About the Discipline
Known as the 'Art of Eight Limbs', Muay Thai is the national sport and cultural martial art of Thailand. It is widely considered the most effective striking art in the world. Unlike traditional boxing which only uses punches, Muay Thai utilizes punches, kicks, elbows, and knee strikes, along with devastating clinch fighting.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need to be fit to start Muay Thai?
No! Muay Thai will get you fit. Our coaches adjust the intensity of the pad work based on your current fitness level.
Will I get hurt or bruised?
In beginner classes, there is no hard sparring. You will only hit pads and bags. As you advance and choose to spar, minor bruising on the shins is common but serious injuries are very rare.
What equipment do I need?
To start, just comfortable workout clothes. Later, you will need 16oz boxing gloves, hand wraps, and shin guards.
