TESTIMONIALS

Khun Khru,

To give up, admit defeat and surrender to hard drugs takes a strong person.
Thanks to you and everyone in class I'm clean and sober today, I believe in second chances for everyone.
I know I'm the one who has to do the work to get it, but you and all the guys gave me what I needed in my first few months.
It gave me the foundation I needed. I'm forever grateful.
I'm back at home living with my family rebuilding trust, restarting the steps, working a great job, and hoping to get in the ring soon!
My family is very happy with the changes I've made.  My family and friends are proud of me as I am also.
I couldn't have imagined when I walked through your doors that I would be gaining the potential I have ahead of me now.
I highly recommend this class to anyone who's serious about getting an edge physically.
I have been able to build muscle definition, gain pride back, become healthier than ever, create a sense of balance and overall flexibility.
This experience helps me both during my workouts as well as in life.
I'm constantly learning new techniques and am being challenged both mentally and physically.
Dude, I never would have guessed how much my life could have improved by learning what you all have taught me.
Words can't express, only actions.
Never the less...thank you.

Khun Khru,

I would like to start by saying that our son, like every teenage boy, has had some rough times after rough times. For a while it seemed to him that no matter how hard he tried at something it just didn't work or there was something missing. My son has dealt with having issues with studies in school and the pressures of peers in school, not in a bad way just life. It seemed that for a while he just hardly smiled. Not to the point of worry but to the point that you know he is un happy. In his mind trying was just getting harder. The motivation he once had just stopped. 

One day, he came to us and asked if we knew what Muay Thai Boxing was. My husband knew because he had been to many fights in Thailand during the Navy. I didn't know at all, first thing I thought as a mother was..."are you going to get hurt?"  He explained to us that he had played football in school, and also a skateboarder, and some other sports too but nothing clicked with him. He said can I try it? I think I would really like it. We looked into some different places around town and I just didn't get the reaction I was hoping for. I got a lot of "attitude" from some other schools over the phone and it just didn't sit well with me.

I left a message at Adams Muay Thai one day and didn't give it another thought. I was figuring it was just like all the rest. The next afternoon I received a phone call from a gentleman about my interest in Muay Thai for our son, I said yes??? Every question I had was answered with no hesitation or arrogance. I wasn't hurried and felt very pleased and as a mother comforted in the professionalism of this gentleman who had returned my call. (Samuel Adams)

I was told of the time of the next class and we took our son. Of course I was a little hesitant still being concerned that this was one of those places that taught no discipline in the art and just taught fight , fight , fight. I have seen children that start out wrong because they are taught the fundamentals of the fighting part but never the respect. I am going on and on here but it is worth the point. Our son took the free first class and LOVED it. We went ahead and signed up. I was so impressed by the manner of the Khun Khru and the respect of the other students we signed him up for 3 days a week. I have to say that in just 2 weeks our son was a different person. He wasn't a bad child to begin with but he had this certain glow of respect for himself that was just different. He had found something that made him not only respect others (which he did anyway) he respected himself in a way he never had before. He has drive and I don't think we have yet to wipe off the smile on his face since.  Well, yes during Christmas he was sick and didn't go to class for 2 weeks and I am pretty sure he was frowning then.

Long story short...This art of Muay Thai not only teaches respect and honor. It also teaches discipline and protection of course. But, our son has something now that not just any school can teach. Khun Khru Adams teaches leadership, family values, and has given our son a total different outlook on everyday life. The way he may tackle something today in an everyday choice, is looked at differently from the way he would have looked at it a year ago. He has always had goals and I'm not saying we are bad parents, but this is something a young man or young woman learns within themselves not from us. Yes, we as parents, lay the groundwork but there is a point where they have to start learning on there own from others and life that is presented to them. It is just brought out of them differently by this art of Muay Thai Boxing and the Adams School that lets them do it for themselves without being pushed in the wrong way.

I love what Khun Khru Adams is doing and hopes that he does it for a very, very long time. And by the way....our son has brought every grade up since starting this training. He did it not for us, but for himself. We now have a new addition to our family, Adams Muay Thai Boxing School and all that that includes. Thank you Khun Khru Adams.

I hope this tells it in the way you deserve...

 Thank you

Mr. Adams,
 
I would like to thank you and your staff for hosting such a great, and well organized event. Our Team was met with great respect. All of the fighters, trainers and staff was very respectable to our art of Muay Thai. This was a true Muay Thai event!
My students are quick to respond to the fact that they wish to return on future events. With your help you have made them more confident in learning the art of 8 limbs, the history and respect that Muay Thai sure deserves.
So in closing, we again appreciate your general hospitality and hope to see you in future events.
 
Sincerely,
 
Team Prathet

"Except for several years of basketball and dance lessons when I was in elementary and middle school, I’ve never really been an athletic person or exercised regularly. My last semester in college I decided to change that; I exercised regularly and took an entry-level kickboxing class on campus. When I graduated and moved back to Tulsa, I looked up Adams Muay Thai online and went to observe a class. I really liked the “vibe” of Adams and could tell that it was a great learning environment. Coming back for my first class I felt very welcome and encouraged. I started going to three classes a week and then switched over to fighters’ training (unlimited classes) when I decided to get in the ring as a member of the fight team. Khun Khru’s training, motivation, and dedication are the biggest reasons I was able to be prepared and confident enough to take on such a challenge. The main things I love about Muay Thai as a sport and as an art are the discipline and respect. Paying respects to each other, ourselves, the ring, and to the art are things that keep you focused on class and the ultimate point of taking part in Muay Thai. Today I have confidence in myself physically like I never have before and also confidence in myself mentally to know that when I focus on something and work hard, I will achieve it. Muay Thai has given me great new friends, a healthy and toned body, a place to belong, a sport to challenge me, and an art to appreciate. I will never be able to show enough gratitude for what I have been blessed with from Adams Muay Thai."

 I’ve known Khun Khru Adams since about 1993, when we were both training under Sifu Terry Gibson. I truly appreciate that Mr. Adams carries the traditions of Muay Thai on within his students. I also appreciate the respect and discipline that is carried on from Mr. Gibson’s teachings. Mr. Adams has been a great teacher and friend, he and the entire Adams Muay Thai family are always willing to help and support one another.

My wife Julie also trains with me and training together has been a great experience. We can spend time together and be healthy. Julie has truly enjoyed the challenges of training and we’ve made many new friends. Adams Muay Thai maintains a great atmosphere of respect, discipline and the martial way.

I did Tae kwon do for a few years as a kid, and then I got caught up in being a teenager and quit. After High School I regretted not being involved in any physical activity. One of my friends trained at Adams Muay Thai and invited my boyfriend to try it out. He trained for a couple months and Khun Khru Adams talked to me about joining. I’ve never liked sports but have always been interested in Martial Arts. I joined because I wanted to lose weight and improve my self-esteem. I’ve been training almost a year and have fallen in love with Muay Thai. I love the intensity and aggression. I’ve lost weight and a lot of inches. I’ve gained more confidence in myself than ever in my life. When I have a bad day I go to class and work it out. I feel twenty times better afterwards. I joined the fight team recently and began training for my first fight. Training for a fight has really improved my confidence because now I’m focusing a lot more on my technique, speed and power. Muay Thai has changed my life for the better. All the students work together and it doesn’t matter how new or advanced they are. We’re a big family and I’m proud to be apart of the Adams Family.
