about us
We are the Barrera family; we arrived in Tulum 23 years ago. Sports have always been part of our lives, which is why Tulum Fight Club (initially called Tulum Fighters) was born 11 years ago.
We are delighted to be training people passionate about Muay Thai and Boxing, who we now consider part of our family.
