What to Expect in Muay Thai Foundations
Each class begins with structured movement and footwork work to build balance and coordination. Techniques are then introduced through clear demonstrations and slow, focused drills.
​
You’ll practise strikes and defence through controlled exercises, with coaches correcting posture, positioning, and timing as you go. Bagwork is used to reinforce technique, not to push pace or power.
The class environment stays supportive and unhurried, giving you time to understand what you’re doing and why.
Why Starting With Fundamentals Matters
Many common issues in Muay Thai come from skipping this stage. Poor balance, inefficient movement, and confusion often trace back to weak fundamentals.
​
Muay Thai Foundations exists to prevent that. By learning stance, footwork, and basic mechanics properly, everything else becomes easier. Students who start here tend to progress more smoothly into Muay Thai Core and other classes.
