Reviews of Bad Company Thai Boxing Gym

R. Q.

Brilliant gym, brilliant trainers, couldn't ask for a better experience, I really enjoyed training at this gym for the white collar boxing event on the 18/09/21, I plan on signing up again in the future, thank you for everything guys

R. H.

Good gym especially if you are a beginner as Richard doesn't judge you even if you are a complete novice and aren't the best like me 😂 despite him having years of experience and training the best.

s. c.

I started going to bad company Thai boxing when I signed up for uwcb , the trainers Richard and Lisa were absolutely amazing with every lesson they taught I got more and more fascinated with boxing and I wanted to push my limits even further than I thought possible and now my eldest goes to Thai boxing and he loves and can't wait to go again

E. T.

Best gym ever! Best trainers! Well done for doing such a great job 👏

I trained at Bad Company for about 4 months for an Ultra White Collar Boxing event. Richard, Joe and Lisa managed the sessions and were amazing - supportive, motivating and positive during a particularly difficult year of Coronavirus restrictions. I'll be recommending BC to people for years to come.

What a gym!! I started training at Bad Company for the UWCB event but have been aware of the gym for a while after following a few of the fighters on social media. Honestly the best part of my weeks were a Tuesday and a Friday when we came training. I had less apprehension about PTI’s in the army than when Lisa would walk down the stairs for warmups or abs but all of it makes you better. Thank you to Richard, Lisa and Joe for everything!

Came here for my 12 week boxing program for cancer research UK. I had such a great time training for 12 weeks met some great people too! The owners were so good they made every session fun and also worked you really hard! I've recommended this gym to countless people for boxing training!

S. H.

The team at bad company have been next level. I've enjoyed every second of working with them throughout my training period, and can't wait to start training with the team again leading up to the next event in November

N. K.

I have been training here for ~8 months now, and am hoping to compete some time in the next few months. The trainer, Richard (x3 British Champ), is very friendly and an excellent trainer. Here, you get to train alongside many high level fighters. I would highly recommend popping down to check it out for yourself!

What an amazing place Bad Company Gym is. It can seem daunting walking into a fighting gym for the first time... but these are warm-hearted, friendly and welcoming people. BadCo is a real community champion and provides an outlet for many local young girls and boys. Having said that, it has more than it’s fair share of title holders... And despite having an impressive roster of World, European and National Champions, there are no egos here. I got fitter and my children became fitter, and have more confidence, and we all made some great friends along the way. Give it a go!

C. K.

After losing all motivation to get off the sofa and do something about my poor level of fitness, I signed up for UWCB. After going to Bad Company and having the amazing trainers Richard and Lisa, I’ve become fitter and stronger than I’ve been in a long time. The sessions are that good that I actually look forward to going throughout the week to train. They’ve brought all my motivation back and I’ve signed up to do the event again 🥊💪🏻

J. F.

Can be quite daunting entering a gym for the first time especially for someone with very little experience. However from the moment i set foot in here i felt very welcomed by Richard and Lisa. They offer a range of classes from thai boxing to mma/submission grappling for all levels. Cannot recommend this gym enough! I hope to continue training here as much as possible in the future👍

K. S.

I've been training at Bad Company gym for nearly 8 years now, and it's easy to see why it is known as one of the best gyms in the UK! Richard Smith has trained countless world champions, and him and his wife Lisa (also an ex world champion) really make the gym have a family feel to it! Would definitely recommend to anyone who is wanting to get fit and have fun, whether that is for self defense, health/fitness reasons or you're an aspiring fight!!! Best junior team in the UK and some of the best fighters in the world.

I can still remember my first day like it was this morning. Sat in the car park waiting for the coach to arrive for my PT, I was early he wasn't late, and then the big welcoming smile from Andy Thrasher who waa running the gym while the Smith family were out in Thailand. The walk up the stairs smelling of Thai oil and sweat which is what it should smell like. If you're making you're first climb when people are training you will hear the pads being kicked, punched, elbowed, kneed and the shouts as the energy is released from the fighters body. Don't be intimidated by this as it is the friendliest place I know. I thought I was having lessons to get fit but unbeknown to me I was joining a new family. I can't recommend Thai Boxing or Bad Company highly enough. The junior team is outstanding , the adult team is world class and then there's folk like me just getting fitter and learning a new skill. Hard work but worth it and there is no pressure at all to fight. New family members always welcome and the starter class is often run by Andy Howson a 5x World champ. Come and enjoy

Fantastic place to train whether you are new to Muay Thai, intermediate or a fighter. No surprise it is the most highly rated Muay Thai gym in the UK and home to some of the greatest fighters. Very friendly atmosphere with great coaches. Different levels of experience male and female. Richard and Lisa go into great detail including making sure you get even the basics perfect such as footwork, stance and hand position. They break everything down and help you out if you didnt get it. Learning and drilling new techniques every week keeps everything fresh. There are fitness classes tuesday and thursdays, kids classes, bjj classes tuesday and thursdays and if you are wanting to fight on the UWCB charity boxing show in Leeds this is where you will train. So far Richard and Lisa have raised over £400k for Cancer Research. Timetable for classes is on the website. Wednesday at 6.15 is always a good class for adult beginners.

m. b.

We regularly travel from Newcastle to Leeds to train at Bad Company. Its a great gym with a family atmosphere and some of the best Coaches anywhere in the UK. Classes are suitable for complete beginners (who are never made to feel silly and always looked after) through to top level competitors. Its a very good place to learn Thai Boxing, get really fit and make friends!

t. c.

I was nervous attending a professional gym, full of serious fighters and trainers - I was extremely unfit and overweight. However, it's been a life changing experience, having been made to feel really welcome, by an amazingly friendly bunch of folk. Richard and Lisa have been so supportive and encouraging, and Steve 'Foxy' Campbell has pushed me to a level I didn't think I had in me. I wouldn't train anywhere else now - and can't recommend Bad Company highly enough.

E.

Since the start of our training for UWCB event, Richard, Joe and Lisa have been fantastic! Very friendly environment at the gym and the guys have been helpful and shown great encouragement! Cant wait to compete in the match this weekend and i will definitely keep up the training in the future. Thanks guys :-)

R. S.

I trained here for a white collar boxing event. All of the people there are amazingly friendly and helpful from all of the coaches to the other people who use the gym other than training for this event. I would definitely train there again after this event but sadly the distance may prove a bit much for me.....anyone else make sure you go it's top drawer.

L. G.

Gym full of world champions and beginners all training side by side. Everyone took the time to welcome me & help me to learn. Very friendly trainers with absolutely massive amounts of experience all willing to share their knowledge. Brilliant for kids too with the bad co juniors being amongst the best in the world too.... give it a try you will never look back!!!

C. E.

2 of the beat people I have ever met, down to earth and excellent trainers. Lisa's warmups are brutal but defenitely worth doing. Richards knowledge of boxing and his teaching of the sport is spot on. Deffo worth going down amazing people amazing gym.

B. C.

Top class! Great coaching! Kids being able to meet and interact with world champions and high level pro fighters ....who are brilliant with them. My 7 year old has been training here for around 1 month now and he loves it.

L. J.

A gym run by great people and fantastic trainers with a club run like a part of a family would highly recommend any body to try this gym I thoroughly enjoy my time in this place

J. J.

This place is run by dedicated people in Richard and Lisa who really look after you and care about how you progress. The welcoming nature has made this the stand out gym for me. Top class!

W. 8.

Fantastic gym. Been training here for the past 8 weeks for an ultra white collar boxing event and loved it. The staff work you hard which is just what you need in these fighting sports. Going to sign up to the next event and look forward to more training. Big thumbs up.

My son trains here once a week. We can see a change with his confidence and talking in larger groups since going to this gym

You sweat on a different level at Bad Company and you should seriously re-evaluate how much you love your legs when Lisa is around. Other than that, they taught me loads over the time i trained with them and the whole team is a lovely bunch as well.

J. M.

Brilliant gym! Richard and Lisa (trainers) are brilliant at what they do. Highly recommend this gym to anyone !!

I first signed up to white collar boxing at Bad company gym in Leeds with Richard and Lisa after losing my motivation to exercise and drag my arse to the gym, knowing signing up for this event it would give me an aim to get fit! FIGHT NIGHT! And raise money for an Amazing charity, Cancer Research UK. To be honest it's one of the best things I've ever done! Richard and Lisa are so dedicated to what they do it's unbelievable! And genuinely lovely people who want to help you achieve your goal! I've also made some really awesome friends along this journey that have supported me and I've supported them! So thanks again to Richard Smith, Lisa Smith and Joe Craven for your time! It's been muchly appreciated. Let's hope all the hard work I've put in to this pays off!!
