Charlotte, NC, US

As a Kru in Muay Thai, I have the privilege of teaching and preserving the authentic striking traditions passed down through the respected teachings of Ajarn Master King and Ajarn Dr. King. Under their guidance and lineage, the focus has always been on developing not only technical skill, but also discipline, respect, and personal growth through martial arts.My role involves instructing students in the fundamentals and advanced techniques of Muay Thai, including striking mechanics, conditioning, defensive strategy, and practical application. Training is structured to support students of all experience levels, from beginners learning their first techniques to experienced practitioners looking to refine their skills.Beyond the physical aspects of training, I emphasize the values that define traditional martial arts instruction—respect for others, humility, perseverance, and continuous improvement. The goal is to help each student build confidence, resilience, and discipline that extend beyond the gym and into everyday life.Through this role, I contribute to continuing the legacy and training philosophy established by the Kings, helping ensure that authentic Muay Thai instruction remains accessible to those seeking both personal development and high-level martial arts training.
