Our Story

About Sitshoothon

More than a gym — a lineage. Named after the legendary Shoothon camp and the Rodriguez brothers, we carry their legacy into every session on the pads.

Where It All Started

The Art of Eight Limbs

The gym specialises in Muay Thai — the art of the 8 Limbs — and the pugilistic form of Boxing. Our trainers are specialists within their disciplines, bringing both extensive coaching experience and real fight credentials.

Located at 27 Phillips Road, Kogarah in Sydney’s south, our doors are always open to anyone eager to learn. We also have a second location in Albion Park.

The Shoothon Legacy
