Muay Thai is a centuries old, battle proven martial art from Thailand. Muay Thai is often called the art of 8 limbs, because we strike with hands (punches), legs (kicks), knees, and elbows. There is some stand up grappling (clinching), but Muay Thai is entirely a stand up striking art.

Waterloo Muay Thai is open to everyone (14+) regardless of fitness or Muay Thai level.
