New Coach:

We’d like to congratulate Mher Z. on his shift to a coaching position.

Mher has been training with us for over 3 years and has accumulated a record of 6-0 with 2 TKOs.

Last year, he stepped in to help us build the teen program as assistant coach and now has moved forward to helping us with our adult program.

Coach Mher teaches Mondays 11AM All Levels and 7PM Beginners Muay Thai.

Speaking of 7PM Beginners, Coach Jordan, who previously taught that class, will be taking a few months’ hiatus to recover from an injury and minor surgery (unrelated to Muay Thai).

Let’s wish Coach Jordan a speedy recovery. We look forward to having Coach back!

As a reminder, we greatly appreciate your help in referring to our coaches as “Coaches” as a way to honor their work towards maintaining our community with their sacrifice of time and effort.

Thank you, Coaches and Congrats Coach Mher!

Coach Vic Lowlight:

If you want to learn techniques that work and a place where your safety is the number one concern, don’t train at TBI.

Book Inspo pt 2:

Howdy,

A little quiet here on the book front but still trying to get it out before the end of the year.

Turns out collaborative work is hard. 🫠

Anyways- Wanted to share some of the graphical elements used for design inspo.

1. Always found simple beauty behind old punk fliers and zines.

2. Silly little labels of embossed last names of my neighbors mail boxes from the apartment buildings I grew up in.

3. All the Muay Thai magazines I grew up looking at while hanging out in the backroom of MTA.

Hoping to bring all that to my book ‘Thai Boxing 101- An Introduction to the Sport of Muay Thai.’

go to thaiboxing101.com to get on the mailing list!

Thanks!

Prying Off the Clinch:

This has easily been one of my favorite defensive techniques I’ve taught in the last few years and it’s really cool to see it being done in practice against clinching but also against long knees.

Repost from a few years ago:

I have this saying... that I try and drill into everyone’s head:

“You don’t have to clinch in a bout, but you still have to know how to clinch.”

Meaning, you still have to wrestle to be a proficient fighter.

This technique is rooted in some VERY basic wrestling fundamentals.

Basic balance pummel.

Basic balance break.

And with a little leverage, you can shuck mofos off of you.

Proof of concept can be found at the end of the video*.

*Recent technique has been slightly modified to account for elbow defense.

**End result is one of many different outcomes to the “shuck.”

Clinch class every Wednesday at 7PM. Come through!

Re: Community

At TBI, all our professional and personal achievements cannot be accomplished without the help of our peers.

Get to know one another, look out for one another, and help each other succeed.
