The Kai Thai Academy of Martial Arts has rekindled my desire to get into great shape. I started at Kai Thai to learn Martial Arts but I quickly learned that a complete Martial Artist not only knows how to defend him or herself from attack, but a Martial Artist must also learn to defend him or herself from themself.....
If you are not active and working out, you are literally attacking yourself.
The conditioning program at KTA is better than any health club I have ever been to. It's hard work with like minded people. None of the "do a set, read the paper, do another set" type of "athletes" that you get at your local health club. The students at Kai Thai are there to work.
............ and the results show. The school is full of success stories with health. Including me! I've lost 15 pounds in the past month and I am getting into great shape!
I love the Muay Thai and BJJ. I look forward to starting the wrestling program!
The gym itself is pretty raw, but it fits the energy! I love it there! Do not expect a million-dollar-facility. If you need that type of environment, KTA is not for you.
I think anyone who thinks that they are a martial artist or health fanatic should check out Kai Thai....... they may find out quickly that their self image is dangerously wrong.

I train Brazilian JiuJitsu and after training at a couple other schools in the area, I've found my new home!! Instructors Bishop Holmes and Eric Griffin are top notch. Whether you're looking for quality instruction in wrestling, Muay Thai, Brazilian JiuJitsu, boxing or strength and conditioning, you can't find a more dedicated and helpful team and training staff, than at The Academy. No ego's or attitudes. There's a real team/family feel to the members and it's like I have a 2nd family! Great training!!

Awesome school with awesome instructors. Puts out good fighters, yet anyone can train at their level. This is a no ego gym, and everyone is there to better themselves to achieve their own personal goals, whether it is to step in the ring or cage, or just improve their fitness level with some pretty intense cardio. I would recommend anyone to at least stop by and check it out. I promise you wont be disappointed

The Kai Thai Academy of Martial Arts simply offers the best functional martial arts training and conditioning in Wilson North Carolina..... perhaps in all of Eastern North Carolina put together. This is a no ego gym and everyone comes prepared to WORK. The Kai Thai family is just that.... a family! We all push each other very hard, support one another and get together outside of the gym. I've been to a lot of martial arts gyms and a lot of health clubs and nothing is even close to the level of KTA. I've seen numerous success stories, whether it's people looking to compete and fight, people trying to lose weight, or people looking for a legitimate answer to learning self defense, KTA offers it all. If you are sick and tired of the average Health/Social Club and you are not interested in the flooded market of cracker-jack karate schools that are teaching nothing but unrealistic and unreliable "self defence" techniques, I think you should check out The Kai Thai Academy of Martial Arts. It's a great place! Muay Thai, BJJ and Wrestling all under one roof.... in Wilson no less! It's a no brainer for me, not to mention the instrution is incredible.... but that's a whole other review! Come check it out for yourself!
Wow I checked this school out and Kai Thai Academy is legit, bro im telling you this place is like out of this world. Man i can go to muay thai, bjj, and mma for one low price. Other schools charge like 3 times as much. Also the instruction is amazing, its like a one stop shopping for your martial arts needs.
