    There's plenty of choice in Dublin. Have a look at these site and take your pick. There's a lot more MMA gyms around Dublin but this is a good place to start.

    North Dublin City -
    www.mmaireland.com
    http://rushfightacademy.com
    http://informedperformance.com
    www.bjjrevolutionireland.com

    South Dublin City -
    www.nextgenerationireland.com
    www.sbgireland.com

    For Muay Thai take a look at -

    www.bridgestonemuaythai.com
    www.chupasart.com

    Again there are more Muay Thai gyms in Dublin (I think) but start with these two.

    Good luck.

    If you go too any of the above mentioned clubs and train hard you will learn lots of new skills and improve your fitness, ive tryed both MMA and MuayThai and far prefer muaythai but thats just me, maybe try both and see what you like and go from there, boxing is always great for fitness also but you may find it hard to get a club to train in, best of luck.

    I've only ever trained at Kokoro (www.mmaireland.com) so I can't comment on the other gyms. I think it's safe to say though that they all would have a weights area as well as various weights routines. Also, Kokoro and Informed Performance offer free classes, the others might too but I don't know for sure, so why not get in touch with the various coaches and arrange to drop down to the ones you like best (or all if you have the time).
    With regards to prices I think it's best to discuss that with the coaches, but for a rough estimate usually about €60 - €80 per month. Some might be less but I don't know.
