Muay Thai
get fit and learn the art of thai kickboxing with us. we have a strong focus on technique and form.
Muay Thai, which translates to thai boxing, is known as the “Art of 8 limbs” because it makes use of 8 points of contact namely, punches, elbows, knees and kicks. This differs it from other stand-up combat sports such as boxing (2 points - fists) and karate (4 points - fists and feet).
brazillian jiu jitsu
one of the most effective martial arts for self defence, brazillian jiu jitsu (BJJ) does not rely on strength or size. rather it’s all about technique and leverage.
BJJ is predominantly ground-based and uses the principles of leverage, angles, pressure and timing, as well as knowledge of the human anatomy, in order to achieve a non-violent submission of one’s opponent. Unlike other martial arts that focus on strikes and/or kicks, jiu jitsu focuses on close-contact “grappling” holds and techniques, and the application of chokes and joint-manipulations.
