![]() ![]() ![]() | Hi, The art of Muay Thai (AKA Thai Boxing) is a not only a competitive sport known worldwide, but a great workout for anyone looking to enhance their fitness level and learn effective standup self defense techniques. Muay Thai is a form of kickboxing that involves boxing combinations, knees, kicks, and elbows. Team Lloyd Irvin follows a Ranking System similar to the Muay Thai Institute of Thailand’s Grading Structure of 6 Grade Levels. There are 6 Major Components that their Instructors use for assessment, to graduate a dedicated student from one Rank to the next. The 6 Components in no specific-order are: #1: Attitude #2: Team-Work (Cooperation) #3: Performance (Consistently working HARD! High Intensity/Effort at every class attended!) #4: Techniques & Related Skills (i.e Knowledge of Curriculum) #5: Conditioning and Improved Fitness Levels #6: Attendance & Commitment (Specific Time Requirements) Their Level 1 Muay Thai Kickboxing Class will develop offensive and defensive techniques which will prepare the practitioner the "street." This class will increase the student’s level of fitness with Boxing & Muay Thai techniques, along with partner drills involving Focus Mitts and Kicking Pads. How the Program Works The student begins with a Rank of “Level 1”. Every student is given an attendance card, where their attendance is monitored and marked down for the amount of classes the student has attended. In order for the Level 1 student to be assessed for a “Progress Check” at Level 1, a student must have at least a minimum of 25 classes. To be given eligibility to take the Level 1 to Level 2 test for rank advancement, a student must have at least a minimum of 45 classes. Rank/Grade System Level 1: Grey Level 2: Green Level 3: Gold Level 4: Blue Level 5: Brown Level 6: Black Boxing Team Lloyd Irvin also offers traditional boxing classes to complement the Muay Thai training curriculum as well as their MMA program. All instructors have either trained and/or competed in western style boxing. A great deal of the techniques used in the Muay Thai curriculum involves the use of hands, foot and body movement. www.lloydirvin.com |

| Registered User | in your combination set, you can look at a leading round house like a jab in your combination set up and your reverse round house as a cross. A lot of instructors teach combinations in that fashion. I teach that as well as a more flowing combination like a jab, cross fallowed up with a reverse round house. One combination that I do on a Muay Thai bag to help with gain speed on the reverse round house is called a change up. What i'd do is execute a reverse round house to the thigh area, bring the foot back, then do a reverse roun dhouse to the head, step that foot down in front of you, changing your stance, then execute a reverse round house to the thigh, bring the foot back, then a reverse roun dhouse to the head, bring the foot down, changing your stance. Usually doing that in a 2 or 3 minute drill.

![]() | A successful street fighter will usually rely less on submission and more on control and damage. Therefore, a competent stand up game utilizing either kick boxing or Thai boxing (or both preferably) is necessary. Also, in a street fight you will need to be able to take your opponent to the ground as well as defend a take down. Therefore, knowledge and training in wrestling or judo is advised. Once these basics have been accomplished, I would work on choking submissions (rear naked and guillotine) as they are the most effective in real life scenarios.
