WHAT CAN YOU LEARN AT GLORY
“Art of Eight Limbs” – Muay Thai is a striking martial art from Thailand that utilizes punches, kicks, elbows, and knees, making it one of the most versatile and effective stand-up fighting styles.
Clinching & Sweeps – Unlike traditional kickboxing, Muay Thai incorporates clinch fighting, where fighters control their opponents, land strikes, and execute sweeps or off-balancing techniques.
Cardio & Conditioning – Muay Thai training emphasizes endurance, strength, and toughness through rigorous conditioning, including pad work, heavy bag drills, and body conditioning exercises.
Self-Defense & Combat Sport – Muay Thai is highly effective for self-defense, practical street fighting, and professional competition, including MMA and traditional Muay Thai fights.
Cultural & Traditional Roots – Muay Thai has deep cultural significance in Thailand, with traditional rituals such as the Wai Kru Ram Muay (pre-fight dance) and respect for trainers and opponents

Frequently Asked Questions
Most frequent questions and answers about our Martial Arts Programs
Bullies are rooted in insecurity and fear. But our Brooklyn & Staten Island kids martial arts classes grow confidence, focus, and respect. And our group training builds positive social skills and confidence. So long story short: No! Your child won’t become a bully, and there are no bullies in our classes either!
That is up to you! If you need some ‘me time’ — go grab a coffee and relax. Your child is in great hands. If you’d like to stay and observe, you’re welcome to do that as well, and make friends with the other parents. We’ve got a great community here in our Brooklyn & Staten Island martial arts school and can’t wait for you to become part of it.
No way! Some folks come to us who have never exercised in their lives. Others have athlete-levels of fitness. That’s the beauty of martial arts — everyone starts at the same place. And although you’re in a group setting, you’re on your own personal journey. Some people advance faster than others. Every pace is okay. There’s no ego here in our Brooklyn & Staten Island kids and adult martial arts classes. Just support and positivity.
There is no real answer for this! And we’d urge you to be cautious of any school that gives you one. The truth is, the path to black belt is a deeply personal and individual journey. Some folks have natural talent and practice hard every day. Other people need to spend more time building coordination and fitness.
It’s not about getting to black belt. It’s about you becoming a better version of yourself along the way. As you train, overcome obstacles, make friends, find support — you’ll become a stronger you, inside and out.
