About Yak Thai Boxing
Why "Yak"?
Yak or Yaksha are known in Thailand as guardian warriors who keep away evil spirits, protecting families and important buildings. They can be seen throughout Thailand at the gates of many Buddhist temples.
We chose the name "Yak" to showcase our aim of empowering young athletes to be the strongest possible version of themselves, both physically and mentally.
