Hello Everyone!
Welcome to our new site. Been about five years since the the site has been remodeled and well, here we are. I’m sure many of you are aware of the different changes we have undergone the last couple of months ; maybe it was time our virtual realm got a face lift just as much as our physical realm has changed. 🙂
As always, I’m very grateful the team has stuck together and helped move the school along at a rapid pace and am always so humbled by everyones continued support. Many thanks and much love.
Schedule changes and new classes
Advance Muay Thai Classes
So we got the new advance sparring class going along Wednesday nights at 7 that have been tremendous. This new class allows the members to explore the idea of competing, gaining new perspective and applications to the techniques taught in class, as well as to help those that are wanting to compete or that are going to compete. This also gives me an opportunity to give other members feedback on their progress or how to improve.
Coach Miguel has now taken over the beginners muay thai class at 7pm and has been doing a wonderful job coaching and leading the class. Thank you coach!
New Boxing Classes
On that note, we also have a new boxing/sparring class saturday mornings at 10 am that coach miguel is leading. This gives you a chance to mix it up with his boxing class members in a hands only boxing style sparring session.
And so with that, as of september we bid adieu to tuesdays and thursdays 7 am boxing classes. Please speak to coach miguel with any questions in regards to any of the boxing classes.
Kids Classes
We have now started kids martial arts classes at TBI in mar vista taught by myself (coach vik) and by coach miguel. There are myriad of reasons as to why martial arts are beneficial for kids. Discipline, self-control, conflict resolution, goal setting and achieving, self confidence and respect and above all else a fun outlet for energy and a great way for child to stay in shape.
The Class schedule as follows:
Monday Wednesday, and Friday at 5:00 pm till 6:00 pm
Ages 5-12 years old. $99/month. Family discounts available.
1st week is free!
Refer a kid (or adult) and receive $25 credit towards your next months membership.
Dr. Jason Park Seminar
We are two days away from our special saturday class/seminar by Dr. Jason Park.
I’ve followed Jason and his career near close to a decade and thru out the time have seen him come up from amateur fighter to i think he fought pro in the US? i know he spent some time training in thailand so maybe he had a few fights there too? Anyways, he is now a striking coach to pro muay thai fighters and mma fighters and most recently was recruited by former UFC middleweight champion Anderson Silva to be his striking coach. On top of being a rad dude and awesome coach, Jason Park is a Board-certified Sports Clinical Specialist, Sports performance, Strength and Conditioning For fighters and basketball players, ACL rehab specialist PT, DPT, SCS and a protege of Kru Bryan Popejoy of Hermosa Beach Boxing Works Fame. Not convinced? psh, did i mention this will be free to ALL TBI MEMBERS? $50 buckaroos to non-rbi members.
That’s this saturday, August 26th from 11 am-12 pm.
Hope to see ya there!
Youtube channel/Online school
Been working on a new project now for the last month. Every week I consolidate all the techniques (most at least) i have taught in class during that week into a week in review tutorial as a sort of recap. This is a great way for all members to review any material they have questions about or perhaps catch up on if they have missed a few days. You can find all the videos on our youtube channel as well as a collection of any other related material to TBI. Check it out:
