Mejiro Gym

Mejiro Gym is a kickboxing gym headquartered in Amsterdam in the Netherlands. It was founded in 1978 by Jan Plas, a Dutch kickboxer who had learned the sport from Kenji Kurosaki, the Japanese martial artist who founded the original Mejiro Gym in the Mejiro district of Tokyo. Johan Vos, who later founded Vos Gym, and Lucien Carbin, who founded the FFC, were among the early members of the Amsterdam gym. Its well known fighters include Rob Kaman and Peter Aerts, and it is counted among the big three kickboxing gyms of the Netherlands alongside Chakuriki and Vos Gym. A branch later opened in Leeuwarden in Friesland, and another in Bali, Indonesia, in 2020.
