Muay Thai, or Thai Boxing, is the unarmed martial art of Thailand. Also known as, “the art of eight limbs”, Muay Thai uses a combination of punches, elbows, kicks, and knees to create a devastating fighting style, as competitive in the ring as it is effective for self-defense. Often resembling Western Boxing with the addition of powerful kicks, Muay Thai utilizes various striking, blocking, and clinch techniques to allow for both offensive and defensive movements against an opponent while standing.

Muay Thai develops proper timing, focus, balance and conditioning. Due to the use of punches, kicks, knees, elbows, as well as technical footwork, Muay Thai offers a complete full-body workout. Through consistent training, you will begin to develop real power, increased endurance, and a thorough method of self-defense, regardless of athletic ability. Premier Combat Center offers instruction in Muay Thai, with introductory, advanced, and competition programs. Our introductory program will teach you the proper footwork, stance, punching and kicking techniques to provide a solid foundation for self defense, as well to progress into our advanced Muay Thai program.
