James, along with help from his wife Michelle make a very successful team who enjoy promoting Scottish Muay Thai at every opportunity. They hold yearly Muay Thai events, which are always well attended by the local public and other Muay Thai fighters/fans from throughout the country.
----------------------------------------------------------------
The camp runs two different types of classes. These are Muay Thai and Fighter classes.
Muay Thai classes are aimed at every level of student. Classes focus on learning the techniques of Muay Thai, whilst raising your fitness levels!!
Classes start with skipping exercises then some stretching routines just to get all those muscles warmed up. The class then breaks into some shadow boxing then pad/bag drills, which all raise your cardiovascular fitness levels.
Sparring usually finishes of class time, this is where students practice the techniques taught in class but in a more "fight" like situation.
Every type of class ends with the same...press-ups, sit-ups and crunches, which all help tone and condition those body muscles. We then warm-down by jogging around the gym and then stretching the limbs.
Fighter classes are for the fighters of the gym and to anyone who wishes to raise their training level. Classes focus more on the building up of fitness and stamina levels along with conditioning the body.
The fun starts with a quick warm up then a 5 mile run or 20 minutes of skipping exercises. After that shadow boxing is used for to loosen up the body and to get those muscles pumping.
Then it differs, some classes are spent doing circuit training with weights, pad and bag drills then maybe some sparring afterwards. But some classes are spent entirely doing sparring after the warm ups.
If all that wasn't fun enough for you, don't forget there are still the press-ups, crunches and sit-ups to follow :-)

Golden Belt Junior Championships |
by
Nessy
A big well done to all the Junior fighters who took part in the Golden Belt Junior Championships in Liverpool on Saturday. Ben "Tom Tom" Graham won the Golden Belt in his respective category, Light Midgeweight I think ;-P
Also Hayley Thomson won the Golden Belt in her respective weight category. Although Aaron Sammett lost his bout, he still deserves a massive amount of credit for getting involved in his first competative fight.
All three fighters have done the gym very proud, congratulations :-)
Photos with the belts will be posted ASAP
