At Octagon Academy Bucharest we teach it step by step, from stance and footwork to combinations on pads and the bag. It's one of the most complete striking sports for fitness and self-defence. Your first lesson is free.
What is Muay Thai
Muay Thai is Thailand's national sport. You work with all of the body's weapons - punches, kicks, knees and elbows - and in the clinch. It's a complete and highly effective workout.
Muay Thai vs. kickboxing
Kickboxing uses punches and kicks. Muay Thai adds knees, elbows and clinch fighting, with a different guard and rhythm. If you want the most complete striking sport, Muay Thai is the right choice.
Can I start without experience?
Yes. Beginners work on technique on pads and the bag, and contact with partners increases gradually. You don't need experience or a particular level of fitness.
