Muay Thai: Level 2
This class is not for beginners.
Muay Thai Level 2 is the class to attend once you have graded to yellow rank and have acquired the basic skills that are required to make it through this class. Covering the basics of the neck clinch, movement, footwork, attack , defense / counter attack and striking skills this class will teach you the intermediate stages of Muay Thai.
This class covers all the skills required for the third and forth grading ranks (Orange & Green) and is aimed at students who have a good understanding of the basics of Muay Thai. Many of the higher rank students train in this class to brush up on the finer points of a particular combination or technique and to further improve on their skills.
You will learn how to move and create angles, how to use the neck clinch and knee, how to strike the pads and bags with precision, how to hold the pads to get the most from your training, traditional Muay Thai defense / counter attack moves and how to spar using the offence and defensive techniques that you have learned.
There is a moderate amount of contact in this class so personal protection and padding will be required. You must have a mouth guard. The Academy does supply shin pads and gloves for your use but we strongly recommend having your own that fit correctly. Any equipment that you may require can be purchased at the Academy’s on premises shop.
