Youth Muay Thai
YOUTH MUAY THAI, or Thai Boxing, is an ancient form of martial arts from Thailand. What hockey is to Canada, Muay Thai is to Thailand. Using punches, kicks, knees and elbows, this striking art is the ultimate workout. Our program has been designed specifically for your youth, ensuring that it is practiced in a safe and stimulating atmosphere.
The practice of martial arts is beneficial on many levels. It increases self-confidence, develops physical fitness and well-being, sharpens the mind and most importantly, it is also a lot of fun. These reasons and more are why Evolution has opened its doors to the next generation of martial artists with our Youth Program.
TEAMWORK - Independence and teamwork is encouraged as students are taught to follow individual and partner drills & exercises. Students learn the value of hard work, and dedication through team building exercises.
LOVE - Students learn about culture, life and people through Muay Thai. Rather than depicting Muay Thai as a deadly art, it is taught with the value of loving their fellow peers, families, and their school.
RESPECT - Students learn how to respect one another and themselves. Self discipline and respect are fostered through the expectation of learning to focus on the instructor and learning about Muay Thai & Thai culture.
BELIEVE - Through hard work, students start believing in each other, their teachers, and their school.
CONFIDENCE - Students learn and practice leadership skills and decision making resulting in overall confidence and leadership qualities lacking in most youth today.
FITNESS - Students learn to skip, increase their balance and coordination, and gain functional muscle strength through basic aerobic exercise, resulting in an overall healthier student.
