Meet Manny 🥊

With Chris heading off on paternity leave for a couple of weeks to welcome the newest member of the family, we’ve brought in Manny to keep the morning classes running while he’s away. There will be some small changes to the timetable.

Manny is a coach and fighter out of WA Thai Boxing Centre so has a wealth of coaching and fight experience and we are beyond grateful that Peter has let us borrow Manny during this time, we appreciate the support so much. We know you’ll be in great hands and Manny will be warmly welcomed.

We don’t have exact dates for Chris’ leave just yet, babies have a funny way of choosing their own schedules! So, in the meantime , please make sure you’re booking into your classes so you’re kept up to date with any quick changes. (Especially our morning team!)

We’ll keep everyone updated as we get closer and as soon as baby decides it’s time!

Thanks for your understanding and support while Chris takes some well earned time with his growing family.

A good coach doesn’t just tell you when you’ve done something well. They notice the little things you can’t see yourself, correct bad habits before they become permanent, and help you build skills the right way from the start.

The athletes who improve the fastest aren’t always the most naturally talented they
are the ones who listen, make adjustments, and keep showing up ready to learn.

Progress doesn’t come from doing the same thing over and over. It comes from getting feedback, applying it, and repeating the process.

Come join our team and get the very best coaching!

Too many amazing action shots to choose from Jacks fight on WMF Fight Night so enjoy them all. 🤩

Jack has been very active this year and has worked so hard between each fight to improve and it really showed. Jack started with basics and then in the later minutes come out with some big shots.

What a great performance from a great athlete, we are so proud of the young man Jack is Jack

Thank you to the team for helping Jack prepare and coach Stephen Kirk for all he does. We really hit the coach jackpot!

Massive thank you to our fight team sponsors who make these weekends possible!

Winter makes it easy to fall out of routine, but it’s great to see the Muay Thai crew still showing up and putting in the work tonight. 🥊❄️

If you need a little extra motivation this winter, there’s still time to claim your 7-day FREE trial. Simply follow the link in our bio and sign up before the end of July.

We’ll see you on the mats!

We have taken a while to write this post and have opted to be transparent and stay true to our values because fighting isn’t always glamorous, and it comes with challenges.

Shell, who was having her first fight out of The Athlete at .crown, sadly didn’t get the opportunity to fight. As coaches, we made the decision to pull her from the fight for her own health and safety.

Shell hired a nutritionist to help with her performance. She has made the same weight for her entire career, so it was very achievable. Unfortunately, they couldn’t get her there safely, even after numerous attempts by Shell to say, “This doesn’t seem right.”

These decisions are never made lightly. We felt for the promotion, her opponent Jasmin, and, of course, Shell herself. Shell trained so hard, juggled so much in her life to compete, and paid a lot of money to fly to Melbourne to make the fight possible in the first place.

It was the worst outcome for everyone involved, but ultimately, she lives to fight another day, and that’s the most important thing to us, her family, and her children, who love her.

We didn’t have the best weekend, either personally or professionally. It was a tough time for us. There is no shame in small setbacks. We have learnt lessons and will be better because of them.

As Shell is a new team member, we don’t have a photo of her competing with The Athlete yet, but here is a throwback of Shell with coach and co-owner Jess.

We are in this together, always one team! 🧡🖤
