Muay Thai Courses at Horizon Thai Boxing Camp
Muay Thai Instruction
If you wish to learn Muay Thai boxing you are very welcome to come and train with us in Thailand at any time. Horizon Thai Boxing Camp is open throughout the year. We train twice daily 8am - 10am and 4pm - 6pm, with no training Saturdays. All levels of boxer are welcome, including complete beginners. You can begin your training on any day and may sign up for Muay Thai courses as long or as short as you wish.
As an introduction to this spectacular martial art, some students like to try it for just one afternoon. If you are planning to compete, wish to learn the sport comprehensively, or have aspirations to teach we recommend a one to three month stay. It is not possible to provide a precise course outline for specified time periods, as each student will progress at different rates, and have a different set of goals and expectations. Our instructors will easily be able to assess your current level and abilities during your first training session and will introduce new techniques as you are ready. Most of our students are surprised by how much they are taught, and are able to achieve, in quite a short space of time.
It is not neccessary for you to be very fit in order to begin training with us. Though the better shape you are in on arrival, the easier you will find your training sessions. Our training schedule is suitable for highly conditioned boxers, but each student's regime will be adjusted according to their individual fitness level and requirements. You may stop and rest at any time. The best way to prepare yourself for the intensive training is to run every day. It is not essential to pre-book Muay Thai courses; it is normally possible to turn up at the camp and begin training. It is a good idea though to let us know when you expect to arrive.
We cannot confirm availabliltiy or accommodation unless we receive a 50% deposit per person in advance. There is no obligation to use our accommodation. You may prefer to stay at a nearby resort and come over to the gym every day. We offer packages including Muay Thai training, accommodation and meals. Click through to see our current prices. Classes are taught in English. But you will be encouraged to learn the proper Thai terms as much as possible. To get a head start take a look at our on-line dictionary of Muay Thai terms.

Muay Thai Tours
The Muay Thai gym is open for training year round. In addition, we organise a number of annual all-inclusive Muay Thai training holidays, including various trips and excursions, as well as Muay Thai training and accommodation at Horizon Thai Boxing Camp. These trips enable our visitors to experience much more of Muay Thai boxing and Thailand than could be managed on an unescorted trip of the same length. Everyone has a lot of fun, and we really appreciate this opportunity to demonstrate the very best of Thai hospitality.
Certification
We don't supply certificates of attendance for those joining our Muay Thai classes. These would be meaningless in our eyes. We do offer certificates of proficiency, but only to the few students our instructors consider to have reached a very high level of competency, and who have proved themselves in the Muay Thai ring. There are many aspects of training you must become profficient in, and many cultural elements you must absorb; it is not simply a matter of putting in hours in the gym, or competing in a certain number of fights. We cannot predict how long this will take. Our Muay Thai trainers will have to meet you, and train with you first. They can then make an assessment.
Instructor training
We can help you to become a competent Muay Thai instructor. If that is your aim, come to train with us at the camp. As your confidence improves you can begin assisting our trainers during training sessions. Our Muay Thai instructors will decide if they can accept you to enroll in an instructor program.
