  1. Hello! I trained at Sitsongpeenong BKK for 1 month! I really enjoyed it. Everyone was super friendly & the facility was very clean. My room was cleaned each afternoon, so when I came back after training my 2nd session of the day I had a clean room & clean sheets. The food was Okay. The only downfall was it was practically the same everyday... Fried egg, curry w/ veggies & white rice in the AM (breakfast) and Chicken or pork curry w veggies, white rice & watermelon for dinner :) Always the same.... The trainers seemed to give attention to the foreigners & depending on someone's skill level adjusted their intensity. I was fortunate to be allowed to spar & clinch the thai boys. Seems they were pretty picky with who they let spar their young thai boys. I enjoyed the scheduled training as Emma stated above. I've some gyms just let you hit a bag. They have a structure to their schedule so I knew what to expect on which day. Overall I really enjoyed my stay there & I am going back in a few months for my honeymoon. There is a hotel/apartments nearby in walking distance. I will be looking into this place: https://www.google.com/maps/place/Pattara+Apartment/@13.6829375,100.6700045,17.17z/data=!4m5!3m4!1s0x0:0x2d4c7119ace7fef!8m2!3d13.6821029!4d100.6708138 I hope this helps....

  2. Hi Michelle! I'm one of the co-owners of 8 Limbs Academy where the Tiffany Van Soest Seminar is being hosted. Everything Sylvie said is spot on. The seminar is 3 hours long. Typically there is a meet & greet, a warm up & then Tiffancy will instruct us in a class setting. We will be paired up with a partner (no worries if you're alone...many people will be looking for a partner) & we will practice the technique she teaches. Typically the person giving the seminar will do very basic techniques to gauge & see where everyone is skill level. Then they will start showing some cool tricks/techniques. Tiffany is known for head footwork (Dutch) & explosiveness. I'm imagining it will be a lot of head movement & footwork drills but I'm not sure. BUT I do know it will be fun, interactive & you'll learn a lot. After the seminar they typically do a Q & A where you can ask Tiffany questions. I've also been to seminars where the fighter will spar a few people but given she will had just fought 2 days beforehand...I doubt that will happen. Feel free to email me if you have any more questions! - Kate
