Cheltenham's New Martial Arts & Fitness Gym
At Vagabond Gym we live for martial arts — and we’re here to share that passion with everyone who walks through our doors.
We offer focused, high-quality training in Muay Thai, kickboxing, boxing, strength and fitness. Our Muay Thai classes run twice a week on Tuesday and Thursday at 6:00pm — open to all levels. We also offer personal training for individuals or small groups (SGPT), tailored to your abilities and built around your goals. Whether you're a total beginner or an experienced fighter, you'll train in a supportive, no-nonsense environment with experienced coaches who care about your progress.
