Muay Thai

Emyr3.jpg

Here I am in a Muay Thai kickboxing training session with Emyr Dakin, US Welterweight Champion. Emyr is one of the partners at my incredible gym, Five Points Fitness. The reason my face is so red is that I was totally out of breath. The most ambitous aerobic exercise I've ever done until now has been to raise my arm and shout "Taxi!"

I am telling you here that Five Points Fitness's Muay Thai kick-boxing tournaments are becoming the in thing to do with the downtown NYU/Village Voice crowd. The next match will be Feb. 4th at the Great Hall at Cooper Union.

What does this have to do with the JayDay website? It's my way of encouraging you to come experience something totally out of your comfort zone. I also think that some clever marketer out there is going to want to figure out how to play a major sponsorship role in what is a hip new "underground" event.

Oh, baby! Look at you

You should see my smile when I saw this picture. Why? I too love Muay Thai (I've been doing it for the last 5 years) ... and I work for TBWA\ :]
