About this Event

Karina’s Muay Thai classes focus on building confidence, communication, and empowerment in a supportive, judgement-free space.

Folks are encouraged to train at their own pace while building physical strength, fitness, and practical skills.

Through interactive drills, partner work, and teamwork, students develop coordination, resilience, and confidence—whether their goal is fitness, self-defence, or training to compete in the long term.

This class is a taster of the Karina facilitates at the London LGBTQ+ Community Centre.

The session is funded by the London Marathon Foundation.

About the facilitator

Born in Hong Kong, Karina began her martial arts journey at 4 years old. With over 18 years of training and competition across multiple countries, she brings a versatile background in Muay Thai, Taekwondo, K1, and Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu. Her adaptable style blends technical skill, fitness, and fun.

Karina’s classes are a safe, welcoming space with no judgement – only encouragement. Every student is supported to train at their own pace, with coaching tailored to personal goals, whether that’s improving fitness, building confidence, learning self-defence, or developing skills for competitions.
