Why train at
Sityodtong in Thailand?
Sityodtong
Sityodtong is the name of the training camp we use. Bob Jones first went
to this camp over 23 years ago and started training under one of
Thailand’s most famous fighters and trainers Kru Yodtong Senanan. The
camp is fairly basic by western standards but high quality for the
Thai’s. Kru Senanan was the first trainer to recieve a Doctorate
from the Univerity of Thailand for his understanding, work, promotion
and dedication to the national sport of Muay Thai and it's traditional
art of Muang Boran.
As many as 50 children live and train at the camp. They train 2 hours in
the morning and 3 hours in the afternoon. They also go to school during
the day. There are also many teenage and adults fighters as well as
current Champions training. Sityodtong also have some of Thailand’s best
trainers to work with us. The main training area has no walls (good for
cross draft in the heat) and houses three full size rings, an area for
bag work with around 10 hanging bags as well as another area for shadow
work, tyre work, skipping etc. The second training area has an elevated
ring more bags and some weights.



Pattaya
Pattaya is a
beach side resort around 2 hours from the main airport and about 2 and a
half to 3 hours from the centre of Bangkok. It is the weekend play area
for wealthy Bangkok residence and a favourite holiday spot for Eastern
Europeans. It is also one of the best spots to train Muay Thai.



Pattaya used
to be the main port for sailors from the US, Australia and other allied
countries. This led to it developing somewhat of a seady reputation.
However it has been more than a decade since the Navy has used Pattaya
as a main port and it has now changed into a cosmopolitan centre – sure
there are still some dodgy areas but this helps give it an edge. A tough
area for a tough sport.
Shopping,
sightseeing, beaches, temples, bars, training centres and fight venues
are in abundance in this city. The district covers 22 sq km but the
action is all with-in a 4km radius, a population of 120,000 makes this
place exciting and vibrant.
