I had the absolute pleasure of training at Vanquish Muay Thai under the guidance of the exceptional head coach, Vimukthi, and the WBC Heavyweight Champ, Gevin. From the moment I stepped foot into the gym, I was greeted with warmth and enthusiasm by the entire team. The atmosphere at Vanquish Muay Thai is simply electric, and it's clear that the passion for Muay Thai runs deep within every member of the team. But what truly sets this gym apart is Head Coach Vimukthi's unmatched expertise and dedication. His knowledge of Muay Thai is profound, and he knows just how to tailor his training methods to suit each individual's skill level and goals. Whether you're a beginner looking to get into the sport or an experienced fighter striving for greatness, Coach Vimukthi has the ability to bring out the best in you. Apart from the outstanding coaching and the welcoming team, the facilities at Vanquish Muay Thai are top-notch. The gym is well-equipped, clean, and spacious, providing an ideal setting for focused training sessions. If you're ready to embrace the art of Muay Thai and train with one of the best coaches out there, look no further than Vanquish.

One of the best Mauy Thai training centre in the town. Professional and friendly environment. Highly recommended.

Best Muay Thai training in Sri Lanka! I’ve trained around the world and can honestly say the head coach Vimukthi is truly one of the best there is! His teachings methods and the techniques he teaches you are awesome!

If you are going through the reviews to find a dojo to guide you through your journey whether it's purely fitness, self-defense or to become a Muay Thai fighter. Look no further. The coaches at Vanquish will go above and beyond to help and guide you through your journey. You'll be in good hands of highly skilled and experienced coaches. Not to mention the entire Vanquish team. Everyone is super helpful and will push you further. Guess in a way, it becomes a family. <3

I've been training under Coach Vimukthi for 3 years now and he is the absolute best coach in the business! He puts his 110% to bring out the best in you. Whether you are training just for fitness, to learn Muay Thai as a martial art or if you have aspirations of fighting in tournaments, Coach Vimukthi will ensure that your training goals are met. He is friendly, patient and will make sure you understand the fundamentals and his passionate teaching style is sure to inspire you. Vanquish Muay Thai and Fitness is a wonderful training environment and training here makes you feel like you are part of a fun butt-kicking family! I guarantee that you will enjoy training here. Looking forward to meeting you!

By far the best one on one Muay Thai sessions I've had, including training with quite a few trainers in Thailand. Vimukthi is a fantastic coach. From the outset, he conducted a thorough assessment to understand my strengths and areas for improvement. He then devised a training plan focusing on specific technical aspects, like footwork and kicks. What sets Vimukthi apart is not just his expertise in training professional fighters but also his patience and keen eye for detail. He knows exactly how to build up skills progressively, correcting one aspect at a time. He's methodical and very considerate. Highly recommend for anyone serious about learning Muay Thai, beginners or experienced fighters!

Best place in sri lanka to learn Muay Thai. From beginners to advanced fighting, the best coach in town to train you and get the best out of you.

Best coach ever. Not only does he know his subject well, but he listens, he's engaging and makes sure you're doing your best. I can't recommend Vanquish Fitness enough. Excellent training program.

Without a doubt Vanquish is the best dojo to join if you dream of becoming a true Muaythai fighter in SL. As a current student of coach Vimukthi who inspires and guides me to be the best version of myself, I would strongly recommend his training programs as it helps to build your confidence along with learning the proper techniques of this spectacular martial art. And also I feel lucky to be a part of Team Vanquish and learning from the most talented and humble coach EVER!!!

Vimukthi is one of the talented and one of the most down to earth people I have ever met. It's impressive how he keeps the team motivated and keeps focused. He focuses and gives much attention to each individual while he is training which enables everyone to improve faster. I'd highly recommend V and his sessions.

Muay Thai is considered one of the most effective martial arts one can learn. If you're looking to train in the art of eight limbs for self-defense, improve fitness or just as a hobby, Coach Vimukthi is the teacher to go to. I have trained under him and he knows his stuff. Being a martial artist of several disciplines since early age, he'd been to Thailand to train Muay Thai as well. He will teach you at your own pace but push you to your limits when needed. I can not recommend a better person for this than Coach Vimukthi.

This is a fantastic dojo with a great team spirit, where Coach Vimukthi really captures the experience of training as a muay thai fighter. You will approach your limit in a safe way. Theres a holistic focus on not only developing skills in the ring but other aspects like conditioning and flexibility. I definitely felt myself improve since joining. The skills training keeps building on where it was left off, so theres a chance to keeping improving week on week and also work on your own style

I've been training at Vanquish Muay Thai for some time now and I can confidently say that it's a fantastic gym. The lead trainer and the rest of the trainers are extremely knowledgeable, friendly, and approachable. They are always willing to help with technique and offer advice on how to improve. Not only is Vanquish Muay Thai's approach to teaching the art of Muay Thai practical, but it's also methodical. The trainers ensure that there is always a continuation from what you learned during the previous sessions, making it easy to build upon your skills and knowledge over time. What I appreciate the most about Vanquish is that they welcome people of all ages and skill levels. I've seen women, kids, and beginners just starting out, all getting the same level of attention and encouragement as the more advanced students. It's a great place to learn Muay Thai and to get in shape. If you're looking for a gym that's technical, supportive, and welcoming, then Vanquish Muay Thai is definitely worth checking out. I highly recommend it!

Have been training under coach Vimukthi for more than 2 years. The best coach who can bring out the best in you from the beginning. Highly recommend and even for a freshman who’s willing to start kick boxing.

Had my first lesson today with coach Vimukthi. He's very professional and knowledgeable. It's group classes but he does give individual attention when necessary. He will focus on the basics for newbies but wont hesitate to push you for sure! Be ready to work hard. The gym is equipped with a padded floor and padded pillars and punching bags for training. You have to take your own gloves, knee pads etc. It's on the top floor of a building and well ventilated. There is parking but it's shared with shops as well. The toilet is clean but it's best to bring your own drinking water. There is tap water to drink too. The coach is quite serious about techniques and will drill you extensively. Sparring sessions are really fun even as a newbie because the crowd that comes is super cool and ready to help you out. First impressions: highly recommended 👌🏽

Vanquish Muay Thai is hand down one of, if not the best place to learn self defense in Colombo! Not only do you learn but it’s also super fun. Coach Vimukthi is one of the best martial arts practitioners I’ve met and is always giving his 100 percent to get your techniques and rhythm right. Very down to earth and highly skilled coach.

It has been an absolute pleasure training under Vimukthi. He will first assess your fitness and experience level and then mould a program that is tailor made for you. This approach has enabled me to improve my fitness while learning the highly effective art of Muay Thai - all while having an absolute blast! Vimukthi is immensely knowledgeable and experienced in Muay Thai and his friendly and patient nature makes him a fantastic trainer. I would recommend Vanquish to anyone (regardless of fitness level) looking for a dynamic and effective training program that challenges both the body and mind.

Joining Vanquish has been one of the best decisions I've made. Coach Vimukthi is patient, and kind. He pushes you to your limits and motivates you every step of the way. Highly recommended for anyone!

If you all looking for muay thai classes, this is the ideal place, highly recommended I love that place from the first day, can’t wait for next week classes that much excited I’m willing to do competition so that’s why I choose vanquish, best place if you all willing to do competition training ❤️🥊

Vanquish is a Professional fight and fitness training outfit where it produce Elite athletes who has demonstrated their performance in the highest level of the fighting arena in Sri Lanka.

The best place to learn Muay Thai. Coach Vimukthi always trains us to push our limits and become the best version of ourselves. Highly recommend! 💫

I've been training at Vanquish for almost 3 years now. This gym is suitable for people of all ages. I've seen kids from the age of 5 to Gentlemen and women who's in their late 50's train at Vanquish. Your goal can be either self defence, beginning a fitness journey or training to become a fighter in the art of Muaythai, Vanquish is the go to place. Coach/Kru Vimukthi is a highly capable modern day martial artist who loves the sport and will go above and beyond to give his students/clients the best experience at Vanquish. Stop idling around and start now, it's never too late. You won't regret this decision.

I highly reccomend this place! wonderful atmosphere and the best coach! private training conducted at the highest level with attention to every detail. The trainer is a very warm person, but also one with whom you immediately want to train a hundred times harder! I recommend! greetings from Poland 🧡

This has to be one of the best places to learn Muay Thai in SL. Coach Vimukthi is a very attentive teacher and will always try to bring out the best in you while training. The dojo is also superb and is covered by mats to make training much safer/easier. Overall amazing experience.

One of the best places . I would highly recommend who ever wants to learn self defense, fitness or to reduce their weight. I've been training under coach vimukthi who is the head coach of Vanquish Muay Thai & Fitness for almost 03 years,through out my Martial arts journey for 7ys ,he is the best coach I've ever met. Coach Vimukthi is an experienced coach and a Muay thai fighter for years. He has fought in Thailand and has a great knowledge on fitness & self defense.

One of the Recommended places for muay thai. A great Coach and buddy.

Anyone can learn the art of Muay Thai if you're being trained by Coach Vimukthi. He is very attentive, super fun to work with and gives his 100% to each student. You can ask him a thousand times to show you the same technique and he'll gladly do it. The positive reinforcement coach keeps feeding us to push through any tough drill is a huge motivator. In short, his training makes you want to come back for more! Motto: No bad habits 🤟🏽 I recommend Vanquish to everyone because you'll come out of there a fighter. 15/10!

Despite being extremely excited to start Muay Thai lessons, I did have some apprehension when going for the first class(particularly because I have never done anything remotely close to martial arts in my life!). Yet Vimukthi managed to make both my husband and I feel completely at ease from the get go. After an initial assessment of our physical capabilities, he created a schedule for us, tailored specifically for us. Vimukthi ensures we are constantly challenged and pushes us, allowing every session to be productive, exhilarating and so much fun. Two months after starting classes at Vanquish, I can say with confidence that no matter how physically challenging it gets, it will always be a highlight of my day. Vimukthi is a dynamic coach whose coaching evolves to meet the needs of his students. He pays painstaking attention to detail, ensuring every technique is learnt to a T. He is patient, kind and extremely knowledgable about his art. While I still have a long way to go in learning the art of Muay Thai, there's no one I'd rather train with!

Vanquish is an amazing place to start your martial art journey. The studio is well equipped and has windows all the way round making it a well ventilated, super cool , airy space. Entering this environment as a total beginner to this practice you would think would be intimidating, however coach Vimukthi welcomes you warmly and is so very attentive to each individuals ability and needs. He has all the qualities of an amazing coach , true, genuine enthusiasm , incredible positive energy, kindness and patience and he makes you feel like you really can achieve anything you want to with his encouragement and positive, strong attitude! The great thing with this place is the community… you are not only supported by coach but also supported by his other students , who help you all the way… as a beginner I felt safe, warmly welcomed and ready to be a part of this community. Vimukthi has built a wonderful community full of energetic , skilled and focused fighters, and I am so happy to experience this. He is professional , encouraging and most of all attentive to each individual student. I am a yoga teacher and I feel this practice is superb for my fitness , focus, strength and flexibility, I feel lighter, faster stronger and younger!😊👍🏽🙌🏽💪🏽 A massive self confidence booster , totally recommend 💯 🙏🏽Arati 🙏🏽

Highly recommend Vanquish to anyone who is interested in starting Muay Thai. Coach V is fun, dedicated and attentive to everyone in the class, and brings the best fighter out of anyone!

The absolute best place to learn Muay Thai a clean well equipped gym and by far the best coach you could ever ask for. 100/10 highly recommend

Had a awesome time he is a really great teacher. I think it’s a value addition to everyone nowadays cause you never know how the society is. Learning and trying to save yourself incase of an emergency is worthwhile. Glad that I was part of the session we had.

A very clean facility and a knowledgeable coach who will lead you along the development of your abilities. Each bodies are different and the will is yours. But coach V will give you the support to do the extra miles and the precise knowledge of boxing and muay thai to develop your own game at its best.

Top Muay Thai gym! Unlike some other places in Colombo, this place teaches you the real art of Muay Thai. The coach and his team are good and super friendly. Get ready for fun and a good workout!

Brilliant place! Vimukthi is THE BEST i personally am not a great athlete but Coach makes everything interesting to do...and Physically is the most intense workout that ive been through . join! got nothing to loose and so much to gain

Been training with Coach Vimukthi for the past 5 years.. Excellent coach and the best place to learn Muay Thai..

Vimukthi does an amazing job as a trainer and he's such a humble guy. He keeps the program interesting even for beginners such as myself, and I'm so glad I decided to attend his classes. Keep it up V.

I have personally come to learn, that my previous, albeit ineffective and ill considered method of attaining my fitness and well-being objectives, just didn’t generate the results that I hoped for and envisaged. A good gym membership by itself, just didn’t cut it! I commenced training Muay Thai with Coach V fairly recently, and I must say, it has been - and continues to be - a truly remarkable experience. Muay Thai with Coach Vimukthi is more than a sport. It’s more than fitness. It’s more than learning an art of damage or self defense. It’s more than sparring and combat. It’s about learning and applying discipline; it’s about learning to find your 7th gear when you think you’re physically and mentally shattered; it’s about learning to find a degree of control in situations that are seemingly impossible to overcome; it’s about learning another course; learning perhaps, a better course. When you learn and commit to Muay Thai training with Coach V of Vanquish, you will not merely learn true Muay Thai; you will not merely attain your personal physical and fitness objectives; you will not merely attain better mental and spiritual focus and well-being. You will learn and feel something far more valuable with every ounce of sweat and exhaustion. And that is, that your preconceived notions of your limits and capabilities, were merely an illusion. You are more than what you think you are. You are more than what others make you feel you are. You are more capable than you know. Make a choice, and choose Muay Thai with Coach V of Vanquish. You will not regret it one bit.

I highly recommend Vanquish to all those interested in Muay Thai - be it for fitness, a hobby or training to compete! The coaches have created the perfect atmosphere, where you’d feel free to clarify any instructions or ask questions directly from them, allowing you to understand the sport well. The class fees are also very affordable and 100% worth it! Ideal for anyone, even complete beginners to martial arts!

I think this is the best place to learn proper Muay Thai in Sri Lanka. The coaches are really great and friendly from the beginning to the ring where you become a fighter. They give you their fully support to grow up as a fighter. Also the gym is really great, you got all the equipments that you want starting from bags, pads, gloves to everything.
