Muay Thai for Companies
Looking to enhance team bonding, productivity, inclusion, and wellness in the workplace?
Our unique team-building activities are designed to positively transform workplace well-being and the bottom line.
Muay Thai improves employee physical and mental health, creating a tighter community, higher productivity levels and greater revenue for businesses.
Problems in the workplace
The effect of poor mental health on the bottom line
c£43.5bn is lost to UK businesses annually due to employee absenteeism, presenteeism (present at work but unproductive), and labour turnover caused by people looking for jobs elsewhere that can better support their well-being.
Solutions for the workplace
For every £1 spent on supporting employees’ mental health, employers receive an average of £4.70 returns from increased productivity.
Our wellness initiatives are specifically designed to enhance employee mental well-being in the most inclusive, fun, and supportive way.
Health issues negatively affect employee productivity in the workplace
43% of people experience sedentary-related physical health problems at work which they cite as detrimental to their productivity (Champion Health).
UK Government guidelines of 150 minutes of moderate-intensity physical activity per week would reduce workplace fatigue, absenteeism, and presenteeism, which could generate £6.6bn growth for UK businesses.
Our Muay Thai Wellness workshops enhance energy levels, focus, and productivity, and improve physical health outcomes!
Many professionals don’t feel supported or part of their team at work
36% of people don’t feel part of their team at work. Many feel isolated, excluded, and a lack of belonging. This directly increases labour turnover and negatively impacts team dynamics, communication, and the bottom line.

“Jed and Zac delivered an excellent Muay Thai Wellness session for our team, as part of CBRE Investment Management’s Mental Health & Wellbeing initiatives. The class was a fun, engaging and unique experience, which connected colleagues from different service lines and inspired camaraderie. This was the first combat sports class for many colleagues, so it was brilliant that Jed and Zac were able to clearly explain the fundamentals of Muay Thai and teach us some essential combinations for beginners. We left the session energised, with extremely positive feedback from the team. Thank you Jed and Zac.”
“What a start to the morning!! Thanks Jed and Zac for the session. I speak on behalf of the team who absolutely loved it”
“Thrilled to share our team’s invigorating experience at the Muay Thai wellness workshop! A powerful blend of teamwork, resilience, and wellness that brought us closer and recharged our spirits. Ready to take on new challenges with renewed energy and unity! Thank you to Jed Brecher and his team for delivering this amazing experience at Novotel London Wembley!”
What’s different about what we do?
Research shows that exercise reduces anxiety, stress, and lowers the risk of depression.
Physical activity also releases endorphins and other neurochemicals that boost mood and promote relaxation.
What’s unique about our Muay Thai workshops is the emphasis on teamwork and communication. This encourages the neurochemical response that occurs during face-to-face interactions, further boosting mental health and a sense of belonging.
The playful and collaborative nature of our sessions, where colleagues hold pads for each other, rotating every round, sets our programme apart. We utilise the benefits of an empowering physical activity like Thai Boxing and maximise social interaction to create an amazing team-building experience.
We look forward to working with you and delivering our bespoke, entertaining Muay Thai classes to enrich your company’s community environment.

The Muay Thai Kick-boxing session run by Jed and Zac presented an amazing opportunity to not only release some pent-up energy and stresses from the week but also enabled me to connect with some of my colleagues, developing relationships and forming new ones. The session involved learning several punching and kicking techniques, with plenty of practice on the pads, with valuable feedback provided from the coaches. The session was a real workout, but we all left feeling energised and excited for the next one!
James, Mazars
Had a taster session with Jed and Zac, and absolutely loved every minute. They quickly had us trying techniques which gave everyone quite a sense of accomplishment. We were expertly and patiently guided through a series of moves, culminating in combinations, which was great for an hour-long taster! I know my team loved it as well, and we look forward to going back for more.
Marinos, Mazars
I was so pleased with Jed and Zac’s session with my team. It was their first time trying Muay Thai and they absolutely loved it. It really energised the team and made a fantastic break from the typical social activities we try and do. Jed and Zac are also great guys, and I would highly recommend them to anyone.
Botters
This was the first time we had ever arranged any kind of Muay Thai coaching and most certainly the first time many of my colleagues and I had any sort of Muay Thai training. Jed & Zac made the session a lot of fun and were extremely patient throughout the session, ensuring everyone was safe, having fun and a great way to relieve stress.
Several colleagues immediately asked when we will be booking more sessions which is a testament to how enjoyable the class was.
This is a great way to stay fit, learn something new and team building with colleagues we normally do no interact with on a day-to-day basis.
Liontrust Asset Management
I really enjoyed practicing again, it was a great way to unwind on a Monday! Both of you gave clear instructions and I liked that we were able to rotate between colleagues as we don’t all work together day to day so it felt really inclusive. I really hope Sweaty Betty books you guys in again!
Emma (Sweaty Betty)
The Muay Thai Wellness session was a very fun way to spend the afternoon with my colleagues. It’s one of the best wellness workshops I’ve experienced throughout my career and Jed was very helpful and encouraging!
Valentina (Legislate)
The session was really enjoyable and was a great team bonding experience. I felt that I could ask any questions! The exercises were explained really well and felt appropriate for all of our fitness levels. I would definitely recommend the session to anyone interested!
Alice (KPMG)
I really enjoyed it, learning and bonding with my colleagues were great. You two are really good at what you do, showing exact points and actually explaining it in simple terms to a beginner is something really hard to find. Thanks to you I am thinking of taking further lessons.
Melis (Onyx Capital)
At Picnic, we’re always looking for ways to bring our team together for interesting and engaging activities to promote collaboration, team bonding, and well-being. Our session with Jed & Zac did just that! It was so fun, full of energy and the team came away buzzing about how and when we could do more! Big thanks to Muay Thai Wellness!

Thank you for an invigorating evening thoroughly enjoyed the experience/class. Look forward to more classes.
Marie (Sweaty Betty)
The classes with Muay Thai Wellness are great! Not only a good way to get a good sweat but to learn the proper punching and kicking techniques. Jed and Zac paid attention to all of us and gave us tips to improve and understand while keeping it very entertaining as a bonding experience with my colleagues. I would highly recommend it if you want to learn, improve and have a great time.
