The art of Muay Thai (AKA Thai Boxing) is a not only a
competitive sport known worldwide, but a great workout for
anyone looking to enhance their fitness level and learn
effective standup self defense techniques. Muay Thai is a
form of kickboxing that involves boxing combinations, knees,
kicks, and elbows.
We follow a Ranking
System similar to the Muay Thai Institute of Thailand’s
Grading Structure of 6 Grade Levels.
There are 6 Major Components that our Instructors use for
assessment, to graduate a dedicated student from one Rank to
the next. The 6 Components in no specific-order are:
#1: Attitude
#2: Team-Work
(Cooperation)
#3: Performance
(Consistently working HARD! High Intensity/Effort at every
class attended!)
#4: Techniques &
Related Skills (i.e Knowledge of Curriculum)
#5: Conditioning
and Improved Fitness Levels
#6: Attendance &
Commitment (Specific Time Requirements)
Our Level 1 Muay Thai Kickboxing Class
is perfect for the beginner and is one of our most popular
classes. It will train and challenge you mentally and
physically. You will develop offensive and defensive tools
which will prepare the practitioner for all the other
classes we offer as well as for the "street." This is a safe
class that will increase the student’s level of fitness with
Boxing & Muay Thai techniques, along with partner drills
involving Focus Mitts and Kicking Pads.
Our Muay Thai System is unique. No other school (that we are
aware of) has developed a Program which allows students to
learn and develop their skills in such a rewarding and
effective manner. The system allows the student to
physically develop flexibility, balance strength and
confidence with each new Rank (i.e Level). Each new rank
brings the student one step closer to the ultimate goal in
our system: Self-Actualization and The Rank of Level 6 (i.e
“Black Belt” in other Martial-Arts Styles).
How Our Program Works
The student begins with a Rank of “Level 1”. Every one of
our students is given an attendance card, where their
attendance is monitored and marked down for the amount of
classes the student has attended. In order for the Level 1
student to be assessed for a “Progress Check” at Level 1, a
student must have at least a minimum of 25 classes. To be
given eligibility to take the Level 1 to Level 2 test for
rank advancement, a student must have at least a minimum of
45 classes. Testing and/or Progress Checks are to be
held either on the last Friday of every month at 5:45 pm
until 8:00 pm or on the last Saturday of every month from
11:45 -1:00 pm. Dates are posted on our schedule.

Boxing
We also offer traditional boxing classes to complement the
Muay Thai training curriculum as well as our MMA program.
All instructors have either trained and/or competed in
western style boxing. A great deal of the techniques
used in the Muay Thai curriculum involves the use of hands,
foot and body movement.
