Travelling from Kata beach to train

Ken — Sun, 15 Nov 2009 09:34:20 GMT

What's the best way to get to Tiger Muay Thai from Kata Beach? How much would a tuk tuk cost and how long would it take?

Cheers,

Ken

Party with the camp?

Kalle — Fri, 13 Nov 2009 23:24:21 GMT

Hi, I will be at Tiger trying my best to loose weight from the end of Jan to the end of May, but I am wondering if ppl usually go out to party/"go clubbing" on saturday nights, since you have the day off on sundays? I really enjoy training, even tho you might not think it by looking at me, but I really enjoy going out as well. But it is no fun going by yourself.

Boxing

James Halliday — Thur, 12 Nov 2009 20:48:47 GMT

Hi guys.
I am comming to thailand in march for 2 and a half months, for 2 months i want to train and im fairly certain i want to do it at tiger.

I am starting my basic training in the RAF at the end of may and have been boxing now fairly intensely for about 6 months, i am really wanting to try out for the RAF boxing team....

I want to come and get as fit as i can before starting my training, i was wondering if it was possible for me to concentrate a little more on just western style boxing? I would like to learn some basic muay thai but my main focus is on my fitness and my boxing.

Sorry if this is a stupid / ignorant question i know it is a muay thai gym and i mean no disrespect to the gym or the sport.

Thank you

Congrats TMT guest Nate Moore--win on Strikeforce FEDOR card

Magicalray — Sun, 08 Nov 2009 17:25:51 GMT

Just wanted to say congrats to former TMT alumni Nate Moore.

Nate came out with Jon Fitch a year ago to train at Tiger Muay Thai.

Already an accomplished wrestler at the university of Purdue, Nate wanted to fine tune his Muay Thai striking...and knew TMT was the best place to do that.

Now 6-1 in professional MMA, with his latest win coming on the Strikeforce-FEDOR card shown on CBS...it looks like the hard work is paying off

Congrats

Below is a link to a video interview Nate did on his training experience at TMT...

Detoxing for 7 days

Ryan — Sat, 07 Nov 2009 02:58:30 GMT

Gday

Has anyone have feedback on the Detox place down the road? Looks to good to be true LOL...

detox?

enashka — Fri, 06 Nov 2009 17:36:41 GMT

Hello, I am seriously considering spending a month at TMT in January to cleanse my body while practicing Muay Thai.

Here's the deal, I used to do martial arts as a kid but I am now a heavy smoker and regular stoner. I work in a stressfull field and I'm always all over the place. It has taken a toll on my mind and body (my lungs constantly hurt, and I'm just 26).

Knowing myself, the only way for me to kick out the bad habits is to enter a strict discipline in a different environment with a healthy routine supervized by professionals on my back.

There is no way I can change here in Paris, with the lifestyle i lead, that's how weak minded I am, but I want to change that, desperate for this change, ready to commit in the right setting.

What's that detox program? Can that help me quit smoking, along with the intense physical training and get my mind straight?

Overall is TMT a good place for me?

Thanks everyone and maybe see you soon.
