Chicago Thai Boxing Academy

"Was only able to go for a month for personal reasons, but awesome gym and staff. Very organized and its very easy to email erica and get a quick response. Training is very good."

"Great trainers, they provide tons of guidance and help if needed. They also create a fantastic environment by setting the right expectations with all members, front desk staff is also great and super helpful."

"Hands down great time and quality instructors! My work brings me around a lot of different cities- so finding quality locations to train is hard to come by. Immediately when walking in I was greeted and welcomed by friendly staff. I see plenty of people of all shapes and sizes....love it. The atmosphere is open and friendly. The gym itself is big and clean. I loved their front desk area and pro shop. The instruction during classes were awesome! I am always willing to learn new tips and tricks to make my game better - and man, the training itself is superb - the classes are superb. I love the sweat I get from their classes. I cannot go anywhere else when I'm in Chicago --- it's CTBA for me."

"My wife and I have been members since they first opened and if it weren’t for moving out of IL - We’d still be there. JJ and his coaches create a safe, fun and very informative environment to learning Muay Thai. The members are amazing and also very helpful to help newer students. This academy is great for weight loss, confidence, self defense, or competitive prep. Overall world class authentic gym - try 1 class and you’ll be hooked."

"I'm very happy here! As a beginner, the trainers have given me extra help even in a group setting. My experience so far is that, if you let them know about what's going on with you, they'll work with you. I'd wanted to learn about Thai boxing for years, and I was very happy to find CTBA from a simple web search. I read info on their website and then had a look at reviews on Google and elsewhere. I was very happy to sign up for a free initial class, no issues at all. I thought I would go home and think about it (joining), but I knew right away that I'd found a good fit. I really like the trainers. I like their focus on people finding their own rhythm. They also know how to motivate while keeping things light. Finally, JJ (owner) and his front desk staff set a very welcoming tone. They explained the terms and conditions (which I knew from reading their website), and they answered all my questions honestly. Looking forward to a great summer with the team!"
