This video was from our first Instagram Live on January 21, 2025. It was impromptu, and the intent was more about getting us used to sparring in front of an audience. We also wanted to give non-LMA subscribers an insight into our training. When we started, none of us knew how to kickbox, let alone Thai-box. We all learned together through the LMA approach. Under a commercial gym's attendance tracking system, MY, who is 38, would have accumulated four months of classes. I, at 45, would have accumulated seven to eight months of classes. We started late; we both suffer from chronic pain, and this is what our training looks like now. Fun, relaxed, and spirited. Lately, we've been experimenting with one long round.
We plan to go live periodically, so if you follow us on Instagram, look for it.
