fehn-foss-cmto.jpg

Fehn won both her Saturday and Sunday bouts against very game and tough opponents to become the 63.5kg Canadian Muay Thai Open Champion this on Sunday, August 25, 2024.

Tournaments can be super tough, not only because of the high number fights an athlete must compete in to clinch the championship title but the days are super long (weigh-ins start at 7am and some fights happen late at night) making for long wait times.

Despite that, Fehn successfully weighed-in all 3 days and put on a very strong and technical performance in the ring making her, without any doubt, the CMTO Champion this weekend! 👑🔥

Don’t forget to congratulate her when Fehn returns to Lotus after some much deserved rest and relaxation!!

After 2+ years of Covid-19 related restrictions, we’re so happy that Muay Thai and competition is back in full swing!

In the last few months, the Lotus Fight Team has been busy. Besides Poo Choi Kru Charles Chen winning the 60kg Open Class Canadian Championship belt, Fehn Foss and Phillip Kalicki won their fights at the Maximus Fight Night II event on February 11, 2023.

Poo Choi Kru Hyedie Hashimoto returned to the ring after an almost 4 year hiatus on March 25, 2023 at the InFightStyle Cup – All Female Muay Thai event at the Japanese Cultural Centre. It was a close match and although she lost to her opponent, we are incredibly proud of her performance.

Congratulations to Charles Chen, our Poo Choi Kru, for becoming the new 60kg Canadian National Muay Thai Champion (Open Class)

In an exciting rematch at the Art of War 6, held in Ottawa at the Canadian War Museum, he defeated Gregory Gauvin from Siam No.1 Quebec a second time to win the championship.

Charles teaches classes at Lotus multiple times per week, is available for personal training sessions, and also leads Lotus’ fight team.

Thank you to Tony of Diamond Capital Promotions, and InFightStyle for the extremely well run event!

The entire Lotus family is proud of you, Charles!

Three Lotus athletes competed at the 2022 Muay Thai Ontario Provincials Championship over July 20-31, 2022.

This is the first time since the Covid-19 pandemic that the tournament has been held.

Fehn Foss won her matches to be crowed the 2022 Provincial champion in her class.

We’re proud of Stephanie Kao and Cory Liu for competing and earning Silver medal finishes.

As we put the Covid-19 pandemic behind us (hopefully!) we look forward to more tournaments and fights to have the opportunity to test and express our Muay Thai in the ring!

Want to eventually try competing? We offer an Intro to Sparring class for experienced practitioners that want to move beyond just hitting pads, to learn how to apply the techniques in sparring.

Our first two weeks since re-opening in the Province of Ontario’s Stage 3 framework has been a tremendous success! Thank you to everyone both new and old for joining us. We’re really happy about the positive feedback we’ve received about how good it feels to be back to training, and our bright and inspiring space (with a big garage door for tons of ventilation!).

There’s nothing like training together as a community, and also smashing pads with one another!

Check out some of the photos from our first couple of weeks of re-opening:
