Muay Thai in NYC

I know this was asked a bunch of times but here it goes again. Does anybody have an info or more like reviews of these two schools The Wat & Ultimate Gym. Thanks in advance...

Both have quality MuayThai instruction, but I've heard that many people do not like the management "style" of Ultimate Gym. I do not recall ever seeing any fighters from Ultimate competing in person, but I've seen quite a few from "The Wat" and they are damned fine fighters.

Take a trial class at each and see whose style suits you best.

Thanks! What do you mean by management style though?

I've heard LOTS of people say the owner is a jerk.

However, I also have to point out that I have never dealt with him, or even met him, so I can only suggest you check out both gyms and see which suits you best.

The school website is
http://www.ultimategymny.com

the trainer there fought and trained in thailand. dont know about management or management style. Two of the fighters there won belts recently at the usmta event which I guess can be checked at the usmta site.

I think the WAT gym is a good. I was going to go train there, but they teach boxing too and I'm already in a boxing gym and it would feel lil awkward going there to train.
