to the contentClass Experience
This is a self paced class with NO LIVE MEETINGS. Learners will be able to press play and follow along whenever it works for their schedule! In this four week class, your learner will have access to TWO class videos each week (EIGHT total videos comprised of 20-25 minute lessons). Learners are REQUIRED to have some sort of a bag for this class. That could be a heavy bag hanging from the ceiling, or a freestanding bag on the ground. Gloves are not required, but highly encouraged. This is a fitness class, designed for middle school and high school teens and preteens to enjoy working out. Videos may be watched multiple times throughout the course. Students should be in good physical health and be cleared by their doctor for physical, cardio workouts.
Learning Goals
Students will be able to understand how to properly and safely use a wide variety of Muay Thai strikes on the bag, as well as how to put moves together so they can create their own workouts on the bag!

Parental Guidance
Students should be in good physical health and be cleared by their doctor for physical, cardio workouts. Students should have water nearby, a clear space to workout in around their bag, and comfortable clothing for movement. Boxing gloves are ideal for protecting hands, though not required. Shoes are acceptable but bare (sock less) feet are preferable.
Supply List
A bag (hanging or freestanding) is required. Should a student not have a bag and still feel like this is a class they want to take, they may absolutely shadowbox (i.e. do the moves in the air), but please know that I will not be discussing some of the differences (like the follow through on thai kicks on a bag vs. in the air). Students should also consider (though not required) a pair of boxing gloves.
External Resources
Learners will not need to use any apps or websites beyond the standard Outschool tools.
