I can understand how some people may be suspicious so may I explain a little more about the courses.
There is a big difference between being able to do something yourself and being able to teach it to others.
The courses are intended for those already familiar with Muaythai but want a qualification that will allow them to assist in a gym helping an instructor with managing a group of people or to start to teach the basics to children or adult beginners.
The children's course allows you to teach non-contact Muaythai to children in a fun way and with awards to show progression and learn more about Muaythai (a CRB check, now DBS check, is required if you wish to take this course). This is intended to get the interest of the children and maybe encourage them to go further. There is also access given to a post-course help centre and workshops to support anyone if they have any questions or need further help.
The Level 1 adults course allows you to teach the raw beginners the basics but not any sparring which would need to be done in the presence of a more qualified instructor and in presence of a first aider or paramedic.
In both cases there is a complete syllabus which has been checked and approved by IFMA and UKMTF.
The locations for courses are where gym owners have allowed their premises to be used for the course to be taught, that is all. The premises and some equipment are being used, the courses are being taught by myself not the staff at any of the premises.
Thank you.
