Team Hardcore ThaiBoxing

Grand Master Phillip Lam is *the* pioneer of Muay Thai in NZ. He founded Leegar in 1975, taught Kung Fu, and bought Thai coaches here, starting the sport here. His fighters opened their own gyms, and their students in turn opened their own, and our gym is part of this proud lineage.

He is celebrating his 80th birthday and retiring from 50 years of promoting on Sept 6th.

To mark this momentous occasion CITY LEE GAR have designed this awesome collaborative T shirt, and pre orders are available now, until Sunday.
All profit goes to Sifu Lam.

Don’t train mindlessly, don’t think you’re too cool for fundamentals, don’t stop refining your technique.

A big shout out to our man Nick for being such a positive, encouraging and helpful member of the team.

Nick’s been training with us for three years, and is one of those guys in the gym who is always super helpful, offering to turn up to training to hold pads for guys with fights coming up, and always with something uplifting to say.

Fighters often get the most attention online but all gyms are full of kind and helpful people like Nick who hold them together, and are invaluable. Thanks Nick!

Our normal 5pm class with Duang Hongin is on this Matariki Friday! Enjoy your day off, come get some endorphins with an authentic Muay Thai work out and enjoy the rest of the weekend.

Don’t let the colder weather put you off class, chuck a jacket on and come work on your clinch.
Ask nicely and we can even turn the AC on.

Kyrie with a fight announcement coming soon and great to have our young gun Jason Gill straight back to it after a weeks rest following a great fight two weeks ago.

Don’t forget as well as our afternoon and evening schedule we have morning classes Monday and Wednesday at 6:30am, for the early risers.

No morning class tomorrow for those who planned on attending. Afternoon sessions with coach Richie Hardcore are on his scheduled.

Normal morning sessions with Duang Hongin resume Wednesday as usual.

We look forwards to seeing you in the gym this week.
