Kicking off the New Year with training.
A little about our story: We had no teacher. We didn't have muay Thai experience. We taught ourselves and began competing after a few months.
We're not a martial arts gym, but personal trainers. Our setup is an office gym and some roll-out mats. No bags, no pads, just a few dedicated clients who were willing to try a play-based approach to learning.
After the pandemic and thinking about life and the possibilities of death, some clients wanted to pursue more with their bodies. Rather than thinking about it as a vehicle for appearance, they saw it as a means for experience and adventure. You only live once. And you can see that, all around, fewer people are interested in conventional gyms, while more are participating in adult sports and outdoor activities. People want to know they tried it all. So we adapted with our clients.
