Why Khao Lak Muay Thai & Muay Boran?

Our trainers are expert pad-holders, they've each trained other pro-fighters, and will adapt to your level and training style.

During the padwork, you will learn the correct form and technique, and the trainers will help correct any imperfections. As each lesson passes you will notice that you become stronger, fitter and more efficient at delivering the strikes.

You'll also notice that the lesson flew by, and you won't feel like you've been burning the calories. Laughing and smiling this hard doesnt feel like training!

Of course, if you're a fighter or an intermediate to pro Nak Muay, the trainers have a serious mode. They'll focus fully on taking your skills, fight smarts and all round game to the next level

Bag-work is an important element of training Muay Thai. During our group classes, students will have 4-5 rounds on the bags where they can hone their technique, power and timing

Sparring is an essential part of training Muay Thai, or any combat sport, if you want to be able to use it effectively. This is where your hard-earned skills are refined and your reactions honed. Smashing the pads and heavy bags will help perfect your technique, but sparring is where it all comes together. Combining strikes, defense and movement all at the same time

At Khao Lak Muay Thai & Muay Boran, we actively encourage our students to engage in sparring either with the trainers or with each other in the group classes. Our trainers will ensure that a safe, controlled environment is maintained at all times

Muay Thai will take your fitness to the next level, absolutely no question about that! The sheer calorie burn over the course of an hour on the pads or heavy, your body will be forced to adapt and optimize its energy systems. 

Even casual training will reap many benefits, if you combine it with a sensible diet. For the more serious students, training consistently will shift the pounds in super quick time, as the combination of movement, power strikes, and the heat and humidity of the tropics all bring your body out of its comfort zone. Its not uncommon for students to drop 2-3 lbs (1-1.5kg) a week, some even more
