WHAT IS MUAY THAI
Thai boxing is the ancient art of Muay Thai developed
in Thailand to keep soldiers fit with a competitive edge for battle,
dating
back over 2000 years. It has now evolved into a sport where there
is the use of 8 weapons, hands, feet, knees and elbows.
This class, having done some kickboxing, will teach you the
finer points of how to punch kick, elbow and then how to put
together the destructive combinations that Thai boxing is known
for. This class has some contact enabling the defensive and offensive
to be practiced but in a safe environment where the potential
for injury is at a minimum.
Now, we keep an ancient art but teach it with modern coaching
methods. Unlike the soldiers that used this to prepare for war,
it is now one of the best cardio work outs in the world, great
way to defend yourself and an even better way to increase flexibility
and confidence.
