Fantastic experience: This is a true Muay Thai gym. The coach is from Thailand, so he knows what he’s teaching (unlike in some other gyms). He and Mike focus on the technical aspects while also ensuring that you feel happy and confident. Very happy to be here

Fantastic experience: The closest experience to Thai camp you can find in Cairns. Trainers are nice and gives knowledge. Training every 6/7 Best teammates almost all fighters and with good experience. Recommend 100% I’ve tried couples of gym before signing into Nukzu.

Fantastic experience: I did the MUAY THAI FITNESS classes with NUKZU for a couple of years and I think it was probably the fittest/leanest I have been in my life. I have tried a few gyms since but I still think NUKZU was the best, trainers were great and I miss the solid work outs. Install some BIG ASS(brand name) industrial fans on the ceiling and I will be back in a heartbeat(I am too old to put up with wet season heat and humidity now!)

Negative experience: Bad environment. Don’t cater for lefty’s. Be careful as it’s direct debit and you can’t cancel after one session meaning your locked in and won’t get your money back. Poor ventilation no aircon units.Highly don’t recommend it. Save your money not worth going to this facility.

Hi Sophia,

I’m sorry you had a bad experience at our gym however you trained one day in a contracted course for beginners then demanded we find a left handed person for you to train with which we explained that we unfortunately weren’t able to do as there were none at your level. We did offer you other options including instruction on how to train as a left handed individual however you requested that we not instruct you and were not willing to try.

After the first session you asked for instructors to give you less instruction, second session you demanded we find you a left handed person to train with.. and then you demanded we stop your payments and as we said you took a spot in the course and signed the contract. Once the course starts we can no longer find another person to fill your spot.. that is why we have a contract in place for this particular course.

It is a lesson for you to read contracts in future.. however we are open and honest to anyone that signs up saying this particular course is a 6 month locked in contract.

That being said, we have two world champion fighters at our gym who are left handed, one of them who is a trainer at our gym who teaches left handed techniques.

We also do not promote the gym as an air-conditioned facility.

We do offer memberships with no lock-in contract however you opted to sign up for a 6 month course without trialing the gym to see if you enjoyed the sport first and were unwilling to learn the material.

Fantastic experience: Currently doing the Naught2Taught course. Absolutely loving it and learning a lot.

Fantastic experience: I trained at Nukzu Muay Thai gym for about five years, and it was amazing. The head coach, Boy, is not only really good at Muay Thai but also super funny. He made every session fun, even though we were learning serious stuff. What’s cool about Nukzu is they teach Muay Thai the way they do it in Thailand, with lots of clinching and knees, not just punching and kicking. And everyone there, especially the experienced fighters, are really friendly and helpful. I had some tough but fun sparring sessions and learned a lot from them. Besides the training, I loved hanging out with the other students. It was like a little community where we all helped each other get better. Even though I’ve moved away now, I’ll always remember my time at Nukzu fondly. If you’re looking for a great Muay Thai gym where you’ll learn a lot and have a blast doing it, I definitely recommend Nukzu.

Fantastic experience: This is the best place in Cairns to train Muay Thai. The trainers are second to none with a wealth of knowledge and experience to cater for people of all levels. Everyone in the gym is friendly and you're treated like family. I continue to train at Nukzu after completing the comprehensive Naught2Taught course. I highly recommend the 22 week course for anyone looking to begin their Muay Thai journey. I cannot say enough good things about this place.

Fantastic experience: Been training with Boy and Nukzu for over a year and a half. Amazing crew, fully inclusive. The crew are very attentive with training and teaching their skills and wealth of knowledge, you just need to listen. The atmosphere is amazing, accepting and friendly. Good mix of orthodox and south paw fighters to learn from and spar with.

Fantastic experience: Our 11 years old son is training at nukzu and we found the team absolutely amazing. Boy is a pro, very funny guy but at the same time so professional. He is also great with kids. Lately my son is training with Michael and again he's amazing with young teenagers. He helps them on every aspect trying to teach the discipline properly focusing on techniques. Definitely one of the best coach around for that age. Prices are reasonable considering the amount of effort and time they put on kids. Absolutely recommended!
