  • Ty Starts his Muay Thai class

    img_0175For those that don’t know the history of this site, or of my Utah Judo site: although I have done wrestling and some Karate off and on throughout my life, and have been an MMA junkie forever, I really got back actively involved about two years ago when I started taking Judo classes with my don Ty, in order to get fit, and bond as father and son.  He has been a great friend, and in many ways an inspiration on this journey.

    Ty has been doing great at Judo and Jiu Jitsu, but he has also been wanting to start working more on hs striking game (which, as you can see from the picture, needs some work :) .  So, this week we got Ty started in a Muay Thai class.

    The first class was great for him.  I could really see him beam when the instructor was working one-on-one with him with the pads, and having him kick and punch them.  I will be working with Ty to get him to write up more about what he’s learning, and his thoughts on Muay Thai as he progresses.

    We’ll keep you posted, but for now I think he’s jsut excited to get to hit something :)
