Team Toro Janjira Muay Thai — Local services in Westmont

As a mom who is new to the world of Muay Thai, I am so glad we came to this gym. Team Toro from the beginning has been welcoming and such a great experience for us and our boys.

My husband used to train and compete with Ricardo so naturally we came with our boys so they are 2nd generation Team Toro's.

Its not only great physical activity for them but teaches discipline, responsibility, team work and respect for themselves and others. We do have local gyms closer to us but chose to drive the 40 minutes to get there and work with Team Toro Specifically.

I cannot say enough about the gym, the members, trainers, the facility (which is extremely clean) and the owner Ricardo.

Before we started at Team Toro, my boys used to groan whenever they had an activity but now they get sad when we cant make to to the gym. As a mom, I see the positive impact this gym has given the kids and the little family they have created.

Also my oldest son (10) wanted to go to a tournament with Team Toro vs. going to Disneyworld for the first time. My jaw dropped. That's how much this gym means to him.

Cannot recommend...

Ricardo is a phenomenal martial art instructor. I been training with him going on 3yrs this coming September.

He’ll push you beyond your limit only because he’s knows you are capable of greatness even if you don’t see it in yourself yet. I am partially paralyzed on my left arm and leg from a stroke years ago, he always showing me modifications to work around the paralysis and holding me to the same set of standards as my abled teammates , is great in my opinion. Half the time I forget I am partially paralyzed until I have told hold pads lol . If you are willing to learn, he is willing to teach! He invests some much of his time into helping his students weather it’s improving personally as a martial artist or getting an athlete competition...

So I went for a free class yesterday and I have to say zero complaints! The instructors have a very systematic approach to training and truly break things down Barney style. And they teach in a format that allows you to understand the concepts to utilize your body in the most effective way to develop power in your punch. For example, I’ve heard in martial arts forever that when you throw a punch, it’s coming from the ground up. But here there was a practical application for that, and I felt extremely solid in my fighting stance as a result. I pray this was informative enough for you to make your decision to visit. I drove over an hour and it...
