💪 Women’s MuayThai at 1UP! 🥊

Today, Dr. Kaileen Lee breaks down the mechanics of the bent-arm press and how to protect your wrists while building strength and control.

Because body mechanics matter. Understanding how your body moves is just as important as the movement itself.

At 1Up, we believe in putting technique before power, always. Master the mechanics, build control, and let the power follow🔥

Strong women. Smart training. Better movement❤️🔥🫶🏼

🥊 Technique breakdown with Coach Kerem

What happens when your opponent checks your kick? 👀

Coach Kerem breaks down how to use a kick fake to set up a teep and catch your opponent off guard. It’s all about timing, distance, and making your opponent react to your setup.

In MuayThai, it’s not just about throwing techniques, it’s about understanding the why behind them💯

Train with purpose. Move with intention🥊

🧘‍♀️ Move with intention. Build control. Connect with your body.

Yoga isn’t just about flexibility. The slower, more intentional movements of YogaMuay allow you to feel the small fluctuations in your balance, muscle activation, breath, and alignment.

It teaches you to move with focus and control while building balance, mobility, flexibility, strength, and a deeper mind-body connection.

And just like in MuayThai, it’s not about simply doing the movement. It’s about understanding why you’re moving the way you are.

✨ YogaMuay at 1Up: where movement, mindfulness, and MuayThai come together. Join us every Wednesday at 6:30am and Sunday at 12:30pm with our amazing instructor Maria Pereira

Yin YogaMuay with Maria Pereira Sundays at 12:30pm and Flow YogaMuay Wednesdays at 6:30am🧘🏻‍♀️

YIN ISN’T JUST STRETCHING. IT’S PART OF YOUR TRAINING🧘‍♀️🥊

After MuayThai, your body has worked hard and your nervous system is still on⚡️

MuayThai is explosive. Powerful. Fast. It challenges your strength, coordination, endurance, and nervous system.

Yin gives you the opportunity to do the opposite🧘🏻‍♀️

Slow down. Breathe. Be still. Let your nervous system come back down. And spend time working on the flexibility and mobility that can help you move better, recover better, and continue doing the things you love.

As a physical therapist, I’ve seen what happens when people wait until their body forces them to pay attention.

Please don’t wait for the herniated disc.
Don’t wait for the fall.
Don’t wait until pain, stiffness, weakness, or loss of mobility starts limiting your life.

Prevention and taking care of yourself NOW matter.

And that is exactly why we created 1Up to be more than just a MuayThai gym.

We want to give you resources. Education. Support. Tools.

🥊 Muay Thai
🧘‍♀️ Yin Yoga
🤸‍♀️ Pilates
🥗 Nutrition
🧠 Mentorship
💪 Recovery & injury prevention

Use them. Please❤️

Our goal isn’t simply to make you better at Muay Thai. It’s to help you become stronger, healthier, more resilient, and more educated about your own body so you can enjoy a higher quality of life for years to come.

We want to educate you. Empower you. And give you the tools to take care of yourself.

Join our amazing YogaMuay instructor who actively practices MuayThai, Maria Pereira every Sunday at 12:30 PM for Yoga Muay Yin, immediately following our 11am MuayThai class.

Your body works hard for you.
Give it the care it deserves❤️

Our very first 1Up Women’s Night Out 💕🥂

What a night! So many laughs, great conversations, and such a beautiful opportunity to get to know the women in our community outside of the gym. I absolutely loved seeing everyone’s personalities, stories, and just getting to enjoy each other’s company beyond training.

At 1Up, we’re here to empower, support, encourage, and lift each other up. We want every woman who walks through our doors to feel comfortable being exactly who she is, in training, outside of training, and in her own skin.

And one of my favorite parts of the night? The brainstorming💡 We talked about what we love, what we can improve, and how we can continue making our classes and our community even better. We’re constantly learning, growing, and trying to become better together.

We’re genuinely proud of the community we’re building❤️ A place where women can come to get stronger, challenge themselves, laugh together, support one another, and feel like they belong.

Thank you to everyone who came out and made our first Women’s Night Out so special and to everyone who continues to be part of this family.

Here’s to strong women, strong community, and many more nights together🥂❤️

And hopefully… we’ll be adding many more beautiful faces to our 1Up family soon. 🥰

Train. Recover. Thrive.

What if you could spend just a couple of hours in the morning investing in your strength, mobility, recovery, and long-term health? 💪🏼

At 1Up, we believe training isn’t just about working harder, it’s about taking care of your body so you can keep doing the things you love for years to come.

Our Thursdays are a perfect example:

🥊 6:30 AM — Muay Thai
🧘🏻‍♀️ 7:45 AM — Rehab-Based Pilates
📍 Dry Needling with Dr. Kai available afterward when needed

And on Saturdays:

🧘🏻‍♀️ 9:00 AM — Rehab-Based Pilates
🥊 Followed by Muay Thai

Two different forms of movement. Two different ways to challenge your body. And when needed, targeted recovery to help you move and perform your best.

Because 1Up Muay Thai Academy is about more than Muay Thai.

We’re about building stronger, healthier bodies, supporting recovery and rehabilitation, reducing injury risk, and helping our community live longer, more active, higher-quality lives.

Train hard. Recover intentionally. Live better❤️🙏
