My Journey to Thailand began long before I was there. I was there in my dreams. I had set myself a goal sometime last year and that was to go to Tiger Muay Thai & MMA Training Camp in Phuket Thailand for some serious training. I had 2 weeks away in the most amazing place Phuket, Thailand (which was definitely not long enough).
People thought I was crazy going on a holiday to train, however for me it was the best holiday EVER. Got to train with so many inspiring people, learned some new sports, trained Muay Thai with the locals, challenged myself in doing Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu which I will continue to do, ran up the Big Buddha on 2 occasions first week time was 42 minutes and second week 38 minutes. I was doing Cross-training classes everyday which challenged me mentally and physically and yes I did get to relax at the beautiful islands of Phi Phi & Kai Nok Island.
Having a holiday does not necessarily mean drinking alcohol, eating the wrong food and forgetting about your training. If you are serious about achieving certain goals and seeing results, consistency is the KEY no matter where in the world you travel to.
All the trainers at Tiger will push you beyond your limits and will train you with such passion regardless of your fitness level. All the staff at Tiger Muay Thai are welcoming & helpful and will treat you like your part of the family.
Thailand this is not good bye as I will definitely be back but this time will be for a much longer period.
