FITCHBURG, Wis. — Forward Thai Boxing cut the ribbon Wednesday on a brand new martial arts gym in Fitchburg.
The goal of the gym is to provide a fun, viable environment for students to practice Muay Thai and Krav Maga.
“Muay Thai is a Thai style of kickboxing known as the art of 8 limbs,” owner and co-founder Abbe Braun said. “Whereas Krav Maga is an Israeli born martial art that teaches students real life self-defense strategies.”
Braun says the gym provides a chance to learn something new while getting a good workout. The space also features a ring in the middle for students to practice for competitions.
“You build a community, you meet friends when you join a material art gym,” Braun said. “It’s not just going and running on a treadmill in some 4 walls and no one knows your name.”
