Mahurangi Muay Thai

After much deliberation I have made the decision to move the Muay Thai club to a new venue in Albany, by the mall.

The session times will be Mon's & Weds 7:00-8:00pm.

I realise the relocation will not be feasible for some members and l'm disappointed that I will not be able to continue to see you guys improving. However the move to a great premises in a central location will undoubtedly be positive in the long run for the club.

If you are not able to make the drive to Albany, please consider joining Contact Striking at Snells Beach with Daniel.

Thanks for a great couple of years, please get in touch if you have any queries.

Hi everybody! I'm back onboard after a great Xmas hol.
I hope you're all well.
I am having problems finding a venue, my timetable has changed again.
I will confirm class times & locations in a few days.

Cheers Kru Ben

Oh well, that's it for this year! Happy Xmas & thank you for attending.

I'll get in touch next year to confirm the date we will restart Term 1.

Another successful example of 'our style'.
Minimalist! Strickland does the minimum required to evade Izzy's shots. Nothing fancy- just shoulder rolling out of range & jamming the hands.

When am I ready to fight?

At least once a week I do an ask me a question on instagram and one of the reoccurring questions I get asked is “when do I know I’m ready to fight?”

The thing is everyone develops at different rates, so from a skill/physical stand point, this is an impossible question to answer as it could be different for everyone. I personally just respond with that they need to talk to their coach.

Now for me, there’s a number of things that I must see before I even entertain the idea of someone competing.

Obviously the skill factor has to be there but to fight and get anywhere you need much, much more.

I look at if the student is training regularly

I look at if the student is on time for training

I look at if they are respectful to their fellow gym peers

I look at if they help their fellow gym peers

I look at if they come and train in their own time

I look at if they can follow instruction during class.

I look at if they push themselves in training

All these things build positive traits such discipline, dedication and just to simply be a good person and all these attributes are beneficial in other areas of your life, not just in the ring.

50 kick challenge. I love this test. It's a really measurable way to monitor progress. My goal is to maintain power & speed throughout ALL 50 kicks - and not blame someone else for loosing count 😆
