What You’ll Master in Our Muay Thai Program
Land kicks, punches, elbows, and knees with real force. Every strike is drilled for precision and power — just like it’s taught in elite Thai gyms.
Build elite endurance, stamina, and total-body strength. These workouts push you hard and condition you like a fighter — not a fitness class regular.
Learn to block, counter, and stay calm when it counts. This isn’t sport-point sparring — it’s real-world Muay Thai for self-defense that holds up under pressure.
This training tests you. You’ll sharpen your focus, stay composed under stress, and build the kind of mental grit most people never reach.
Elite Muay Thai, Proven Results
Burke’s Muay Thai delivers authentic Thai training, crafted from over 31 years studying in Thailand’s top gyms. Led by Kru Dechsakda Sitsongpeenong, a champion from Bangkok’s Sitsongpeenong and PK Saenchai gyms, our program builds real fighters and empowers beginners. This is Muay Thai as it’s meant to be — intense, effective, and transformative for all who train.
What to Expect at Burke’s Muay Thai
You’ll be training at our Muay Thai gym in Providence, where the focus is on hard work and real results. Every class is built to push your limits — mentally and physically. No mirrors, no fluff, no gimmicks. Just bags, pads, sweat, and discipline.
Classes are led by a Thai champion instructor with decades of experience. You’ll learn real Muay Thai — not westernized fitness routines. Expect technical striking, clinch work, counters, and combinations that come straight from Bangkok’s top fight camps.
You don’t need a background in martial arts. But you do need to show up ready to work. Whether you’re just starting out or already have experience, our program meets you where you are — and drives you to improve.
Not for Casual Workouts
This isn’t a watered-down gym class. Burke’s Muay Thai is for people ready to train hard — to push limits, learn real fighting skills, and level up through authentic Thai-style Muay Thai. If you’re here to get serious, you’re in the right place. If you’re not — don’t waste your time.
The Alternative vs. Burke’s Muay Thai
Most gyms and cardio classes push workouts — not fight training. You’ll burn calories, sure, but you won’t walk away with anything you can actually use to protect yourself.
You get the same circuit every day, no progression, no depth. No fight IQ, no technical coaching — just noise and movement.
Plenty of programs teach flashy combos that fall apart under pressure. No clinch work. No real striking. No clue how violence actually works.
You might get tired, but you won’t get better. No structure. No long-term development. Just sweat, soreness, and a plateau.
You show up. You train. You leave. Nobody knows your name. Nobody holds you accountable. It’s reps without purpose — and you’re on your own.co
We teach real Muay Thai in Providence, built for power, technique, and application. This isn’t cardio kickboxing — it’s striking with a purpose.nte
Every class follows a clear path. Whether you’re a beginner or experienced, you get tailored coaching that challenges and progresses you.nt
From clinch work to counters, what you learn here holds up. Muay Thai for self-defense, for the ring, or for life — it’s all built into the system.
You’ll track growth. Improve endurance. Sharpen skills. Get tougher — mentally and physically — and actually see the results.
This isn’t just a class — it’s a fight team, even if you never step into a ring. You’ll train alongside people who show up with grit, drive, and zero excuses.
🥊 Muay Thai That Builds Real Strength and Skill
Train with purpose. Strike with power. Build something that lasts.
At Burke’s Martial Arts, our Muay Thai training for adults isn’t about trends — it’s about showing up and doing the work. Every class is built on powerful striking, fight conditioning, and high-pressure drills that forge real strength and grit.
You’ll build:
- Knockout power with kicks, knees, elbows, and punches
- Agility and control that holds up under pressure

This isn’t a fitness class. It’s a Muay Thai program in Providence that builds fighters — even if you never step into a ring.
🔥 Burn Fat. Build Muscle. Fight Smarter.
You don’t need another workout. You need something that works.

- Explosive combos that push your pace and gas tank

If your mind’s scattered, Muay Thai clears it. Simple.
🛡️ Muay Thai That Hits Like It Should
Muay Thai was built to fight. We teach it that way.
This isn’t fluff or theory. At Burke’s, we teach real Muay Thai, led by a Thai champion who trains adults in the same methods used in Bangkok’s top fight camps.
You’ll learn how to:
- Use all eight limbs — elbows, knees, punches, kicks — with intention
- Stay calm and move with purpose under pressure
- Execute with speed, precision, and control in every round
No gimmicks. No choreography. Just hard training, sharp technique, and real results.
Every round forces you to focus, react, and push through fatigue. This training doesn’t just test your body — it builds mental grit and focus that lasts.
You’ll fix sloppy posture and tighten your mechanics. From footwork to clinch control, Muay Thai sharpens how you move — with balance, power, and control.
Speed and precision aren’t optional. You’ll train your reflexes to fire fast, your body to move smarter, and your strikes to land hard — when it counts.
This isn’t guesswork. You’ll follow a clear routine that keeps you locked in, progressing, and improving every week. No fluff. No wasted reps.

Burke’s is an awesome place to train. The instructor’s are extremely knowledgeable and kind, and they aren’t afraid to challenge you and get you out of your comfort zone. I gained in immense amount of confidence in the short time I was able to train, and even though my current schedule does not allow me to continue I would pick it up again in a heartbeat. Go for it! 😊
Awesome experience and a great workout!
The sence of family at Burkes is just one of the elements that makes it so special. each member and instructor have such great respect for each other, and everyone is always willing and wanting to help you improve. All of the instructors have amazing experience and each class you are able to improve due to their coaching. Overall this is the best martial arts center in the state!
Awesome place. Awesome people. I only started a month ago, but I am so happy to be part of it. Mr. Burke and coach Ian are absolutely amazing, they have a lot of patient to teach you and actually wanna make sure you are doing it right. I was so shy at the beginning because everyone looks so good and professional, but then I noticed how everyone was so welcomed and how Muay Thai is not something only about fight but about focus as well. Best place to challenge yourself and change your lifestyle (at least is changing mine). Out of my comfort zone, making me improve everyday a little bit, enjoying every class annnnnd losing some weight lol.
Loved it! Thanks for bringing me back to a happy fitness life!
Burkes Martial Arts was not only a gym to me, but a second home. The gym is kept clean and is very sanitary. All of the instructors made me see and understand the true potential that I had. Burkes Martial Arts takes time to work with every single one of their students to ensure that they get better not only at Martial Arts, but also as a person. This gym deserves more than 5 stars in my opinion.
I've always wanted to train muay thai but was never really able to find a gym that specialized in that form of training. Then I found Burkes and I'll tell you, I was not disappointed. I absolutely love it. the staff is amazing, the students are dedicated and some really amazing people, and I definitely cant argue with the results I've been getting and feeling. I look forward to training there for a long time
Burke's Muay Thai program is awesome. Classes offer a great balance of conditioning and technique work. Instructors are extremely knowledgeable and detail-oriented but also make the class welcoming for students of all levels.
I have trained martial arts most of my life and Muay Thai since 2012. I highly recommend this gym!
Had a great time! Positive atmosphere and knowledgeable staff.
My son went to Burkes for six month's he had a very good experience with the classes. He would always come back home happy and existed. The thing that he liked the most was that the teacher would teach the students with a lot of patience and they would try to motivate the student to work on the new skill's. I would highly recommend more people to sign up for Burkes martial arts it will teach you how discipline yourself.
Best Muay Thai gym in Providence, hands down! The classes are on time and well structured. The instructors make classes challenging and fun. Along with directing the class they’ll also work to develop each individual according to their ability.
Burke’s is a great choice no matter your skill level. Highly recommend.
