I’ve been training at Ringcraft for about 9 months now, and it’s been such a great experience! I started with the Women’s / Non-Binary, Femme-Presenting class, and Coach Kim made me feel comfortable and supported from the start. Coach Kim is patient, knowledgeable, encouraging, and always makes class fun while still keeping it challenging. As I built more confidence, I started taking the fundamentals/all-level classes and really noticed even more progress. One thing I really appreciate is how attentive and welcoming all of the coaches are. The environment is positive, supportive, and beginner-friendly while still helping you grow and challenge yourself. I’d definitely recommend Ringcraft to anyone interested in starting martial arts or looking for a welcoming community to train with! :)

I can't say enough good things about this gym. I started with zero experience, and now feel genuinely confident in every session. I've improved so much, and the environment is a huge reason why. Coach Kim is amazing—incredibly knowledgeable, patient, encouraging, tough, and always willing to answer questions or break things down in a way that really makes sense. I highly recommend the femmes & thems class. Every class feels welcoming, supportive, and safe, regardless of experience level. It has truly become one of the highlights of my week. Could not ask for a better community to learn in.

Can’t speak highly enough about the people and trainers at Ringcraft. If you have any interest in Muay Thai or are looking for a place to train this is the spot in Portland. Not only did I improve my technique a ton in contact drills and tons of fun pad rounds but I also got to know some truly amazing people in the process. Would give 10 stars if I could.

I've been training at Ringcraft for about three years and there are a lot of things I could say - but in the interest of keeping this brief, I have a list: 1) If you are looking to begin some sort of "martial arts journey" - this is the place for you. 2) If you are an experienced practitioner who wants to train somewhere with a high skill ceiling and good technique - this is the place for you. 3) The community at Ringcraft is second to none. I went from having almost no friends to now having a lot of really amazing friends and acquaintances. The space is very friendly and inclusive - regardless of your skill level. 4) The coaching staff rules. They are incredibly patient and fair. And are always open to answering questions you might have. All in all - Ringcraft is the real deal. If you put in the work and give it a fair shot, you'll be rewarded with an awesome community and a fun skill. All without the annoying woes/worries that might come with a typical gym.

Head Coach Greg and his team of instructors are top tier in the art of teaching the art of eight limbs. I trained here for a year, and I learned so much beyond just combos. From even the minute details of body mechanics of the how to best place your foot to how to set up a guard to stop flinching, the coaches here take an interest in the students and give each an unique focus that helps their own individual style of Muay Thai. Sparring partners are humble and are happy to adjust pace according to feedback. And there are occasional seminars from world champion fighters!
