Suraj is the founder, head coach and manager of Falcon Fitness. His practice brings together Muay Thai, boxing, MMA and functional training, the disciplines he names in his own profile and returns to on the mats.
His training roots include coach Kaushik Boloor and time learning at Tiger Muay Thai. That connection to learning matters: even while running a studio, Suraj’s public posts continue to document pad work, training sessions and encounters with other martial artists, including Judd Reid.
Members describe the other side of his coaching: support, patience and a community that extends beyond a workout. Cycling and hiking sit alongside the training, while Burp Me and Wander Bros give that wider life a place of its own.
Falcon’s story in Manipal goes back to 2016. An early community chapter included a self-defence workshop with KMC and Manipal’s Volunteer Services Organisation that October.
