Glow Kicks – 21st May 2021
Our loooooong awaited glow kick class will commence on 21st May 2021.
The intention was to start this in the winter when we had darkness earlier, however, we have had so much excitement and interest that we are pushing on with this as we think it’s imperative for people and their mental wellness to get those endorphin rushes from moving and having FUN.

We are gonna start with the class from 8 pm-9 pm but we may need to adjust the timings depending on the darkness. Make sure you are registered so you get all the up-to-date notifications:
 https://phoenixmuaythai.co.uk/glow-kick/

Bank holiday Monday – 31st May 2021
On bank holiday Monday, there will be a joint class from 7 pm to 8 pm. All ages (min. age 5 years old) and abilities are welcome to join in on this class.

Happy Birthday – 5th June 2021
20th anniversary of Phoenix Muay Thai.

Pad Work – 21st June 2021
We will be back to doing pad work, we will also be reintroducing member to member insurance, this hasn’t been necessary during covid due to us only utilising the bags for individual work. When we revert to pad work, this insurance will be mandatory again.
We don’t ask students to join until after 4 weeks of training. After this period students will be required to join.
Insurance: £30 per year.

Celebrations – 26th June 2021
We will be celebrating the 20th anniversary of Phoenix Muay Thai and being out of lockdown CALLING ALL STUDENTS PAST AND PRESENT
I don’t know what we are going to be doing, but trust me, it’s going to be epic.
I am thinking of clearing the walkway and turning it into a club, get DJs on lights the lot. Everyone bring their own beer – drink responsibly, but party like lunatics 🙂

Sparring – 4th July 2021
The return of the sparring class. all students must have their own appropriate equipment, including gum shields, shin pads, appropriate boxing gloves for their size and weight.
https://phoenixmuaythai.co.uk/shop/
 

New Bags
We have introduced some new branded Phoenix Muay Thai bags up in the training room on a clever pulley system, which I can’t wait for you to see. It means now we can now increase our classes to 18 people all with their own bag station with social distancing in place.

Saturday 12.15 Class
This class used to be the adult only class but we have turned it into an adults and family class. If you are training as a family, all children must be accompanied by and an adult (max 2 children per adult). If your child has trained in the children’s class that day, they can’t train in the adults class too. It is the parents/guardians responsibility to ensure that the children they are supervising are respectful in the training room and do not disturb the other students.


 

In loving memory
We are saddened to announce that during this last lockdown, we have lost 2 beloved Phoenix Phamily members. Our thoughts and prayers go out to the families and friends of Rachel West and Michelle Murphy. They will always hold their place in our Phamily.
Rest in peace ladies

1:1 Online Zoom Sessions

PhoenixMuayThaiFavi

Hi All,

As most of you know I am a people person and I love connecting with people, so with that in mind, I am going to do some quick 15 minute personal lessons online over zoom, the sessions are free but a donation to Phoenix Outreach CIC would be appreciated to enable us to keep running our fantastic community projects. 

How the lesson will be run:

1.Send me a short video of you doing a technique that you are struggling with the day before your lesson (not the night before).

2. I’ll send you a Zoom link (make sure you have zoom set up and you’re ready to be online at your session time).

3.Be in uniform (if you have it) and be on time. 
(If you are late, I won’t wait)

4.Warm-up yourself before the session with 3 minutes of skipping then 10x press-ups, 10x sit-ups, 10x squats, and stretch your limbs etc. (If you don’t warm up beforehand you risk injury to yourself that may impact on further training).

5. A 15 minute 1:1 session via Zoom with me.

6. Following the session stretch off your limbs again, e.g., forward splits, side splits etc.

If this is something that you would like to do, please get in click the ‘BOOK ME IN’ button below and I will get you booked in.

Here is the Crowdfunding page link to make a donation to Phoenix Outreach CIC:

Stay safe,

Jaiven Get His Uniform

­

Jaiven was presented with their uniform in the Wednesday class.

Parents purchased their uniform as they have watched their progression and recognised their commitment to Phoenix Muay Thai over the past 4-8 weeks.

Kru presented the children with their uniform and explained the importance of the uniform and how it represents our club and how they should act respectfully at all times, especially when they are wearing the club uniform.

Welcome to the Phoenix Phamily.

The classes are more based around having fun, de-stressing and getting a sweat on, than learning a martial art.

Refunds

We know that some of you are still awaiting a refund. We were under the impression that WIX would automatically refund the payment back to the account it was taken from and we know that this has happened in some instances. If you believe you are still due a refund and it has been more than 3 weeks, please follow these steps:
1. check you cancelled 24 hours before the class you booked
2. check the account you paid with for the 3 weeks after the cancellation date to ensure you haven’t had an automatic refund
3. if no refund, bring your cancellation confirmation e-mails with you to the gym and leave them with reception
4. we will check the cancellations and refund where applicable

Please bear with us to get this sorted, we will work through it systematically and refund you ASAP

What Is Glow Kick?

Thai Boxing classes taught in a darkened room with disco lights, glow sticks, smoke machines and lasers set to a soundtrack of old rave, the ’90s, garage, trance, Ibiza classics and new club hits. A fusion of dance, toning and combat moves with high/low impact options.

What are the benefits of Glow Kick?

You get to workout to your favourite tracks without a hangover the next day.
Working out in the dark with disco lights and lasers means you can really let go.
Get a workout with your friends or partner like you are clubbing it.
You’ll burn around 1200 calories in an hour.
You’ll tone your muscles.
You’ll de-stress hitting something and enjoy an endorphin buzz.

What should I wear/bring?

The is no set uniform, Neon is optional but please make an effort to wear it lol!
If not, Sportswear/fitness clothing is fine. Glow Sticks will be provided but feel free to bring and glow-in-the-dark gear with you.

Covid-19 – Tier 3 Update

Dear Members,

I hope you and your family are safe and well.

 

On behalf of Phoenix Muay Thai Ltd, we would like to thank you for your continued patience and cooperation to date around various arrangements that have been different for us all, as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic.

 

It has now been confirmed that Greater Manchester has been upgraded to Tier 3, ‘VERY HIGH’ COVID-19 alert level. As our operations and protocols have always been informed by Government guidelines, we are continually working to ensure that we are doing all we can, to provide the safest possible environment for all at Phoenix Muay Thai Ltd.

For now, our existing guidance and protocols remain unchanged.

 

We would like to please ask for your continued support as we work hard to ensure that we are providing the safest possible environment for all members, staff and families. During times when infection rates are high, then we believe it is vital that we do all that we can to decrease any chance of infection.

 

In order to minimise the risk posed by COVID-19, then one major adjustment that we continue to ask for your cooperation on, is that we cannot currently allow parents/guardians on site without masks and you may be asked to leave the reception area due to limited space.

 

Whilst this is very different to how we would typically operate, whilst we would never choose to enforce this within “normal” times, and whilst we understand that this is not an ideal arrangement for yourselves and/or the members, we have imposed this arrangement and will continue to do so – in order to prioritise the minimisation of risk to all posed by COVID-19. We please ask for you to respect this arrangement with everybody’s safety at the forefront, including the need to follow all UK Government guidelines in and around the gym entrance/exit and car park areas when entering/leaving the gym. Any breach of the UK Government Guidelines and Phoenix Muay Thai Ltd Operational Policy on site could jeopardise the continuation of training and classes which will in-turn jeopardise the gyms future and my livelihood. We encourage you to remain familiar with any updates to UK Government guidelines, including “Hands, Face and Space”. The following point is particularly important when you are collecting and dropping off your child at Phoenix Muay Thai:

 

Stay 2 metres apart from people you do not live with, or 1 metre with extra precautions in place (such as wearing a face covering). 

 

Thank you in advance for your support and let us know if we can help to answer any questions or provide any further information in order to keep everybody as safe as possible.

 

Kind Regards

 

Stay Safe

 

Kru Rick Lewis.
