Two young warriors in the making! 🥊
Today we worked on an important Muay Thai concept: not always standing directly in front of your opponent, but creating angles and finding better positions to attack and defend.
We drilled it on the pads first before taking it into sparring. Unfortunately, I didn’t manage to get any footage of the sparring this time right now they’re both full of enthusiasm and energy, which makes for some very lively rounds! 😅
One thing I love about these two is their eagerness to learn. They’re always excited to pick up new skills, and today they were determined to learn how to sweep each other. Needless to say, they found it absolutely hilarious when they ended up on the floor! The funniest part was watching them try to get back up again, looking like turtles stuck on their backs. 🐢😂
As they continue training, they’ll develop better timing, precision, control, and technique. But at this stage, the most important thing is that they’re enjoying the process.
Martial arts isn’t always easy. Not everyone likes getting hit, and not everyone enjoys the challenges that come with learning to fight. But when training is fun, learning becomes something you look forward to, and that’s where real progress happens.
The laughter, the effort, the willingness to try something new, and the determination to keep going after making mistakes are all part of the journey.
A huge well done to both Robert and Mason for giving it their absolute best today.
Keep showing up, keep learning, and keep having fun. 🔥
