Here are the following categories I will rate the camps with: Facilities Trainers Training Routine Administration/Office Accommodations Population/Student Body Website Intangibles Overall Tiger Muay Thai Facilities – A The facilities at Tiger are by far one of the strengths of Tiger Muay Thai.
The new area featured a nice mirrored wall, and like all the training areas, completely matted floors.
The camp also has dozens of bags to work on, as well as a weight training area.
Tiger does an excellent job in allowing for training areas for it’s 3 different levels of the Muay Thai program, as well as the separate MMA program, and a Yoga class.
Training Routine – A- Each morning starts out with a 30 minute optional technique class.
If anyone is considering training at Tiger, I suggest taking this class.
Trainers – B- It’s tough for me to rate this category this low, considering that I thought the training routine was great and I really liked some of the trainers.
Among my favorite trainers were Ajarn Mac, and Kru Nai and Kru Sornpitchai.
One trainer will correct your technique on a kick perhaps, and then later that day, or the next day, after you have practiced the technique one way, a different trainer will say you are doing it wrong, and show you a different way.
In private lessons, you get a lot of 1 on 1 time with a trainer, and you can really form up your technique.
Finally, the biggest reason that the trainers scored so low, was the trainer by the name of Robert Lek.
One bad trainer ruined my overall opinion of the trainers, or rather the score for this category.
If there had been a lesson during the session, as a trainer, he should have pointed it out.
95% of the trainers at Tiger are top notch and extremely professional.
Once again, most of the trainers at Tiger are exceptional, and overall you will have a really good experience with them, but I did want to point out this negative side, so that hopefully it will be addressed and will improve in the future, for others and myself There were some bright spots as far as the trainers go that I do want to mention.
You can let the trainer determine what to work on, or you can tell them specifically what you want to work on and they will help you.
Another advantage is you can literally walk outside and start training.
I am sure if I was staying at camp, I would have done more off hours training, such as sparring, bag work, etc.
Tiger has programs for everyone from the beginner to the person looking to train for a fight.
I wish Tiger the best on their continued success and look forward to training there again.
