Muay Thai For Ages 12yrs to 14yrs

Our Teens Muay Thai classes are designed to teach the foundations of Muay Thai, before progressing teens into our open adults classes. 

In this sense, the teens classes can be considered a transition pathway, where kids who can competently demonstrate their ability to defend themselves effectively using Muay Thai, and who may wish to work their way towards active competition, can prepare themselves to train in the open age classes.

Teens Muay Thai is taught by some of our highest level Muay Thai coaches as part of our Teens striking program, and these classes support young adults to feel confident in the larger TFC community.

What your teen will learn in Teens Muay Thai Classes

  • Striking techniques using all eight limbs (punches, kicks, knees, and elbows)
  • Defensive moves to avoid strikes
  • Strength and conditioning drills
  • Mental discipline and respect for martial arts
  • Traditional Muay Thai rituals

Muay Thai helps teens build physical and mental toughness, along with the confidence to defend themselves if necessary.

Whether for competition or personal growth, our Teens Muay Thai class is designed to push them to their best.

If you are a parent concerned about your teens safety as they enter high school, or approach a more independent age, then facilitating this 3rd space of learning for them is highly beneficial.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is this class suitable for beginners?

Definitely.  We have many teens in the gym who start training and have never participated in any other sport, and then we have some teens who use this training to compliment the competitive sports they are a part of.

Will teens be sparring?

In the teens class they have a designated sparring day in the week, which you can see in the timetable once you are a member.  The sparring is supervised and guided technical sparring – and of course, it is totally optional.  Our coaches will help to support their students prepare for sparring.

What are the benefits for teens?

Having a 3rd space, outside of school and home that they can can make their own can be super helpful for teenagers as they grow into an identity that best serves their personal goals and potential.

Of course, their physical health will improve with fitness and mind/body connection, helping to support their self confidence, discipline, and the coping mechanisms they use for stress relief.

Can teens progress into adult classes later?

This is the goal – and many teens move into the adults classes fairly quickly from 14yrs and up, but lots of these kids will still come and train in the teens as well, taking comfort from building a community within their own peer group.
