THE ART OF EIGHT LIMBS
Originated in Thailand over 500 years ago as a form of military combat. It evolved from an older martial art called Muay Boran, which was used by soldiers to fight when weapons were lost in battle.
​
It became not only a method of self-defense but also part of Thai culture, tradition, and national identity. Over centuries, it transitioned from the battlefield to the ring, eventually becoming a regulated sport with gloves, rules, and weight classes.
​
It’s called The Art of Eight Limbs because it trains you to strike using:
​
-
2 fists
-
2 elbows
-
2 knees
-
2 shins (kicks)
That’s double the striking tools compared to boxing and each one can deliver knockout-level power.
Real-World Functionality
Every technique is built for power, balance, and control. There’s no wasted movement, each strike, block, and clinch is practical and effective under pressure.
The Clinch Game
Muay Thai fighters master the clinch, a close-range grappling position where they control opponents with knees, elbows, and sweeps. This makes it extremely useful in MMA, where transitions between striking and grappling are key.
Empowering Environment
Train in a motivating, supportive atmosphere where discipline and determination meet teamwork. Every session pushes you to be your best.
Mental Toughness & Focus
Beyond the punches, you’ll develop sharp mental focus, resilience, and the ability to stay calm under pressure with lessons that go far beyond the gym.
