An extraordinary martial artist and mentor, Nikolay Shegay is the dynamic force that drives our Muay Thai Kik program. With 3rd Degree Black Belts in TaeKwonDo, Hapkido, and Karate, Nikolay embodies the spirit of the disciplined warrior. His crowning glory came in 2018 when he clinched his first Muay Thai Kickboxing Championship Belt with a breath-taking TKO in the first 30 seconds of the 1st round.

But Nikolay’s journey is about more than his accolades. He’s dedicated to sharing his expertise, guiding students of all skill levels and backgrounds on their transformative Muay Thai journey.

Nikolay’s approach to teaching sets him apart. As one student aptly reviewed, “Nikolay is the best Muay Thai instructor. He’s really talented and knowledgeable but still super relatable and funny. He makes the whole experience enjoyable while pushing us to our limits.” This balance of tough love and humor, dedication and approachability makes Nikolay not just a great instructor, but a valued mentor and friend.
