Program

Weight loss & detox

The Weight Loss & Detox Programs aren’t just about food and exercise, instead they’re about detoxifying your life. Exercising, eating a clean diet, living in nature and partaking in mindful exercises, such as yoga and meditation are considered to greatly improve mental health as well as the physical self. At the end of the day, the two go hand in hand.

Now imagine being at a retreat that combines all of these and puts them together such a way that your new lifestyle change becomes second nature.

Welcome to Battle Conquer.

You’ll start with the “Raw Fest” (optional may not be suitable for all guests.) This allows the colon to rest by removing a complex diet and providing natural energy and vitamins from raw foods. After five days your body will be ready to start enjoying our fresh Thai food packed with heaps of nutrition.

Wellness, Your Strive for Health.

To help you reset & unwind we have daily guided meditation at unique locations like our nature walk and pretty local temples with their unusual architecture. There are hikes that take you to breathtaking views & Thai massage treatments to help you unwind and help boost muscle recovery.

The week ends with a spiritual trip to our local temple for teachings and guided meditation from our only English-speaking monk.

Muay Thai Battle Conquer

Muay Thai Battle Conquer is a traditional, family-run gym with deep roots in the fight game. The Keawma family has been involved in fighting, training, and promoting Muay Thai for decades, they accept all levels of fitness and experience making it perfect for all, age and ability are no barrier!

The name of the gym itself comes from the Thai saying Phichit Suk, said to fighters for good luck and translating to “battle conquer.”

Included excursions

The Buddha Run.

Take the Battle Conquer challenge of climbing three hundred steep steps to a hillside temple set in a cave as many times as you can in one hour or simply relax at the top taking in the magnificent views.

Fish Temple & Monkey Temple, feed the monkeys and fish.

The first stop is the market to buy bananas, make sure you have a lot as there is going to be plenty of hungry monkeys. Next stop is the pretty Fish Temple set out on a jetty with stone steps leading down to the water. Give a donation for a bag of fish food and be amazed at the sheer size of the fish ready to greet you.

Temple visits with guided meditation

Four times a week we take you to a different local temple to sit and mediate with our teachers. The temples are all very different and beautiful with plenty of interesting architecture and paintings to see.

Meditation with English speaking Monk

Guidance and teachings from our humble Monk, the only one in this province who speaks English.

Etiquette for visiting Monk and Temples.

Be sure to have your shoulders and knees covered when visiting any of the temples, shoes must be taken off before you go in. Also, as part of Thai tradition, it is good manners to leave a donation in the collection box to help pay towards the running costs and utility bills.

Sunday Gym Excursion.

Everyone looks forward to the Sunday rest day! There are many beautiful places to visit in Phetchabun so on Sunday, they take you to their favourites. It could be the stunning Nong Pye Lake, one of Phetchabun's largest set deep in the valley with beautiful panoramic views, take a raft out and relax, swim, fish, if you’d like refreshments, it’s not a problem, simply wave a flag and you can order the most delicious food and drinks delivered to your raft.

Hiking

We have several hikes that we use throughout the year depending on the season. Some take you into the jungle to a pretty waterfall, others up to the big lake for swimming or off on a tour of the countryside.

Instructors

Pau

Pau has been trained by his uncle and fighting since the age of four. By the age of 14, he had more than 100 fights under his belt and was recruited to fight out of the Wy Cun Gym in Bangkok, where he trained and fought alongside Saensak Muangsurin, the great boxer who became the WBC welterweight. Pau built a record of 58 wins and 10 losses during his time in Bangkok. Pau continued to develop a wealth of Muay Thai knowledge to this day, which he teaches in a traditional and very intuitive style. Whether just beginning or a seasoned fighter, you’ll be sure to learn a great deal from him.

Bee

Bee is one of our home grown fighters, and has been training at Battle Conquer Gym since the age of 9. While his fighter name is Pet Tai, referees tend to refer to him as Hitman. They are not fooled by his sweet face as they know him to be a killer in the ring, particularly skilled in elbow technique. He has had 58 fights (winning 34 times), and is somewhat famous at the Nakhon Sawan Stadium, one of the biggest venues in the area. He can be bashful, but is very playful and a delight to be around.

Bey

Bey is one of our masters, with 128 fights under his belt (75 wins), and all at the tender age of 22. He has multiple championships in Bangkok, at both the Lumpini and Rajadamnern stadiums, and was once light weight champion in Chiang Mai. He is known for being quick in the ring, and will coach you to be the same as he gets you powered up and fight ready. But trying to punch Bey will be one of the hardest challenges you face at Battle Conquer.

Yo

Yo has 25 western boxing fights and 71 Muay Thai fights under his belt. He's represented Thailand at olympic level for Western Boxing and we are lucky to have such a talented fighter and trainer at our camp. Coaching now for five years you will learn a lot from Yo.

Quan

Quan has been in the ring 57 times and won 32 fights. Among these fights is premiering at Saraburi stadium, one of the largest in Thailand. He recently returned to Battle Conquer after a few months absence and due to his wonderfully welcoming attitude to all guests he was greeted heartily upon his return. He is strong, fast and can adapt to all levels.

Pepo

Pepo is our youngest trainer, but don’t let that fool you. At 17 he has already been fighting for 10 years, and has fought in 30 matches. He started his training in Pattaya and won a belt in Sattahip. His kicks in particular are acrobatic, and it is fun to watch him as he flies through the air. Let him teach you how to do the same. Pepo is quiet and gentle and a particularly good trainer for beginners.

Luk

Luk, another native of Battle Conquer Gym, has been training here since the age of 12. He has 45 fights to his name (28 wins), and once earned the title of Light Weight Champion at Phitsanulok. He has expert technique, particularly adept with his knees and elbows. But he also has a secret weapon in the ring, he disarms his opponents with his broad and unceasing smile. He is full of energy, a wonderful jokester, and loves teaching.

Jad

Jad has been fighting for over 30 years, and has racked up 360 fights. Included in this count is winning the light weight championship in North Thailand. To expand his skills further Jad traveled to Myanmar where he fought and won in Muay Kaad Chuek, a bare knuckles form of boxing native to that country. Before coming to Battle Conquer Gym Jad opened a gym in his home town where he taught young kids to fight. Jad is tireless, and while he will push you to your limits, he is known around here for how encouraging he is.

Jacks

Training since the age of 12, Jacks has fought in Bangkok in both the Lumpini and Rajadamnern stadiums, once winning the championship at the latter. All told he has been in 300 fights. He spent three years in China, teaching Muay Thai and learning Chinese, before returning to Thailand to join us at Battle Conquer Gym. He is soft spoken and a caring gentle warrior.

Game

With 200 fights under his belt, and 145 wins, Game is a highly expert coach. In fact, he has himself trained two fighters through to championship wins. After he was named Champion of North Thailand, he traveled to China where he taught Muay Thai for a year. While he has the skills of an expert champion, his gift is always making people feel good about their workouts, even beginners.

Location

An untouched paradise set in the heart of Thailand’s farmland, the province of Phetchabun is a quiet, peaceful place where you can feel at home in nature.

There are so many amazing experiences to be had here from visiting temples and meditating with monks to taking out a raft on the largest lake to fully kicking back and relaxing.
