     Muay Thai, or Thai Boxing, is seen as many as the preeminent striking art in the world of competitive fighting. Muay Thai is sometimes referred to as the "Science of Eight Limbs," as fighters are trained to use their shins, knees, elbows, and hands to strike, providing eight points of contact as opposed to the usual two or four in most other striking arts, like Western Boxing (hands) or Western Kick Boxing (Hands & Feet). Muay Thai is the national sport of Thailand, and is heavily practiced all throughout southerwestern Asia. It has seen a huge surge in popularity in recent years in Northern America thanks to numerous professional MMA fighters attributing their winning striking skills to training in Muay Thai.

     It is important to point out that Muay Thai is not to be confused with Cardio Kick Boxing, a popular exercise routine, nor with Western or American Kick Boxing, which is a watered down version of Muay Thai that does not allow for knee or elbow strikes, nor for kicks below the waist. Muay Thai is the real deal - a brutal full-contact striking art that will test your body, mind, and fighting spirit.

     Training in Muay Thai involves arduous physical workouts to build stamina, strength, and speed. Your body undergoes intense physical conditioning, both to prepare your body to deliver bone crushing strikes and to ready it to receive such impacts and shrug them off. Muay Thai also utilizes heavy bags, thai pads, focus mitts, and sparring among other tools to help hone and sharpen technique.

     Whether you're looking to fight competitively or for a intense physical workout to get you in the best shape of your life, Muay Thai has something to offer you. Both the coaches and your fellow students will work with you at your own level, pushing you to excel.
