Benefits

Muay Thai Boxing is definitely challenging. It works most of the human body's physiological systems. The musculoskeletal system becomes stronger through specialized resistance exercises and specific equipment drills. The cardio respiratory and vascular systems become more efficient through workouts that are more than 60% anaerobic. The central nervous system is trained to respond faster and more efficiently to punching combination drills.

Originally, the martial arts were created in order to preserve life through self defence.  Nowadays, people come from a variety of backgrounds, all with their own reasons for wanting to train.  Some want to learn how to defend themselves, some wish to improve fitness, some enjoy the competitive aspect of the tournaments, whilst others just want to have fun.  

Whatever the motivation for taking up a martial art,  Martial Art Academy of India (MAA India) is more than willing to cater for your preferences.  The martial arts are a vehicle for physical, mental, personal, and emotional development.    

Many friendships and several relationships have been formed through training and sweating together!  The social aspect is highly recommended as it encourages attendance and commitment.

Fat Loss: Muscle and Fitness magazine rates aerobic Muay Thai kickboxing as the number one fat burner with over 800 calories burned in one hour class! 800 Calories! Nothing else comes close.

Toning: Did you ever notice how boxers and kick boxers have very toned bodies? They look like they spend hours lifting weights, when the truth is that they don't lift any weights at all. That's the same look you get from Muay Thai kickboxing and Fitness Muay Thai kickboxing. You get tight buttocks, toned legs, a flat stomach and a strong upper body.

Stress Relief: Let's face it, this is a major benefit and one of the top reasons our clients can't get enough of Muay Thai kickboxing. Because of the mental strength the martial arts develop, students become so absorbed in a Muay Thai kickboxing class that their problems seem a million miles away! You will think clearer, sharper, and with more confidence than ever before!

Flexibility: A major benefit of increased flexibility is better blood circulation and a more relaxed overall lifestyle.

Self Confidence: We all know that when you look good you feel good. Imagine adding "And I know I can take care of myself" to the equation. There is no better feeling than knowing you're in shape and can defend yourself if you ever have to.
