Muay Thai For Beginners
The Beginners Program at Evolve Vacation is catered towards students with no previous Muay Thai experience. Everyone is welcome. Athletic experience is not necessary and fitness levels can be at zero. Students in the Beginners Program will be taught the fundamentals of Muay Thai starting with basic stance, movement, and footwork. Once your foundation is secure, we will advance to basic punches, Muay Thai elbow strikes, kicks, and knee strikes. Basic defensive techniques will be taught in conjunction with the basic offensive attacks.
In addition to building a solid Muay Thai foundation, our Beginners Program will also help develop physical strength and cardiovascular endurance. The classes will be physically challenging, but also manageable for beginners. Each individual student’s physical conditioning will be taken into account by our World Champion instructors, and the pace of their training sessions will be adjusted accordingly.
Most newbies will spend the length of their stay in the Beginners Program, building a solid foundation of technique, strength, and conditioning. In some cases, students with excellent work ethic and talent will move through our Beginners Program and advance into the Intermediate Program rather quickly. Our World Champion Muay Thai instructors will advance students to higher level classes based on their discretion.

- Casual martial artists seeking to learn world-class Muay Thai

Muay Thai For Intermediate Students
The Intermediate Program at Evolve Vacation is geared towards students with previous experience in Muay Thai training. Students in the Intermediate Program are expected to have a solid foundation of Muay Thai skills and a basic mastery of the fundamentals. The pace and intensity of the training sessions in the Intermediate Program are significantly higher than those of the Beginner Program. Although not mandatory, we strongly recommend that students enrolled in the Intermediate Program arrive at Evolve MMA with a solid base of strength and cardiovascular endurance.
The focus of the training sessions in the Intermediate Program is on building upon the fundamentals learned in the Beginner Program and on combining them into fluid striking combinations. Students will learn how to draw upon all of Muay Thai’s weapons and forge them into purposeful striking combinations. Basic Muay Thai theory including counterattacks, feints, set ups, and fight strategies will also be touched on in the Intermediate Program.
Training sessions will contain a healthy mix of technique work, pad work, heavy bag training, and high intensity conditioning. Students will sharpen their skills while building excellent strength and conditioning for Muay Thai training. Students will also have access to Muay Thai sparring sessions based on the Evolve Instructor Team’s discretion.
