Kids’ Classes

Our kids’ curriculum focuses mainly on Muay Thai, but also includes Kali/Silat. For Muay Thai, our youth students wear boxing gloves and shin-guards when indicated. Rather than sparring, we train students to strike pads, mits, and bags. Combinations of strikes are taught along with traditional footwork and head movement.

Unlike other forms of striking, Muay Thai teaches students to kick with their shins, and also how to land strikes with the knees and elbows. This makes Muay Thai extremely effective for practical self-defense purposes.

See “Methods” for further details about Kali and Silat.
