Muay Thai Program
Tradition + Versatility
In today’s digitalized society, most kids end up spending a lot of time in front of a screen, whether it is a phone, computer, tablet or a tv. This makes it even more important to make sure that they get the amount of physical activity that they need, not only for their physical health and well-being, but just as much for their ability to focus, pay attention and learn new things. In our Kids Programs we incorporate a lot of warm-up exercises and games that are designed to develop the kids’ general motor skills, coordination, balance and posture, while keeping the class fun and exciting for them. They’ll burn a lot of energy and get to do the physical activity that is so important for their development, while having a good time and making new friends. In Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, the kids will learn how to pay attention and listen to what the teacher’s is saying, our classes will have a relaxed and fun environment, but the students are expected to follow the teacher’s instructions, and will develop both discipline and increased ability to focus and learn new skills.
Muay Thai program
In our Muay Thai program, students learn how to fight on their feet using strikes, which also makes it the perfect complement to our BJJ program where most of the training takes place on the ground using grappling techniques. You’ll learn how to throw punches, kicks, elbows and knees, how to block strikes and how to use correct footwork and how to control the distance between you and your opponent. Rather than being a Cardio Kickboxing class where the focus is on burning calories and not necessarily the technique, in our Muay Thai program, students will learn proper Muay Thai technique. During the class, students work on the heavy bags, thai pads and focus mitts, and as they get more experienced, they will start doing more advanced techniques and combinations. Advanced students will have the opportunity to do sparring as well, but you can also choose to just work out with the bags and mitts.
