This class explores the traditional roots of Muay Thai through Muay Boran, combining practical self-defence, traditional techniques and the deeper history and philosophy behind the art.
Training goes beyond modern sport Muay Thai, introducing students to older forms, close-range applications, locks, takedowns and traditional weapons training through Krabi Krabong. A unique class for anyone who wants to explore the wider traditional martial art behind modern Muay Thai while developing practical skills, confidence and a deeper connection to its heritage. Suitable for all experience levels.
