Zarius' Journey: From Shy Beginner to Confident Young Warrior 🥊
Thai Boxing In Schools
Enhancing Well-being and Academic Success through Muay Thai
Our school clubs and Intervention are an exciting children's martial arts programme, aimed at character building and life skills development taught through Martial Arts training.
What do they learn?
Our after-school clubs have been developed to give a foundation for every element of Muay Thai. Our unique teaching method allows students to benefit from both a school club and academy training.
Students will be instructed on self-defence training, which involves correct attacking tools, stances, strikes, and blocks. The techniques taught, are all taken from active Muay Thai professionals and have been adapted to benefit children who can further develop their training at our academy.
What will they achieve?
Each term, students will learn a mixture of individual techniques and a variety of self-defence skills specially designed for realistic situations in which children find themselves.
Alongside the physical training, each student will also achieve valuable life skills. These include a positive attitude, confidence, kindness, responsibility, focus, anti-bullying and avoiding conflict.
The after-school club will give each child the foundation necessary to progress into our academy that partners with their school club training.
