All classes are progressive, which means you can work at a pace that suits you. No-one will ask you to do anything you can’t cope with or that you feel uncomfortable about doing.

We’ll teach you basic fighting stance, authentic Thai footwork, how to punch, kick , knee and use your elbows exactly like the pro Thai fighters do in Thailand. We’ll also teach you the best defensive system ever devised.

Each day you’ll learn a different aspect of Thai-Boxing, might be a punch or one of the devastating Thai kicks using your shins, or smashing elbows or how to use your knees as a weapon! Our Instructors will teach you the proper mechanics of each technique, how to develop power, speed and deadly accuracy. You’ll definitely notice a massive improvement in your fitness.

Thai-Boxing will make you will feel stronger and more confident, you will also develop more speed and stamina (you’ll have bags of energy). The flexibility training you will do as part of your class will improve your posture and enable your body to move in ways you didn’t think possible.
