Will be staying in Chiang Mai for over 4 months and would like to try and keep in shape. One way of doing that would be to take up possibly boxing, muay thai or mma (not fussy) as from the limited experience of had of these in the past they really give you a good work out. Does anyone know of gyms where english is spoken. I have from a perusal on here heard that Chiang Mai University might be a good place to start looking.

Any suggestions of gyms would be appreciated, thanks

The best place for your first visit would be Chiang Mai University Gym. There is Judo there, which I teach, there is also BJJ. A number of these guys train in other gym around Chiang Mai. I'm sure they would be happy to point you in the right direction. Cost for Gym membership is 300 baht?year

Sounds like a great place to start, I will pop along. Many thanks for your input
