BRAYDON FIVEASH
HEAD COACH

Coach Braydon, the founder and head coach of the GC Combat Muay Thai program, has built a training culture rooted in passion, discipline, and technical excellence. His journey into martial arts began in his early teens after discovering parkour and free-running, which led him to gymnastics and eventually Martial Arts Tricking — a blend of kicks, flips, and acrobatics. A single Muay Thai class in 2010 ignited a lifelong passion that would shape his career.

After years of dedicated training, Braydon stepped into the ring in 2016, going on to compete in six bouts before injuries prompted an early retirement. Refusing to step away from the sport he loves, he shifted his focus to coaching, using his experience to develop a new generation of fighters.

As the founder of the Muay Thai program, Braydon now leads classes for all ages and skill levels, combining his deep technical understanding with a supportive coaching approach. His leadership continues to drive GC Combat’s Muay Thai community forward, fostering growth, respect, and a love for the art of eight limbs.
