Who is Jak? Jak started Kickboxing under a streetfighter - Ajarn (Grandmaster ) Bakar @ Bakawali from Thailand when he was only 13 years of age (1974) in Kelantan (The northen state of the Malaysian peninsula, close to the southern border of Thailand). It was from Ajarn Bakar (who was nick-named King Tiger), where the young Jak learned the fighting art of Thai Kickboxing. For 5 years, 5 days week, the veteran street fighter taught a group of young boxers (the young Jak being one of them) on the sandy beaches of Sabak in Kelantan.
Why would I want to do Kickboxing?
In a few simple words - Keep fit, kick fat and kick butt!
Where is the studio? Our studio is situated in the prime area of Subang Jaya, Selangor Darul Ehsan. Just 2-3 minutes walk from nearby colleges (Taylor's College, Inti College, Metropolitan College). Our studio is strategically located in the middle of a business area, with alot of cafes and restaurants nearby. Ideal place for a good drink after class sessions or to hang out with other members of the club! Hard to miss landmarks are the Burger King and the Mc Donalds Restaurants -We are just in the same row. -Click here to view landmarks-
After 27 years, Jak still practices the style of Kickboxing which was taught to him by his master. The veteran streetfighter passed away in 1990 and Jak vowed to carry on the tradition of the King Tiger School of Muay Thai. In 1995 , the King Tiger Muay thai Kickboxing International was formed by Jak to preserve and promote Ajarn Bakar @ Bakawali 's style of Muay Thai kickboxing.
At the time, Ajarn Bakar was on the run after killing his opponent and winning an underground fight in Thailand which he was not meant to win. He created the rumour that he was hiding in Singapore in order to draw attention away from him, and he moved to Sabak (Kelantan) to work as a fisherman during the day and to teach Muay Thai during the night. After 5 years of training under the veteran street fighter, Jak graduated from junior college and went to the UK to further his studies.
