On 2 and 3 October 2026, Team Boom left the gym in Pointe aux Canonniers for Mont Choisy beach. Two days of muay thai under the casuarina trees, tents pitched on the sand, and the whole team together: the youngest from the kids' school, the beginners, the fighters. Here is how it went.

Camp on the beach
Arrival on Friday. The first test, before the first kick: putting up your tent. Under the trees, a few metres from the lagoon, the camp went up tent by tent — tents of every colour, bags of gloves piled in the middle. In the evening, a shared meal under the gazebo. You sleep on the sand and wake up facing the sea.
On the programme: the fundamentals
The Training Camp was not a holiday. The announced programme was technique, conditioning, cardio and endurance, and that is exactly what was done. Lined up on the sand, gloves on, coach Jonathan Gabriel gives the instructions; then the pairs form: pad work, high kicks, punch-kick combinations, light sparring. Between drills, push-ups and burpees with your hands in the sand.
Sand changes everything, and that is the point. Your feet sink into the sand, every step takes more effort, and each movement tests your balance. We explain this in more detail in our article on beach training: the camp extended this approach over two days instead of a single session.
Everyone, from the youngest to the most seasoned
The group photo by the water says it better than a paragraph: children from the kids' school, adults who came for fitness, competitors. The groups worked together, the more experienced holding the pads for the younger ones. That is what makes a club: the same beach, the same training, everyone at their own level.
What comes next
The camp is over, training continues at the gym on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays, with beach sessions announced on WhatsApp. If the photos make you want to try: your first class is booked on WhatsApp at +230 5981 9849, gloves provided, all levels.
