“I’ve been coached by Andy for almost a year and have seen massive improvements in my Muay Thai skills. Before joining, I had never even thrown a punch and didn’t know much about Muay Thai, but now I feel confident and excited to throw a wide range of strikes and even spar. Andy’s coaching teaches fluidity, focuses on fundamentals, and attracts students who are fierce and kind. I’ve loved working with Andy and the entire crew at Muok!” Andrew M.

Andy fosters an environment where recreational fighters and competition-level fighters alike are able to mix and learn with each other.” Mikey C.

“I cannot say enough great things about Muok as a community. I knew nothing about martial arts when I started training with Andy 4 years ago but I ended up loving Muay Thai! The classes are fun and at the same time, you get a great work out. Andy is extremely knowledgeable about Muay Thai and his classes are full of energy and personalized attention. New students are treated like part of the family. I highly recommend Andy if you are looking for a Muay Thai gym where you want to feel at home, grow your skills and even compete. If you are looking to keep fit and are first starting out, just give it a shot! You will love Muay Thai and you will love this group!” Denise C.

“Andy is a phenomenal coach whose passion for teaching is evident to everyone who trains with him. He brings the same enthusiasm day in and day out, regardless if it’s with seasoned fighters or day 1 beginners. His ability to cater his instruction to the needs of his students and help them reach their goals truly sets him apart.” Beau A.

“I’ve loved training with Andy. He explains so much more than the how but also the why of what we’re doing. It is a puzzle as a workout and I’ve improved so much as I’ve learned more about the strategy.” Jora L.

“After training with Andy for 4 years I was able step into the ring feeling completely competent, and dominated the match. Andy is a master of authentic Muay Thai, and has become a friend and mentor to me outside of the mats. Andy created a fun and lighthearted atmosphere, which led to a large community of friends on an off the mats. It was encouraging to know that I had a place at the gym where I was known and treated like family rather than just another member.” Peter F.

“Muay Thai coaching combined with Physical Therapy knowledge, Andy is a great coach/trainer to work with. He's knowledgeable in the practical application of MT moves and the body's functionality when engaging these movements. It has helped me tremendously to continuously take these sessions because I also learn MT as a form of self defense. I'm thankful to be a student in this class.” Jo-An M.

I started training with Andy Le around 6 years ago. I started out with very little Muay Thai experience and eventually became a successful Muay Thai fighter and even an instructor for some time. None of that would have been possible without Andy. His knowledge and dedication to Muay Thai showed through his dedication to his students. If you’re interested in just learning Muay Thai as a hobby and getting yourself into shape, he’s got you. If you’re interested in stepping into the ring and fighting, he’ll make you into a fighter. He’s one of the best Muay Thai coaches and one of the best people you’ll have the privilege of training with and getting to know. Don’t take my word for it though, check out his gym and see for yourself! Dan C.

“Training with Andy and team has helped me unlock a new understanding of Muay Thai concepts and combat as a whole. Andy’s detailed explanation for reasons why we do certain moves, has shows me why and and when to use key techniques such as defense, timing, footwork, gauging distance, counter strikes, and many more. Because I’ve trained with Andy and team, my Muay Thai foundation has continued to improve and be even more solidified. I’m thankful for the coach and the dedicated fighters who make each of us better everyday.” Gozi P.

"I trained with Andy for about a year and a half before I left the Seattle area for work. Andy is welcoming to all who enter his gym and will take them as far as they want to go. He is an exceptionally talented, analytical, and knowledgeable coach who teaches an authentic Muay Thai and has the ability to posture his fighters to the style that works best for them. He creates a positive and inclusive environment for everyone... The team became a family for me and those bonds I remember fondly and cherish to this day. I got into the best shape of my life training with Andy, losing roughly 30 pounds in preparation for a competitive amateur fight. Overall, Andy lit a lifelong passion for Muay Thai in me and after training for 5 years after leaving Seattle in 4 countries, Andy still ranks among the very best I've had the honor of learning from. There is no one better in the Seattle area." Raj S.

“I’ve been training with Andy and the team for almost 2 years and I can say this is much more than a gym, this is a family. Andy has so much knowledge and dedication to coaching and training that he can pinpoint the exact details that make a huge difference in your technique. The vibe is awesome and the team is welcoming. This is by far the best gym that I have trained at. If you are in the area and want to learn or train Muay Thai, this a no brainer, this is the place.” Andres C.

I meet Andy over 5 years ago to try Muay Thai for the first time. I am a purple belt in jiu jitsu, and wanted to learn striking. Right away I could tell he has a rare coaching ability to make anyone feel comfortable. Might it be someone who just wants to get in shape and test themselves, to someone who wants to compete at a high level. And the classes were fun. Years later I would take private lessons and practices with Andy, and have recommended him to friends. All have really enjoyed working with Andy. He is very good at cueing (important if you are any level), he is a Physical Therapist, so has a deep understanding of the body, you can tell he loves the sport and again, the classes are challenging but we always have a good time. I highly recommend him" Danny M
