Muay Thai: Level 3
This class is not for beginners.
Muay Thai Level 3 is the class to attend once you have graded to green rank and have acquired the intermediate skills that are required to make it through this class. Covering tricks from the neck clinch, advanced movement and footwork, attack, defense / counter attack and striking skills this class will teach you the advanced stages of Muay Thai.
This class covers all the skills required for the final three grading ranks (Blue, Red & Black) and is aimed at students who have a good understanding of the intermediate skills of Muay Thai. This class is only for the higher rank students as all techniques are at an advanced level.
You will learn how to move and create angles, how to use the neck clinch with elbows and knees, the destructive combinations that Muay Thai is known for, how to strike the pads and bags with precision in a sparring type situation, how to hold the pads and read your opponent so as to get the most from your training, traditional Muay Thai defense / counter attack moves and how to spar using the advanced offence and defensive techniques that you have learned.
There is a moderate to high amount of contact in this class so personal protection and padding will be required. You will need a mouth guard, shin pads, groin protection and 12oz or larger gloves to participate. Any equipment that you may require can be purchased at the Academy’s on premises shop.
