Where can i eat nearby the camp ?

Phuket Top Team MMA Training camp does not and this point in time offer an on site restaurant. Our focus is on the training facilities for now. The name of the street Phuket Top Team resides on is Soi Tadied, this street currently has 9/10 restaurants or bungalows with attached restaurants that offer Western food, thai food and certain restaurants offering healthy fighters meals.

Our first suggestion is Tonys Restaurant (100 metres from Phuket Top Team) Tonys offers a Healthy Fighters Menu and meals are the cheapest you will find in Phuket (roughly 40/80 baht a basic meal) Along with Tonys you will find JaJa’s, mummas restaurant and a number of other restaurants on the street that will also offer healthy meals that are oil free and protein enriched.

There is no “set” meal plans with Phuket Top Team. This means you are free to eat where you want and when, so you do not find yourself bored of the same menu after a week or so.

Do i need to speak Thai ?

English is a mandatory language in Thai schools, so most local Thai people speak and/or understand some English. If you wanted to learn basics it is considered very polite and will help you on your stay.

If you would like to study Thai there are two schools in Chalong (signing up to a learning Thai course can also get you a 1 year visa - without the need to leave the country)

Can i become a pro MMA or Muay Thai fighter?

Absolutely, Phuket Top Team will have both an MMA and Muay thai fight team. For those who show dedication and talent in either MMA or Muay Thai there may be possibilities to become a Sponsored Phuket Top Team MMA Training Camp - fighter. This can be anything from Free training up to Free Training, rent assistance and booking you fights in Thailand and across the globe.

Where can i use the internet/ do laundry and rent a motorbike?

Wi-Fi internet is available at the camp free of charge, just ask for the network key in the office. There are many internet cafe’s and Wi-Fi Hotspots around Phuket. Internet cafe’s are cheap and usually have very fast connection.

Motorbikes can be rented through the camp and virtually anywhere around the island. A valid passport and drivers license is required.

Laundry service is available at the camp and very affordable. Write your name on a piece of paper and put it in a bag with your clothes and they will be returned, pressed and folded, within 1-2 days.

How do i organise staying longer / getting visa?

The Visa laws seem to change so often there is no single answer.

Basically it depends on what country you are coming from (certain countries can get a 1 year visa before they come out)

Upon arriving in Bangkok or Phuket, you will be issued a 30 day tourist visa if you did not acquire one before leaving your home country. When your 30 days are over, you will be required to leave and re-enter Thailand in order to stay for another 15 days to 3 months. Studying Muay thai and studying the Thai language is a great way to get a 1 year visa.

www.thaivisa.com is a great site to get up-to-date information on Visa extensions and applications. Visa runs can be made easily to Burma, Malaysia, singapore and even cambodia / laos / vietnam.
