumetric fight club :)"

"I have been in several Muay Thai schools in Manhattan. This school is by far the most complete and the most professional. The coaches have excellent pedagogy, the class schedule is the most precise and complete in Manhattan, and the students are mostly friendly and welcoming."

"Five Points Academy is located in lower Manhattan and close to several subway stops making it easy to get to - The B, D, J, 4 and 6 are a short walk away. When I went I was greeted by the very nice Nadia who was working the front desk. She was super helpful as was instructor Gianna Smith. Smith helps manage the two story gym and is very experienced. She's trained out of the very technical Sitjaopho gym in Hua Hin Thailand and has fought for the USMF (United States Muay Thai Federation) on several occasions. She picked up a gold medal in the 2017 Pan American games and has a solid amount of experience in the states and Thailand. The facility opens up with a small pro shop and then a kettlebell area. Behind it is the locker rooms which have showers!!! Downstairs is another strength and conditioning area along with several treadmills. The area has a full bag area, ring, and area for jiu jitsu. There are plenty of locker rooms to store your stuff. I was able to take a class with Steve Milles, one of the head instructors at the gym. An experienced fighter and coach he ran the class through some solid pad work. Afterwards he led a fight team training that went super smooth, no egos, and no bumps or bruises. Price wise I think it is a reasonable $250 a month with recurring billing. If you go three to four times a week the membership more than pays for itself. Good instruction. Nice clean facilities. Solid people. Five Points is a great Muay Thai gym in NYC."
