My name is Oaklee and I’m 13 years old, I train in Muay Thai, and it’s become my passion. As a youngster with ADHD and Autism, Muay Thai has been vital in helping me burn of my excess energies and channeling it into a positive journey. Through Muay Thai I have learned respect, and discipline. I eat sleep and train Muay Thai and my training, I also volunteer for a small home educated group coaching my skills:

Last year I began my competing journey which means I travel daily from Torquay to Plymouth to train as nowhere locally provides the required standard of training, or provides the competing opportunities. I have since won many titles and belts. As a result of my success in competing I have also had the opportunity to compete abroad.

I have now as a result been selected to represent Team GB and fight the finals in the Thailand. This is a prestigious event, and would really help put Muay Thai on the map in south Devon and hopefully help inspire many young athletes like myself.
