Beth Whitehair is the instructor for the womens only class and one of the instructors for our kids class.

Beth has been with OMT since April of 2007. Coming in to learn muay thai was a huge step. Beth had never done anything like this. She still talks about how nervous she was! From the first class, she loved us and we loved her. She is a hard worker and a great person. She has fought, helps with demonstrations and seminars in the community and is one of our Ambassadors.

When we asked if she would teach the women's class, she was very excited. In Beth's words, she "likes being able to give someone the confidence they didn't have in the ability to workout, throw a punch, knee and kick. I love the fact that I am helping someone in their journey to better themselves physically, emotionally and mentally".

You will see Beth at just about every class. She has become not only a fighter, but a leader and motivator. She will tell you Muay Thai is her passion and she loves being able to share her experiences and help teach what she loves.

Butch Writesel is one of our kids class instructors.

He has been with OMT - West Side since June of 2005. Butch came with a friend wanting to do something different. He enjoyed learning muay thai and once again, wanted to do something different, he decided to fight. In training to fight, he realized he enjoyed the running. What? A fighter enjoying running?! After he fought, he wasn't sure he wanted to fight again, but thought he would try running a marathon and has since ran several marathons.

Butch wants to share with the kids how muay thai helped him become a motivated and healthier person and do things he never thought he could do. Butch enjoys working with kids and being able to help teach kids Muay Thai. He says there's nothing like seeing the kids gain technique, strength and confidence from the first class.
