About the event

Weekly Muay Thai Self-Defence classes focused on building confidence, communication, and empowerment in a supportive, judgement-free space. Karina’s Muay Thai classes focus on building confidence, communication,
and empowerment in a supportive, judgement-free space. Students are
encouraged to train at their own pace while building physical strength,
fitness, and practical skills.

Through interactive drills, partner work, and teamwork, students develop
coordination, resilience, and confidence—whether their goal is fitness,
self-defence, or training to compete in the long term.

These sessions are funded by the London Marathon Foundation.

<strong><strong>Friday 18 September and Friday 25 September sessions
will be going ahead as planned. </strong></strong>We apologise for the
confusion caused - we cancelled these dates in error. They are available
to rebook on this page.

**About the facilitator**

Born in Hong Kong, Karina began her martial arts journey at 4 years old.
With over 18 years of training and competition across multiple
countries, she brings a versatile background in Muay Thai, Taekwondo,
K1, and Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu. Her adaptable style blends technical skill,
fitness, and fun.

Karina’s classes are a safe, welcoming space with no judgement – only
encouragement. Every student is supported to train at their own pace,
with coaching tailored to personal goals, whether that’s improving
fitness, building confidence, learning self-defence, or developing
skills for competitions.
