Everyone is willing to help you learn and grow and will help push you past what you thought were your limits. If your looking for a place to become a stronger version of yourself, this is the place to do it.

Experiencia fantástica: LOVE working out with ECF! The gym is always super clean, and everyone is amazing. I ended up moving from Charlotte to Florida, and ECF has been able to accommodate me on a virtual basis which has been incredible for my health and physique. I am very grateful for Denise, Ali and all my classmates for letting me still be part of this awesome community!

Experiencia fantástica: So grateful I found this gym. I’ve been doing fitness kickboxing for over 5 years and I love it! It’s the perfect combo of cardio and strength.

Experiencia fantástica: Trained for over a year their now, great community and the most authentic muay thai around, kru and Guto do a great job.

Experiencia fantástica: This facility is very clean and the staff is informative and friendly. My son attends the children's classes on Tuesdays and Thursday's, and occasionally on Wednesdays. The instructors are attentive to the children. Guto and his team are very patient and knowledgeable. We've been attending the children's classes for a little over a month and have noticed MAJOR progress in our son's attention span, listening skills and overall confidence. I definitely recommend this gym for adults and children.

Experiencia fantástica: One of the absolute best places in Charlotte to train Muay Thai, there is no other gym like this one, and I've trained at a bunch. Whether you're a beginner or highly advanced in Muay Thai you will find immense benefit in training here. I love training here, you feel like family as soon as you walk-in. The teachers and your teammates will push you and make you better then you thought you could be. The owner, Kru James, really knows his stuff and I'm so proud to train under him. The BJJ program and Kickboxing classes are awesome also! ECF is a great place to train and become well-rounded in self-defense and fitness.

Experiencia positiva: My son attends here. He loves it. I've noticed quite a change since he's been attending. He's becoming more focused and disciplined as he navigates through work and school.

Experiencia fantástica: AMAZING gym. As a former D1 athlete, I have been through countless gyms, training programs, and coaches. ECF has A++ coaching and an environment anyone can feel comfortable in. The gym feels just small enough to get a bunch of personalized coaching, but also have enough partners to test your skills. I’m moving out of the area, but I credit ECF with starting my love for Muay Thai. Be sure to stop by!!

Experiencia fantástica: Positive: Communication , Professionalism , Quality Amazing gym

Experiencia fantástica: I came to Charlotte on vacation and needed a place to train for the weekend. Everyone was really nice and the gym was incredible. Highly recommend if your in the area.

Experiencia fantástica: I've been doing Muay Thai here for about a year and I just started doing BJJ maybe a month ago. The gym recently became a Brazilian Top Team location, which means that the gym is top of the line. Kru James is awesome and really has a passion for passing on Muay Thai to his students. Professor Guto is an amazing coach and has had so much patience with me. He has amazing skills and truly lives the BJJ lifestyle. Anyone of any background is welcome here and you'll have a great time learning real, authentic martial arts.

Experiencia fantástica: Was recently able to try out a couple of the BJJ classes. Had a great experience, Guto (the black belt instructor) is super laid back and easy going. Whether you're someone wanting to try it out for the first time or an experienced upper belt I would highly recommend coming in to check out ECF.

Experiencia fantástica: Great gym and trainers. I would recommend for anyone who wants to begin their fighting career or simple just trying to stay in shape.

Experiencia fantástica: While on a recent vacation, I was able to take a muay thai class at ECF. If I lived in Charlotte, this would be the gym that I train at everyday. No need to try any others. The Kru was very skilled and knowledgeable. Great at explaining techniques and combos. The students were also very welcoming and respectful. I've been training for a few years now and was able to learn new things just from this one visit. Awesome place. Highly recommend for people of all levels to try out. Shout out to Kru and Skip for the hospitality.

Experiencia fantástica: I was visiting Charlotte for work this week and was looking for a place to train when I stumbled into ECF on google. The gym is great, clean and big. The Kru was nice, very knowledgeable and crafty. The atmosphere was very welcoming and all the students were nice. I highly recommend this gym to anyone living in the Charlotte area and any visitors looking for a place to get some work. I only trained there for 4 days but will most definitely come back if I am in the area.

Experiencia fantástica: Incredible gym all around! Every bag, functional equipment, ring, etc that you would need. I was passing through for two weeks and they treated me like I have been a member for years. Kru gave me two private lessons and gave me more than I have learned in last 6 months. Kru offered up the gym for a solo workout whenever I wanted. Solid establishment.

Experiencia fantástica: This is an excellent gym. The facility is great, and the teaching is the best around. You will not find a more experienced and knowledgeable instructor than Kru Armlin. He is also humble, patient, and passionate about teaching the art he loves. Look no further for the best Muay Thai school around, you just found it

Experiencia fantástica: Great gym! Kayla and Denice are awesome trainers!!

Experiencia fantástica: have been involved in Martial Art over 20 years, and while living in Charlotte found East Coast Fighter. I spent 4 of the best years training here building friendships that last the test of time. You will not find a more honorable or devoted Instructor to this traditional martial art Muay Thai and the studets than Kru Armlin. I recommend to anyone looking for a home school as ECF has so much to offer. God Speed and Chok Dee Nak Muay Kru Armlin

Experiencia fantástica: Great mma gym. Friendly atmosphere. World class Jiu jitsu

Experiencia fantástica: Great place!! . Its what i needed

Experiencia positiva: Overall remarkable Muay Thai and Brazilian Jiu-jitsu training. A fantastic and clean facility with everything needed to advance in Combat Sports. The coaches are very welcoming and knowledgeable and the training is truely top notch. That said it is very pricey and not really a great price for those who don't have a good amount of stable income. The location is great and easily accessible and the kids classes are very solid as well.
