It offers boxing, Muay Thai, BJJ and MMA with world-class coaching and facilities, an MMA/boxing-led gym rather than a pure Muay Thai specialist. Rating 5.0 (109) Location Cape Town City Centre Level All levels, beginner to competitor From R 1050 /month About the Gym MADFIT was founded in 2015 by professional MMA fighter Don "Magic Man" Madge and expert boxing coach Matthew Leisching, and it's repeatedly described by reviewers as one of the best gyms in the country. The facilities are extensive, weight zone, boxing bags and two rings, grappling mats, an MMA cage, and a coffee café, and the coaching carries serious pedigree, with trainers who've competed and won at world level. It offers boxing, Muay Thai, BJJ and MMA for everyone from first-timers and kids to competitors. Honestly, its centre of gravity is boxing and MMA rather than Muay Thai specifically, but the quality and community are exceptional. A strong choice if you want Muay Thai inside a world-class, multi-discipline fight gym.
