Muay Thai

This martial art, which originated in Thailand, differs from wushu or karate in the absence of formal technical complexes that determine the sequence of strikes and movements. The basic technique of Muay Thai involves throwing a combination of 2-3 punches with fists, elbows, knees, shins and feet. In the Thai boxing section of the 5th Element fitness club in Kyiv, you will be able to master the basic techniques of this martial art, improve your physical fitness, acquire the skills necessary for self-defense and develop qualities that will be useful in everyday life.

Features of Muay Thai training in a fitness club

Muay Thai training for adults is suitable for women and men who do not like to exercise at a calm pace, but prefer to perform exercises at the maximum rhythm with the greatest intensity. Features of Thai boxing classes included in the fitness club program include:

• the main emphasis is on the development of endurance - much attention is paid to improving this physical indicator from the very first Thai boxing lessons for beginners. Cardio training includes interval running, jumping on tires, as well as exercises with bags, paws, pads and other exercises such as lunges with alternating legs or push-ups, performed at a jagged pace;
• special exercises that develop the explosive strength necessary to deliver swift and powerful blows. Having mastered such abilities, you will be able to use your body’s resources sparingly, while getting the maximum return;
• practicing fast, lightning-fast movements using a special technique that allows you to achieve a much greater effect than when doing any other type of fitness;
• dynamic and static exercises aimed at breathing control.

During Thai boxing classes in fitness clubs, various techniques and striking techniques are studied and practiced, of which there are much more in this type of martial arts than in any other martial discipline.

Muay Thai training can be considered a full-fledged form of fitness, since all muscle groups are involved in the classes, and there are different types of loads: aerobic, anaerobic, interval and hypoxic.
