It's been exactly 2 years since I first came to Thailand to train muay thai. 2 years ago I was a complete beginner, and getting a big culture shock also. I stayed and trained for 6 months then and learnt alot. I had one fight at Chewang stadium in Ko Samui, that was a big eye opener. You can feel so good in training but once you step in that ring the mind goes completely blank....
Now I am here back in Phuket to get my punch on again. Man this place has changed alot in the last couple of years, the once quiet street of tiger muay thai is now full of all sorts of little shops and bars.
I rolled through tiger muay thai and saw my first ever trainer, kru Phetjing. Straight away he had a big smile for me, it was really nice. I trained a couple of private lessons with Phetjing on the last couple of days and it felt so great. I just loved the feeling of wondering back to my room after training completly worn out and high on endorphins, getting back and jumping into a cold shower.... Bliss.
Straight away Phetjing is showing me some tricks and helping with my fight tactics. I remember alot of things he was trying to tell me two years ago that i just never understood, this time he has been telling the same thing and its just seems to click straight away.....
I have signed up to Phuket top team mma gym and I will be doing my first class there tomorrow, I'm gonna try and get the boxing class in the morning and the muay thai class in the evening. That will be 3.5 hours for the day.... Can't wait!
