If You're Going To Train Muay Thai in Thailand, Why Not Train On A Tropical Island?

Since Diamond Muay Thai opened in 2011 on Koh Phangan Island, we have established ourselves as one of the best Muay Thai camps in South Thailand.

Whether you are a beginner or a pro, our team of trainers will give you close attention and endless encouragement.

We’re not a factory - we’re a family. At Diamond, you will never be lost in the crowd.

High Season Drop-In Students

During high season ( December-March) we limit drop-in students to maintain a good student to trainer ratio during sessions.  If you are a drop-in and not part of our 'Train and Stay' program, please check at our front office before jumping into class.

Training Packages

We offer two different training packages:

Train & Stay: Immerse yourself in Muay Thai gym culture by staying with us at the camp. This package includes:

  • all Muay Thai, yoga and fitness classes 
  • delicious, nutritious and sociable meals at Mamma’s, our onsite restaurant
  • a choice of accommodation to suit all budgets

Train-Only: Pay per day, per week or per month.
