Dennis completed his Muay Thai Novice Crash Course (Cert No 44) 👊🏼
Our Novice Crash Course is a highly structured program that teaches you 60 of the most essential Muay Thai techniques and concepts in 10 hour-long sessions. Your progress is tracked via a matrix that plans out your training and you receive a summary of what was covered and reviewed after each session.
There simply is no other program that will teach you fundamental Muay Thai skills faster and more comprehensively! Only at Raktan we can take you from 0 to 60 faster than a Bugatti 😆
Email or DM for the Crash Course Summaries. The Matrix itself is only disclosed to paying clients.

This month’s musing is about RESPECT.
Respect is the ONLY currency that matters in the end. Money, power, beauty, etc. all serve towards it, but don’t guarantee it. Your closest loved ones and your enemies both seek it because with this currency:
- You can generate and maintain yourself
- While it helps, you don’t need a title or inheritance (both can be easily squandered) to accumulate it — only your character and actions
- Can’t be confiscated by anyone
- Can’t be stolen or lost, except by you yourself
However, once you lose someone’s respect, it is very hard to regain it. People with weak character will never seek to redeem themselves, but will succumb to blaming others, making excuses and spreading rumors.

You can’t learn to swim without getting wet. You can’t learn to fight without getting hit.
At Raktan, even the trial student with zero experience will end up doing controlled sparring. You are warned from the moment you buzz the door 👊🏼 •••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••

If you change the angle of one strike in a combo, that makes it into a different combo. People often repeat their successful combos, but think about changing the angle and/or level of one of the strikes in it and you will become less predictible 👊🏼 ••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••
