Happy Birthday to our lord and saviour, Ajarn Naaron 🎉👑
A man who has passed down endless knowledge, wisdom, and savage training sessions to all his students. We wish him nothing but the best on his special day.
Scientists are still studying how he works this hard, eats this much food, stays shredded… and apparently never needs to use the bathroom. Truly built different.
May your pads stay crispy, your knees survive another year, and your metabolism continue to defy modern medicine. 🙏🔥🥊

It is with a sad heart that we have to say good bye to The Champ, Alie “Demolition Man” Laurel, as he will be travelling to The Rock, Newfoundland for his continued development.
Thank you so much for bringing your experience, knowledge, grit, fitness, kindness and talent to our organization - we are better now for you having shared your time with us.
We are happy for his opportunity, and this storied Canadian island will be one hard stone heavier with the man’s arrival.
The N1 Family hopes to see you back in these hallowed walls before too much time transpires and we look greatly forward to hearing that new Newfie accent!
That being said, the proponents of our sweet science program need not fear, as we have acquired the services of another legend and true student of the game, to fill the hole we will not have to mourn too long.
Please welcome back to the extended N1 Crew John “The General” McMahon.
John had an impressive fight career, spanning years in various disciplines. He is a retired Canadian Armed Forces veteran, the owner of Nomad Kickboxing & boxing, a coach for Team Canada and the sole designer of The Athletic Mindworks sports psychology program - and some other stuff and things.
A few of The General’s boxing credentials include being a NCCP Level 2 Boxing Coach, training with Lennox Lewis’ boxing coach in Toronto and the Grant brothers in Montreal.
The wealth of knowledge McMahon brings to the table is a boon to every student in our family, and brings even more prestige to the N1 name.
Let us give him a warm welcome.

Sad week at N1 as we had to say goodbye to one of our favourite training partners. Pablo Santos is leaving Ottawa to start a new journey in Alberta. He came to Canada in 2010 and was one of Ottawas best coaches and helped grow the sport immensely! We are so grateful for all the knowledge he has shared with us during his time at N1 and we wish him the best in his next adventure!!

Back when the Ajarn Naaron was a wee lad. On his third trip to Thailand. He had the pleasure of training under the legendary Ajarn Apidej Sit-Hirun and Ajarn Jakkit. At the Original Fairtex gym. Circa 98-99.
