Kiatphontip Gym
Two sessions a day Monday to Saturday, 07:00 to 09:00 and 15:30 to 18:00, with Sunday off. Mornings run, shadow box, work the bags and pads and finish on conditioning, with boxing and sparring on Monday, Wednesday and Friday. Afternoons add up to an hour of clinch. The private line stays blank because the camp publishes no private rate. The nightly room line stays blank because a room is only sold inside a Train and Stay package with training and two meals a day: a week is 8,900, two weeks 16,500, three weeks 24,000, a month 31,000 and three months 87,000 in a standard room, and 10,000, 18,000, 26,000, 32,000 and 90,000 in a deluxe room. Training without a room runs 400 a session, 700 for two sessions in one day, 4,000 a week, 7,000 for two weeks, 12,000 a month and 23,000 for two months.
Luktupfah Muay Thai
The month line stays blank because the one month unlimited is quoted on request rather than published, and there is no week product at all: the packs are ten classes for 3,500 valid three months, fifteen for 5,000 valid four months and twenty for 6,000 valid five months. A class is 500 for an adult and 250 for a child under ten, and a private is 1,500 an hour for an adult or 750 for 45 minutes for a child. Krabi Krabong is 1,500 a lesson booked in advance, and Muay Boran is sold as a course or a private rather than by the class. The nightly room line stays blank because the residential rate is quoted as a room and training together, 1,200 a day or 28,000 a month with every class included.
Against the country
They quote the same figure on 3 lines: sessions a day, rooms on site and takes beginners.

In their own words
What each camp is
Kiatphontip Gym
A family camp on the quiet western edge of Bangkok, running since 2008, where visitors train in the same two sessions as the resident Thai fight team and a room is sold inside the stay rather than by the night. Suits someone who wants a small camp and a fixed daily rhythm more than someone who wants to be in the middle of the city.
The full record for Kiatphontip GymLuktupfah Muay Thai
A Bangkok school that teaches Muay Boran and Krabi Krabong alongside Muay Thai and certifies krus, which makes it the one camp on this list where the draw is the older material rather than a fight team. Two group sessions a day out in Prawet, rooms on site, and the traditional courses sold as private or course blocks rather than drop in.

What people ask about Kiatphontip Gym and Luktupfah Muay Thai
- Is Kiatphontip Gym or Luktupfah Muay Thai cheaper?
- Kiatphontip Gym, on the line most trips are booked on. A single group session is 400 baht there against 500 baht at Luktupfah Muay Thai, a gap of 100 baht. A cheaper month is not a cheaper trip. Food, a room where the camp has none and the flight home all sit outside these figures, and a camp that is 2,000 baht dearer a month is the cheaper of the two the moment it saves you a daily taxi.
- What is the difference between Kiatphontip Gym and Luktupfah Muay Thai?
- One of the 4 lines both camps publish comes out different: a single group session. They match on how many sessions a day run, whether there are rooms on site and whether beginners are taken. Kiatphontip Gym publishes a week of unlimited training and a month of unlimited training, and Luktupfah Muay Thai publishes a private session. What separates two camps on the mats is the trainer you get put with, and no camp publishes that. Use the lines above to cut the list down, then ask both.
- Is Kiatphontip Gym or Luktupfah Muay Thai better for a beginner?
- Both. Kiatphontip Gym and Luktupfah Muay Thai each read as a room somebody who has never trained can walk into. That is a call made at a desk from what each camp publishes about who it trains, not a verdict from the mats. A gym built around a fight team will take a beginner's money and leave them holding pads at the back for a month, so ask both how a first session actually runs before you book either.
- Can you stay at Kiatphontip Gym or Luktupfah Muay Thai?
- Both. Kiatphontip Gym and Luktupfah Muay Thai each say on their own site that you can sleep at the camp. Neither nightly rate is published, so the room line stays blank rather than get estimated off camps elsewhere that do print one. Staying in means the commute stops being a decision you make twice a day at five in the morning, which matters more than the saving on most trips shorter than a month.
- How many sessions a day do Kiatphontip Gym and Luktupfah Muay Thai run?
- The same number. Kiatphontip Gym and Luktupfah Muay Thai both run 2 sessions a day. That is how many are on offer and not how many anybody should plan on taking. A timetable says when the door is open; how many times you walk through it is most of the difference between a training holiday and a camp, and a first week of doubles is how people spend a second week injured.
- How far apart are Kiatphontip Gym and Luktupfah Muay Thai?
- About 39 km in a straight line, measured between the two pins rather than along a road, so a motorbike covers more ground than that and traffic decides the rest. Both camps sit in Bangkok. That is a ride rather than a walk, so trying both in one trip means picking a base and paying to cross, or splitting the stay in two.
