Coaching background
Lara’s martial arts journey began in her youth with kickboxing, but it wasn’t until early 2023 that she truly found her passion in Muay Thai. From her very first session, under the guidance of Jonathan Moore (founder of MGM Gym), she was hooked. Having originally struggled to find a sport that truly resonated with her, Muay Thai provided the perfect balance of skill, discipline, and fitness - quickly becoming an integral part of her life. At MGM Gym, Lara coaches on both the children’s and women’s programmes. She is especially passionate about empowering women through Muay Thai, working closely alongside our lead women’s coach Steffi to inspire, support, and grow the female community at the gym. Lara’s coaching style is supportive, encouraging and fun, with a strong focus on fundamental techniques and building confidence. Lara is dedicated to helping every student progress in their journey, both on and off the mats.
