Master H.D. Tran · Longmont, ColoradoThe TMA Muay Thai System
Most seminars teach techniques. You train for a day, collect combinations and go home. Three months later, you are unsure how to teach what you learned or whether your students can retain it.
TMA was built differently. Every strike, combination and drill is grounded in biomechanics and progressive learning. Athletes understand it. Coaches can teach it. Schools can implement it.
“Raise Your Standard.”

Why it is different
The entire system was designed around one question: can a coach take this home and actually teach it?
Every technique is built on sound movement and body mechanics, making it easier to understand, retain and execute.
Foundational skills build deliberately into advanced applications so every athlete has a clear path forward.
You leave with a system you can teach, structure classes around and build a curriculum from.
More than 100 schools across North America have trained in the system since 2010.
What you walk away with
People come for Muay Thai. They leave with a stronger system and a higher standard for themselves.
Clean Muay Thai technique built on biomechanical principles.
A progressively organized system you can implement inside your school.
A clearer way to break down and teach technique at every level.
A rank-based credential reflecting real investment in the craft.
Relationships with serious coaches and school owners across North America.
A challenge to how you train, coach, lead and carry yourself.

Coach certification pathway
The credential is not a one-day badge. It is a rank-based pathway recognizing coaches who are serious about their craft.
Core strikes, combinations, footwork and the coaching method used to teach them.
Complex combinations, advanced drills and deeper curriculum application.
Earned through demonstrated skill, leadership and sustained commitment over time.

The Red Rocks experience
The 2027 certification includes a signature outdoor session at altitude in one of Colorado’s most striking landscapes. It is conditioning, technical work and a reminder of what you can do when the environment demands more.
