Structured Muay Thai classes for kids aged 4–13, focused on confidence, coordination, discipline, and safe Thai boxing fundamentals in a coach-led environment.
What Are Our Kids Muay Thai Classes?
Our Kids Muay Thai classes are structured Thai boxing training sessions created specifically for children. Training focuses on basic striking mechanics, balance, coordination, movement, listening skills, and controlled partner work.
Classes follow a progressive curriculum that helps children develop physical ability, confidence, and discipline while learning authentic Muay Thai fundamentals in a fun and supportive environment.
Safety, structure, and positive reinforcement are central to every session.
Kids Muay Thai Class Groups by Age
Muay Thai for Kids (Ages 4–8)
Classes for younger children focus on coordination, balance, movement patterns, and basic Muay Thai concepts using age-appropriate drills and games.
Training introduces fundamental punching and kicking movements, pad work, and simple combinations while developing body awareness, confidence, and discipline in an engaging and enjoyable setting.
Sessions are designed to keep children active, focused, and motivated while learning in a safe and positive environment.
Muay Thai for Kids (Ages 9–13)
Older kids train in more structured Muay Thai classes that introduce proper striking mechanics, footwork, pad work, basic combinations, and partner drills.
Training places greater emphasis on discipline, consistency, technique, and controlled intensity while maintaining a safe and supervised environment.
These classes prepare students both physically and mentally for a smooth transition into Adult Muay Thai training when appropriate.
Muay Thai Progression After Age 13
There are no separate Teen Muay Thai classes.
Students aged 13 years old and above train in Adult Muay Thai classes, where coaching structure and training intensity are adapted to age, experience, and physical development under instructor supervision.
Muay Thai & Kickboxing for Kids (Trained in Tandem)
Our Kids Muay Thai and Kickboxing classes are structured to complement each other, helping children develop coordination, balance, and basic striking skills in a safe and age-appropriate way.
Training focuses on fundamental movement, controlled techniques, and progressive learning rather than intensity, allowing kids to build strong stand-up foundations while progressing confidently at their own pace.
Kids Muay Thai Ranking & Progression
Structured Progression for Children
Kids Muay Thai training follows a structured progression system designed to reward consistency, technical understanding, discipline, and personal development.
Progress is based on instructor evaluation rather than competition performance, ensuring advancement remains age-appropriate and confidence-building.
Most martial arts use ranking systems to measure progression. Traditional Muay Thai does not always follow a formal ranking structure, but to provide clarity and motivation, we follow the Brazilian Muay Thai Krang ranking system.
At Monarchy MMA we follow the Brazilian official belt grading system
