Muay Thai gym help!!!

Hey guys, right now im a a HUGE predicament. There are three different schools that I can learn Muay Thai at, I need help choosing. First, there is Coopers Gym USA. It is the closest to my house, but the website doesnt say the price, or instructor. The only thing I know is it is the closest and it is "authentic" Muay Thai. But, I've heard some good reviews on it. Second, is East West Martial Arts. It is the second closest, and the instructor was trained by Matee Jedeepitak. Do not know price. And the third, is the farthest. The price is 75 dollars a month, and the instructor IS Matee Jedeepitak. If anyone knows any information about any of these gyms, please share.

Why don't you go to each gym and see if they give free trial lessons to see which gym suits you the most?

Matee for sure. He has a deeper understanding of Muay Thai Than many of the trainers I have worked with in Thailand.

why do people always have an excuse as to why they don't do something right. instead of just shutting up and doing it right the next time.

Ok thanks. Now that I have chosen a gym, I have a stupid question. The gym says the class is Muay Thai mixed, what exactly is a mixed class. Is it just different ranks in ome class?
