The short answer
Atlas lists 26 gyms in the Manchester area, and none of the profiles has a class price in its price field (Atlas data, last checked 28 Sep 2026). The only price we found on Atlas is a £50-an-hour private lesson quoted for Master A on the editor's picks page. That is a gap in our data, not evidence that gyms are free or expensive. Two gyms were checked directly on 2 Oct 2026 and are shown below. If you want a figure, ask the gym.
What two Manchester gym pages say (read 2 Oct 2026)
| Gym | Prices as stated on the gym's own page | Trial | Source · date |
|---|---|---|---|
| TKO Gym Manchester Fallowfield | UNKNOWN - membership packages exist but no prices on the page read. | Not stated (kids from age 5) | Gym page read 2 Oct 2026 |
| Athena Muay Thai Ancoats | UNKNOWN - class prices not clear on the page read. | Not stated (a first-booking discount is mentioned; amount unclear) | Gym page read 2 Oct 2026 |
"UNKNOWN" means we could not find a price on the page we read. Master A's site (a gym in our editor's picks) could not be reached from our server on 2 Oct 2026, so it is not covered here.

For a judgement-based view, see the Manchester editor's picks. Each pick links its sources, and the page explains that it is an editorial selection rather than a score.
How far "Manchester" stretches
The Atlas Manchester list includes addresses in Stockport, Bury, Bolton, Worsley and the Rochdale area as well as Manchester itself. Check the address before you commit; a class that is 40 minutes away is a class you will skip in February.
Questions to ask before you pay
Because we cannot show prices here, take this list to the gym:
- What is the monthly price, the drop-in price and the trial price, and is any of it conditional on a contract?
- Is there a joining fee, an annual licence or insurance to pay on top?
- What is the minimum term and the notice period?
- Which classes are for beginners, and when does sparring start?
- What kit do I need on day one, and what can I borrow? (our kit list helps)

FAQs
How much are Muay Thai classes in Manchester?
We cannot give a figure. None of the 26 Manchester gyms on Atlas has a class price in its profile (profiles last checked 28 Sep 2026; the editor's picks page quotes only a £50-an-hour private lesson for Master A), and the two gym pages we read on 2 Oct 2026 (TKO Gym and Athena) did not state class prices clearly. Ask the gym for the monthly and drop-in price in writing.
Which Manchester gyms are the best for beginners?
Atlas does not score Manchester gyms. Our Manchester page is an editor's selection built from sourced facts, not a calculated score, and it labels a 'best for beginners' pick for some gyms. Open it, read the cited source for each gym and try two classes.
Does Atlas Manchester mean the city centre only?
No. The Atlas Manchester list covers the Greater Manchester area. Addresses on the list include Stockport, Bury, Bolton, Worsley and Rochdale-area locations as well as Manchester itself, so check the address and travel time.
Do any Manchester gyms offer kids' classes?
TKO Gym says it teaches children from age 5 (its page, read 2 Oct 2026). Atlas's editor's picks also mark some gyms as best for kids. Ask each gym for the age bands and prices.
