The Arena’s San Diego Muay Thai program is the most complete in San Diego. We offer 25 weekly Muay Thai classes, with 3 different styles of Muay Thai taught at The Arena. We offer different styles so we can provide our students with a variety of choices, ranging from extremely traditional Muay Thai to modernized Muay Thai geared towards MMA.
The first style is Deth Ko Sin Muay Thai, taught by Boungnaphonh Makthepharaks, better known as Kru Mark. It is his family’s system of Muay Thai passed on from father to son for 5 generations. Kru Mark is now the head instructor of this sytem.
The second system is also taught by Kru Mark and is called Muay Boran. It is a very traditional Thai combat system, drawn from ancient Thai hand-to-hand techniques.
The third style of Muay Thai / Kickboxing we teach is much more modern, and oriented specifically towards MMA (Mixed Martial Arts). In this system, we concentrate on techniques that work for MMA and minimize the risks when facing opponents like wrestlers, boxers, etc.
Besides our Muay Thai classes, we also offer 70 other weekly Mixed Martial Arts / Conditioning classes, all available with one membership for $75 monthly. Please fill out our Free Training Pass form on this page to come in and try out The Arena’s Muay Thai classes, as well as any of our other classes, for free.
Note: Muay Thai (known as the art of 8 limbs) is a devastating fighting system allowing the use of eights points of contact, including hands, feet, elbows and knees. Like all the martial arts we teach, Muay Thai has ancient roots (see Muay Thai for more info).
