Latest News - Wednesday July 28th

Cage Fights Plymouth - Dan Church has now pulled out of fighting on this show, so it's just Jimmy Regan who is fighting in the Bushido Challenge Cage Fighting event at the Plymouth Oceana this Sunday 1st August. Tickets are now available from your trainer, so please come to support our Jimmy. A new thread has been started on this in the forums here

Camborne Under 14's Class -We've had a situation with the Under 14's Class over the last couple of years where numbers have been very poor after the kids have broken up from from school for the Summer Holidays. We intend to keep this Class running throughout August, but if attendance becomes too low during this period we'll have to temporarily close the Class until the kids go back to school.

August Grading - Be sure to get your name down early, and remember, if you competed in the Interclub, you don't need to spar on your grading!

July Newsletter -The July newsletter is available to read in the forums, and this includes all the dates and info on the August Grading.

What is Thai Boxing? PDF Print E-mail

Muay Thai (มวยไทย) literally translates as Thai Boxing.
The Thai military uses a modified form of Muay Thai called Lerdrit
Muay Thai has a long history in Thailand and is the country's national sport.
Muay Thai is referred to as "The Science of Eight Limbs", as the hands, shins, elbows, and knees are all used extensively in this art. A master practitioner of Muay Thai thus has the ability to execute strikes using eight "points of contact," as opposed to "two points" (fists) in Western boxing and "four points" (fists, feet) used in the primarily sport-oriented forms of martial arts.
