As a coach, when your newer students start trying new techniques they’ve learned (usually from you) and they land, celebrate with them. High five’em, Tell them strong work, and keep going at their pace (or juuussssttttt above it). Dont make them pay for doing what you’ve taught them to do and make them into personal bashing toys. Build confidence in your students and fighters don’t tear them down when they try something new on you, you taught them to do it!!

I made the trip to the Wat today to see the monks and have our gym, mongkons, pra jaids, Phuang Malai’s, personal mongkon and prajaids, Grant Miller’s mongkon and prajaids, along with my ollllllddddddd school prajaid and Love’s collar to be blessed by the Buddhist monks.

They prayed for us to show courage and no fear in the face of our advisories, many showings of good skill, and to win championships.

One monk was a reformed Thai boxer from Thailand with over 35 fights.

May 1-3, Louisiana Shreveport regional TBA style tournament, empty brackets close on friday. Louisiana gyms you’re letting us down. Sign up or they probably won’t come back. Even if you’re scared. Sign up. If your gym says it has a Muay Thai program and you’re not attending, you’re doing a solid disservice to the sport in our great state louisiana and its embrassing. Show up, compete, get better, grow the sport. If you’re that scared about losing, you’re in the wrong sport. If you are a coach and you’re not encouraging your studnets to attend, you probably need to be rethinking if you have an actual “muay thai” program. Don’t hate me for being the one to tell you that.

If ur gym says it has a Muay Thai program and its local to lafayette, you’re doing your students a massive disservice by not attending exhibitions events like SMTDI #14 this weekend on the 14th. Whether it be just for experience or to prepare for a fight or the TBA’s themselves… not attending puts your students at an immediate disadvantage. Your students need this, they need the experience, they need the cardio, they need the pressure, they need to know what it feels like to be in there more than once in a day, they need to hear your voice over a crowd, they need it to not count on their records while they figure it out, they need to FEEL it. It’s your job to make this happen for them.
