Many people teach Muay Thai and kickboxing but not many of these instructors have the certification behind their teaching. This is essential when teaching the art of Muay Thai, which has been proven to be the most effective form of stand-up fighting that there is!
Advanced BKJ is backed by an official Muay Thai instructor of Master Toddy, Leon Ramsey, and the only official Muay Thai instructor in the state. This instruction has enabled Advanced BKJ to become the most successful Muay Thai and kickboxing gym in the state. The Glenville gym, The Dawg House, and the home gym of Advanced BKJ host the only IKF champions in the history of West Virginia. Their record in sanctioned Muay Thai and kickboxing matches is unparalleled!
Boxing
Our boxing program has also proven to be top notch. It doesn’t matter if you’re a physically fit person or if your last participation in sports is playing pokerstars poker games, our instructors can help you achieve your fitness goals and improve your boxing skills. We feature many amateur champions that have won state, regional, and sectional Golden Gloves titles. These champions also include “Rough and Rowdy” Champions as well as “Toughman” champions.

Let me start out by saying that i am a mother of four small children my oldest Malachi 6, Hannah 4, Nathan 3, Sadie 9 months. We haven't been a part of Butch's gym long but i can say that i know we are family! My husband and i were first introduced to the gym by his cousin Stuart Green, who also trains there. My husband, Fred Miller, decided that he was going to start going to classes. My husbands goal was not to get into competitions it was actually to get into better shape for his regular pt test. Then we learned that Butch was offering a class for children as well. At first i was a bit hesitant because i have a crazy 6 year old hes very loud and very hyper with a bad temper so i was worried that i would be embarrassed just like i had in the past when he was in other activities. I talked to Butch and let him know how Malachi behaved and he reassured me that himself and his teachers could deal with Malachi and help me help Malachi through all of this.
