Why train Muay Thai? Octopus in design, Muay Thai (often called Thai boxing) is an “8-limb beast” that challenges and fatigues all the major muscle groups. No limbs remain idle or go to waste. From kicking, punching and elbowing to delivering a fierce knee strike, Muay Thai has all bases covered. Muay Thai really is total body conditioning. This means you’ll take your cardio fitness to another level, become increasingly confident as your skills develop and improve, and oh, yes… you’ll need to bring a towel… Muay Thai is mad for consuming calories and this means you’ll get a serious sweat on everytime!
