A week of Muay Thai mastery at The Big Gym Larnaca

Renowned Brazilian WBC Muay Thai champion Barbara Aguiar recently led an extraordinary week-long seminar at The Big Gym Larnaca, captivating attendees with her impressive skills and exceptionally motivating energy.

The seminar, sponsored by McGibney Coaching, marked a special occasion for Cyprus’ martial arts community.

Barbara, celebrated for her achievements in the Muay Thai arena, brought an infectious positivity to the seminar, creating an atmosphere for learning and personal growth. Over the course of the week, participants were immersed in a detailed exploration of Muay Thai, covering a broad spectrum of techniques from foundational moves to complex strategies.

The extended duration of the seminar was a deliberate choice, ensuring that attendees had ample time to absorb the teachings and refine their techniques. Aguiar’s approach went beyond physical skills, delving into the mental and emotional facets that underpin the discipline of Muay Thai.

“Her energy and enthusiasm were just as instructive as her technical guidance,” shared an enthused participant.

This event was a significant contribution to making the seminar a reality. “We are delighted to have supported this event,” Patrick McGibney remarked. “Barbara Aguiar’s presence here in Larnaca has been a fantastic opportunity for local enthusiasts to engage with a world-class athlete and learn from her extensive experience.”

The WBC world champion is known for her strong clinch technique. The seminar culminated in a dynamic sparring session led by Barbara, allowing participants to observe and engage with the techniques they had learned in a practical setting. This hands-on experience reinforced the week’s teachings and provided an unforgettable highlight for all involved.

The Big Gym Larnaca hosts a variety of workshops and seminars, yet this particular event with Barbara has undoubtedly raised the bar for martial arts training in the region. The gym’s management team is already expressing interest in organising similar events in the future, acknowledging the immense value these experiences bring to their members and the broader sports community in Cyprus.

Participants left the seminar equipped with new skills, insights, and a heightened sense of motivation, a testament to Aguiar’s effectiveness as an instructor and the seminar’s success. The impact of this event is expected to resonate within the local Muay Thai scene, fostering a more robust and enthusiastic martial arts community.
