You might want to try contacting "Wilson", he used to kickbox in Philly.

About 10-12 years ago, Bob Karmel taught Muay Thai at 18th and Chestnut's Center City fitness and martial arts (as an aside, anyone know what Stuart Alston's up to now). Anyhow, after running the Fairtex camp in AZ, he apparently now runs the backalley gym in Chandler AZ, but he might still have some contacts (e.g. his brother) in the area. Last time I checked, the Pennsylvania chapter of Thai Boxing (or something like that; it's Chai Sirisute's organization) still lists him as the head honcho.

Are you looking for schools in center city or one of the suburbs? Haven't trained Muay Thai for a while, but might be able to point you in a direction.
