01

Learn Real Striking

Learn proper punches, kicks, knees, defence, timing and pad work step by step through Muay Thai and striking fundamentals.

02

Get Fit Doing Something Real

Build cardio, strength, coordination and endurance through real martial arts training — not another repetitive workout.

03

Build Confidence

Develop practical skills at your own pace in a supportive training environment.

04

Take Your Striking Further

Already have experience or want to progress? Develop higher-level Muay Thai and kickboxing technique, then move toward intermediate or competitive training if that's what you want.

Why Dream Fighters

More Than a Fitness Class.

You don't have to choose between getting a great workout and learning a real martial art.

Start Where You Are

Begin recreationally and build fitness, confidence and skill. If you eventually want intermediate or competitive Muay Thai, there is a path forward.

Beginner-Friendly Training

New to Muay Thai or kickboxing? Start with fundamentals and progress at your own pace.

Muay Thai + Kickboxing

Build your striking from the ground up with punches, kicks, defence, timing and combinations. Training can include Muay Thai and kickboxing-focused work depending on the class.

Authentic Muay Thai

Learn legitimate Muay Thai technique and striking fundamentals — not choreography or cardio-only combinations.

International Experience

Learn strong fundamentals from Kru Pedro's training and fight experience in Canada, Brazil and Thailand.

Home at PTT Vancity

Training takes place inside Pacific Top Team Vancity, an established Vancouver martial arts academy.
