If anyone knows anything about this man, and/or his Sitnarong camp please speak up. Any opinions? Or any information really.... at the moment i know nothign about him. Cheers

He's one of the biggies over in the UK. Came over in the 70s and established himself in the Bolton ad Manchester areas. Well thought of in Muay Thai circles.

I did recently see an acquaintance of mine have a slight problem though. One of Sken's students was a guy called Sandy Holt. Sandy now stands alone and is not in the Sken organisation.

My mate trains with Holt, and wanted to train with Sken also., But Sken gave it the old "him or me" approach, so the lad opted for Holt.

Yeah? Thats interesting.. thanks. I found mastersken.com or something similar, google got that with no problem at all. I was just wondering what other people here have heard about him.

Would make sense for him to be big in the UK, since i live in the UK and I've heard of him Thats reassuring... thanks for the reply

Seppuku,

Okay so some-one knows of some-one who doesn't think highly of Arjan Sken.
How stupid is it to listen to a 3rd party who doesn't even know this gold mine Arjarn we are so lucky to have in the UK. Go and see the man yourself, and you just may be suprised.
Any disagreement between Arjarn Sken and Sandy Holt is between them two. To counter that thought, Arjarn Sken has just Employed Carl "the cat" Thompson, who has trained and tought Muay Thai in the past and now after a successful boxing career (World Champion) is back teaching at Arjarn Sken's Academy. So what does that say ! Can't be all bad can he?
If you want to be the best train with the best.
Yours in muaythai

Sandy Holt will be commentating for Master Sken's show for television Channel 5 in Uk next weekend.Sandy would like to run his organisation and Master Sken gave him his blessing.There are no problem there.Sandy has been training with Master Sken for 25 years,their relationship are still very strong.If you ask Sandy,he will give you the same answer.
Thai Bri,I asked Master Sken about your freind.He was very welcome,if he will be training regularly but your freind could not.Since you also have been training with one of his Instructors,but never train with him personally.Please do try to train with him,you will find him very freindly,trust worthy and very highly skills.

Well said Sammeung. I hope Arjarn Sken has a good show on Sunday, and all runs smoothly. Can't believe how some people on the internet say Arjarn Sken's not a top Thai Boxer when it's so obvious he is.
All the best in MuayThai
