I started at Morakot about one month ago and was hooked after one class. I have in the past been a member of a gym but was lacking the motivation to go so I started at Morakot. I used to be a competitive swimmer and loved the club atmosphere and found that same club atmosphere at Morakot. The trainers are all so encouraging and helpful and the other members are also very welcoming, helpful and encouraging. I love the hard workout you get after a training session and how after each class I feel more and more confident in my skills and fitness.

I started Muaythai here quite a while ago and absolutely fell in love with it. It was something I did not expect myself to enjoy but I think the combination of the sport and the environment here at Morakot, it is hard not to want to show up every day once you start. It was exciting being invited to start training with the fighters team after training hard in the beginners class. It was a great experience training with those who had many years of experience over me, but it is definitely the best way to learn. However, I am in and out of training here due to my work and studies but everytime I return it after months of not being around everyone makes you feel welcome and like you never left.

I started looking into alternative HIIT classes to improve my cardiovascular fitness after two episodes of coronary stenting. During my research I found the website of Morakot Muay Thai Gym in Epping. Not knowing what to expect, I started off with one class on a Saturday to see if this is for me. I was surprised by the friendly welcome as a ‘new guy’ and the camaraderie between the athletes and the respect shown between each other. The trainers took their time individually showing their students the technique required. I must admit, that I didn’t know anything about Muay Thai boxing, other than it was an ancient Thai combat art now the national sport of Thailand. I was very intrigued after my first lesson and planned to do it once a week to improve my cardio fitness. Never thought in my wildest dreams that I get ‘hooked’ on Muay Thai. Over the next couple of weeks and month my appetite grew, where I started going twice a week, then three times a week, till I took up the unlimited membership option and currently train 5-6 times a week.

Initially I wanted to start Kickboxing as a way of learning self defence and a fun way to keep fit. I didn’t find any Kickboxing gyms locally and found Morakot instead. I was under the impression that Muay Thai and Kickboxing were virtually the same however since starting training at Morakot I’ve discovered that they are quite different. I am now completely mesmerised by the art of Muay Thai. The students and trainers are a vital part of the journey. Everyone is there to help you along the way. I plan to practice Muay Thai for many years to come.
