We foster a community environment, where health and fitness benefits promote positive lifestyle changes. When I joined Southside Muay Thai, the most notable quality that this gym possesses that others do not, is that they are not just a professional martial arts gym but also a family based business.
At Southside, they treat each and every client with the same kind, caring, honest and accepting attitude. Kar & Barry give 100% to their clients every single session. During training, they take time to assess who may need extra help in the room. They cater to each individuals needs and help everyone improve at their own pace.

A: I decided to give muay thai a go after I did a muay thai based class at a local gym. It was different to the style of training we do at the Southside but the basics were the same. The second reason is that I wanted to change the environment I was in, wanted to meet new people and do something different for a change.

I started coming to this club at the start of 2021 and it has been a journey. The positive energy and enthusiasm that everyone in the gym has is incredible. They not only encourage positive fitness goals but also encourage healthy emotional and mental well being. It's refreshing to be surrounded by such up lifting atmosphere. Truely happy that I took a chance with something new that aided me in my growth and journey in fitness as well as other aspects of my life. Grateful for Ben for constantly enforcing positive attitude, habits and mind set! If you are thinking of trying something new that not

For a business with one of the main principles being respect, they have absolutely no respect for their customers or Australian Consumer Laws. Asked for a refund and cancelled any subsequent billing for a 28 Day program via email because South Australia went into lockdown for a week due to COVID-19. Contract was specific date to specific date and they broke it. Haven’t heard back from them at all. DO NOT SIGN UP WITH THEM.

Southside is a place with an amazing community and super friendly staff. In the 8 months I've been at southside I have made multiple new friends and really fallen in love with Muay thai.
The intense training and super helpful trainers have also helped me to lose nearly 30kgs in a short period of time and totally changed my work ethic and outlook towards fitness!

I've been a member of the Southside family for more than 6 years now. I couldn't speak more highly of the coaches and facilities. Given that training at Southside has had such a positive impact on my physical health and wellbeing I would recommend to anyone to give it a try. However, as a school teacher I have to admit that learning martial arts is the FIRST thing I suggest to parents and families of children who are struggling within realms of education. Respect, concentration, confidence, assertiveness and self-regulation are just a few benefits your child will experience at Southside. Baz, Kar

I have trained in many gyms in many countries from Europe, USA, South America to the Asia Pacific region, and I am delighted to confirm:
This gym rates among the best in the world! Their terms and conditions are clear and simple to understand and the owners work very hard to be flexible to work in with their client’s schedules....
The training I have received during the past (almost) one year has been world class. I feel fitter & healthier than I have felt for some time. The programs offered are not just about training and techniques, but the well being of the whole person...they care about
