Fundamentals
Stance, footwork, the eight strikes, defensive techniques. The class every Muay Thai member starts with.

Authentic Muay Thai in Miami. Fists, elbows, knees, kicks and the brutal clinch game that defines the sport. KO Zone runs a Muay Thai program built around real technique and real conditioning — not a kickboxing-aerobics class with Thai music.
Muay Thai is called the art of eight limbs because it uses fists, elbows, knees and shins as weapons. KO Zone's Muay Thai program teaches the full toolkit — the teep (push kick) for distance, the round kick for damage, the elbow for cuts in the clinch, the knee for the inside fight, the punches that set everything up.
Our format runs the way Muay Thai is run in serious gyms: warm-up shadowboxing rounds, technical drilling, partner pad work where coaches hold for you and call combinations, heavy bag conditioning rounds, and clinch work — the position that separates Muay Thai from kickboxing. Live sparring rounds for members who've built the technique and control to spar productively.
The conditioning is brutal in the best way. Muay Thai cardio is unique — repeated explosive output across rounds, with constant footwork and hands up. Members who started for the workout end up wanting to compete. That's the gym's reputation: real Muay Thai, taught right.

Muay Thai uses elbows and knees AND has a heavy clinch game (controlling the opponent's head and body to land knees and trips). Kickboxing typically restricts to punches and kicks with limited or no clinch. Muay Thai is the more complete striking art.
