Thai Kickboxing Organization

Operating since 2018 at 962 Davie Avenue in Statesville, NC, with a second location in Hickory, Thai Kickboxing Organization is a Kru-certified Muay Thai and kickboxing academy serving Iredell County. Known as TKO, the center teaches the Eight Limbs of Muay Thai, combining punches, kicks, knees, and elbows for self-defense and full-body conditioning. Instruction is guided by a head Kru who travels to Thailand to study and refine techniques alongside instructor Hannah. Class tracks include Children's Muay Thai Kickboxing, Junior High Muay Thai Kickboxing, Adult CO-ED Muay Thai Kickboxing, and Women's Kickboxing Fit. Youth classes emphasize a five-principle Student Code of Courtesy, Integrity, Perseverance, Self Control, and Respect alongside bully prevention. Coached by Hannah, the barefoot Women's Kickboxing Fit class runs in timed rounds on cushioned mats, blending boxing, kickboxing, knee and elbow strikes, heavy bags, ground bags, Thai Pads, and cross-training circuits supported by an on-site TKO Pro Shop.
