My husband and I started bringing our two kids to Family Muay Thai at AkaMiamiKicks six months ago, and it's been incredible for all of us. Our 8-year-old daughter was shy and hesitant at first, but watching her dad learn alongside her gave her so much confidence. Now we all look forward to training together every week. The instructors in West Kendall are amazing with mixed-age groups and make sure everyone progresses at their own pace. This has become our favorite family activity!

As a single mom, I was looking for something my teenage son and I could do together that would help us stay connected during these challenging years. Family Muay Thai at AkaMiamiKicks has been perfect. We're learning discipline and respect together, getting a great workout, and actually talking more because we have this shared experience. The West Kendall location is convenient, and the community here feels like extended family. I've also lost 15 pounds and feel stronger than I have in years!

I never thought my whole family would stick with a martial arts program, but AkaMiamiKicks proved me wrong. My wife, our 10-year-old son, and I have been training for almost a year now. The instructors adapt techniques for different skill levels and ages, so we're all challenged appropriately. My son's focus has improved dramatically at school, and honestly, this is the best stress relief I've found after work. Training together has given us something special to share.

I was skeptical about whether my 7-year-old and I could train together effectively, but the instructors at AkaMiamiKicks in West Kendall know exactly how to structure Family Muay Thai Classes so everyone benefits. My daughter has learned so much about perseverance and trying her best, and I love that I'm setting a positive example by training alongside her rather than just watching from the sidelines. We're both more confident and more connected because of this program. Highly recommend to any West Kendall family!

Our instructors at AkaMiamiKicks excel at providing modifications and variations so that each family member is appropriately challenged regardless of their current fitness level or athletic ability. Parents and children work at their own intensity while still training together.

Is Family Muay Thai safe for children?

We recommend starting with two to three classes per week to see consistent progress while allowing adequate recovery time. Many West Kendall families find this frequency fits well with their schedules and provides enough repetition to develop skills without causing burnout or overtraining.

What are the costs for Family Muay Thai Classes at AkaMiamiKicks?

Muay Thai, known as the "Art of Eight Limbs," teaches striking using fists, elbows, knees, and shins, providing a comprehensive stand-up fighting system.

Are there belt ranks or progression systems in Family Muay Thai?

While Muay Thai traditionally uses an armband system rather than belts, AkaMiamiKicks has implemented a structured progression program that allows families to track their development and earn recognition for their advancing skills. This gives both children and adults clear goals to work toward together.

What if my family has varying schedules and can't always attend together?

Our West Kendall membership options provide flexibility for families with busy schedules.
