I have never done any type of martial art/combat sport. Can I attend your sessions?

Yes, of course! Our sessions are tailored to everyone - beginners and the advanced.

How often do you train?

We train three times a week. However, you do not need to attend all three sessions if you do not want to.

The training times are:

Monday 6-7pm (University Sports Hall, Studio 2)

Tuesday 6-7pm (FunctionalFit) We meet at 5pm at iPoint to walk up to the gym together

Thursday 6-7pm (FunctionalFit) We meet at 5pm at iPoint to walk up to the gym together

I am afraid to get hit, I am not interested in sparring or fighting. Can I still attend your sessions?

Absolutely you can. A lot of people in our society do muay thai only to keep fit, reach their fitness goals, stay healthy. You will not be asked to spar, enter competitions, if you do not want to do that.

How do your typical sessions look like?

Our sessions are a mix of bag work, pad drills, as well as conditioning exercises.

Where do you train?

One day a week we train in the University's Sports Hall. The other two times we train in our coach's - Master Jay's gym in Marsh. On the days when we will be training in Master Jay's gym, we will meet in the university, near iPoint and walk up to the gym together. It's approximately a 30 minute walk.

I want to try your society before signing up, can I?

Yes, you can! Every student can attend a three free training sessions to try out our society, the sport, before we ask you to commit to a membership. Please message us to arrange dates when you can come and try the society.

What should I bring to my first training session?

Bring comfortable clothing, that allows free movement (sports bra, t-shirt, shorts). Do not worry about bringing gym shoes as we work out barefoot! However, if you do not feel comfortable with that, we recommend you bring some comfy socks.

Don't forget to bring your water bottle too! If you have thai boxing equipment (gumshield, boxing gloves, shin guards) please bring them with you, but if you don't - do not worry, we will provide you with equipment.

How much is the membership?

The membership for our society is £60.5 a year. This includes three sessions a week for 22 weeks + the social events we will be hosting.
