TRAINING MORE DOES NOT AUTOMATICALLY MEAN YOU'RE DEVELOPING BETTER.

You can train several times a week, learn countless techniques and spar constantly, and still be unsure:

What do I actually need to improve?
Is what I'm doing actually improving it?

Sparring

Most courses give you techniques and combinations. But without a clear path, it’s easy to jump from technique to technique without knowing what to develop, how it connects, or how to apply it under pressure.

Muay Thai Academy gives your development a system.
THE CURRICULUM

Nine phases.
Each one built on the last.

The value is the order. Each phase gives the next something to stand on, from your stance and guard to live competition.

Fundamentals
Fundamental striking, stance, movement and defensive skills.
Stance Movement Striking Defence
Learning a skill isn't the same as using it.

Most fighters learn a technique, then struggle to make it work in sparring. Each lesson builds on the last, so the skill ends up showing in live rounds.

EXAMPLE SYSTEM: PHASE ONE → TEEP

Every skill is taken from knowing what it is to using it when somebody is trying to stop you.

TESTIMONIALS
“Max is extremely knowledgeable in both coaching and combat sports. He is very methodical and systematic in his approach to training, creating an efficient environment that allows you to continually progress.”
H. Cyprus
3 years training
“It’s not one-size-fits-all with Max. He’s tailored my training from the ground up, helping me develop a fight style that suits me, my strengths and my ambitions. My progress in striking since working with Max has been insane, and I’m looking forward to seeing how much further I can take it.”
K. Hemming-Marsh
2 months training
“Really enjoyable sessions, especially as a beginner. Max takes the time to make sure I’m doing things correctly, and his guidance has helped me pick things up quickly despite having no previous experience. He breaks down techniques in a way that’s easy to understand, allowing me to learn at my own pace and gradually build my skillset as I gain more experience.”

Questions

The curriculum starts at the foundations, so complete beginners can start from the first lesson. Experienced fighters use the same structure to find and close the gaps in their game.
Yes. Phase 1 builds the stance, movement and defence the later phases rely on. Experienced members usually move through it faster and use the Skills Tracker to record what they can already do.
No. The Academy is designed to sit alongside your gym. It gives your training structure and direction; your coach and training partners give you feedback and live resistance.
You start with a Development Audit, then rate skills in the Skills Tracker as you work through the curriculum. As your Fighter Profile fills in, you set a Primary and Secondary Focus for your training.
Yes. The Fighter Development app is part of the membership.
That is how it is intended to be used. Take your Current Focus into classes, pad rounds and sparring, then update your profile afterwards.
Membership is billed through Skool. You can cancel at any time from your Skool account.
