Muay Thai gyms in Newcastle

The directory lists Newcastle and Newcastle upon Tyne as separate pages: 6 gyms and 5 gyms, re-read on 10 Oct 2026. This page is the Newcastle count of 6. Adding the two numbers would invent a city the directory does not use. There is no Newcastle price median in the sample.

Key facts:

• 6 listings on the UK country page, re-read 10 Oct 2026. Listings checked 28 Sep 2026.
• No adult drop-in median is published for Newcastle in the price sample. No UK median is published while the price-sample method is checked by hand.
• 293 of 671 UK listings state beginner classes. That is a national count, not a Newcastle count, unless this page says otherwise.
• Rankings use nine published facts. They are not a star rating and not a fee.

What 6 listings means

6 is the directory count for Newcastle, from the country page re-read on 10 Oct 2026. It is not the price sample. The sample is a different file of 1,116 rows, used for medians, and its city counts do not match the directory. London is 131 in the directory and 103 in the sample. Use 6 when you say how many gyms we list in Newcastle.

A listing is a gym we have a page for. A scored gym is one with at least five of the nine published facts filled in. Where this page does not give a scored count, we did not re-open that city's ranking list on 10 Oct 2026, and we will not guess it.

Prices

We did not re-read a named Newcastle adult fee on 10 Oct 2026. The same is true of the Newcastle upon Tyne page: we have the count of 5, not a median. If you saw a single 'Newcastle price' on another site, ask which listing it came from. Two directory pages can both be silent on price. Silence is not a shared fee.

The catalogue first-class pair, gloves plus 4.5 m wraps, is £58.98 at catalogue prices on 8 Oct 2026. Many gyms lend gloves for a trial. Ask before you buy. Most UK gyms that state a sparring weight ask for 16oz. That is Atlas copy from 8 Oct 2026, not a by-law. Confirm it with the coach.

Beginners

Nationally, 293 of 671 listings state beginner classes, and 289 state kids' classes. Those sentences are not a promise that every Newcastle gym runs a fundamentals hour. Open the listing. If the beginner line is blank, the gym has not stated it. Blank is not a no.

Week one at a normal gym is stance, a jab, a cross, and a teep, not sparring. If a gym sells you a fight or a full kit before that month is over, slow down. The beginners guide is the longer version of that advice.

How the ranking works, if Newcastle has one

The live methodology page, read 10 Oct 2026, scores nine published facts out of 100: dedicated Muay Thai 25, a fight team the gym states 15, a public timetable 10, beginner classes 10, kids' classes 10, a stated affiliation 10, women-only classes 5, a free or trial class 5, and years operating at 1 point per 2 years up to 10. A gym is ranked only when at least five criteria can be checked. Missing data scores zero and is shown as not stated. Ties break alphabetically. A city list needs three qualifying gyms. Featured placements are labelled and do not change the order. Google ratings do not enter the score. Paying does not move a row.

The methodology page is /rankings/methodology/. This city guide does not re-order anyone.

Using the directory

People search one phrase and the directory stores two. Newcastle upon Tyne is its own URL, with 5 listings on the country page re-read the same day. A gym filed under one page does not also count on the other. If you are standing in a part of the conurbation and the listing you want is on the other page, use that page. The map is allowed to be more precise than the search box. Edinburgh also has 6 listings. That is a different country-page row, not a Geordie duplicate.

The postcode tool on the near-me page covers 492 UK listings that have a postcode. It is a filter, not a quality score. Pick the session you can reach on a dark evening, then read that gym's own timetable before you travel.
