Muay Thai kids classes are designed with safety in mind. For parents who are considering Muay Thai classes for their children, Muay Thai training offers many benefits apart from fitness. Like many Asian martial arts, Muay Thai instills values like respect and humility.

Here are some of the benefits that the kids academy offers:
IMPROVES FITNESS
An active child is a healthy child. Regular Muay Thai training provides a kid with plenty of physical activity and movement. Muay Thai exercises include simple warm ups like skipping to practicing techniques with partners and coaches or heavy bags. Classes usually end with more exercises to help build strength and endurance.
BOOST CONFIDENCE
As kids start to master the techniques and various combinations, they will gain selfconfidence. Confidence can help them take on challenges in school more readily and achieve more as they grow up.
SELF-DEFENSE
Bullying in schools is a global phenomenon. It can be verbal, mental and oftentimes physical. Muay Thai training builds confidence which deter bullies who prey on the weak but also prepares a child with the skills to defend him/herself when an unpleasant or potentially threatening occasion arises.
BUILDS MENTAL TOUGHNESS
Muay Thai training (and trainers) often pushes the practitioners to their limits. Having a coach push and motivate you during exercise can reap far more benefits and achieve more gains than exercising alone. Over time, this helps to build mental toughness or grit which is a driver of success in life.
DEVELOP SOCIAL SKILLS
While it isn’t a team sport, Muay Thai training involves partners as well group exercises to finish up the class. The tough training helps build camaraderie and it becomes even easier to make friends. The group setting provides and encourages kids to develop social skills which is a valuable trait to help maintain positive interaction with others.
