1 Session – Muay Thai Private Class with Kru Mai All Levels at R1 Muay Thai Phuket

Muay Thai one-on-one with R1's head trainer — a private 60-minute session with Kru Mai at R1 Muay Thai Phuket in Bangtao.

This 1-session private class gives you 60 minutes of one-on-one coaching with Kru Mai, head trainer at R1 Muay Thai Phuket. Unlike the fixed group timetable, private sessions have flexible booking times between 10:00 AM and 3:00 PM, subject to trainer availability. Every minute is built around your goals, your level and your pace.

A private with a head trainer is a different experience from any group class: sixty minutes where every round of pad work, every correction and every drill exists for one student — you. Whether you want a foundation built properly from your very first session, a specific technique broken down and rebuilt, or fight-level details sharpened, Kru Mai reads where you are and coaches exactly what you need. By the end of this session you'll have personal corrections most students train months in groups without ever hearing.

Your session is over in an hour — which leaves the whole day for Bangtao and beyond. Bangtao Beach, about 10 km from the gym, offers one of Phuket's longest white-sand stretches, far quieter than Patong. Surin Beach, around 12 km away, is the picture spot — crystal-clear turquoise water framed by casuarina trees. And Phuket Old Town, roughly 19 km out, trades beach time for Sino-Portuguese shophouses, cafés and street photography along Thalang and Dibuk Roads.

FAQ

• Who is Kru Mai?
  Kru Mai is the head trainer at R1 Muay Thai Phuket. He began Muay Thai at 8 years old and brings decades of experience as a fighter, coach and referee in Thailand, known for technical coaching, attention to detail and a calm, professional approach.

• I'm a complete beginner — is a private with a head trainer too advanced for me?
  Not at all. Kru Mai works with everyone from complete beginners to experienced fighters, and a private session is arguably the best possible start: your stance, guard and basics get built correctly from minute one, with nothing picked up wrong that needs fixing later.

• How is this different from joining a group class?
  Group classes at R1 run 90 minutes on a fixed timetable with coaching shared across the room. This private gives you 60 minutes of Kru Mai's full attention at a time that suits you — every drill chosen for your goals, every correction personal.

• What should I ask to work on in one session?
  Anything from first-day fundamentals to fight-camp details. Common choices: building correct basics, fixing one persistent technical problem, private pad rounds at your real pace, or clinch and defence work that's hard to get enough of in groups.
