Trainers

Joe Hilton

Joe is recognised as one of the top Muay Thai trainers in the world. He commands commitment and dedication from all his fighters and has enjoyed great success with the likes of Tony ''Hollywood'' Hill, Aaron ''Pshyco'' Kirkby, Vince ''Viscious'' Parkes, Travis and Hope Elson as well as World Title holder Warren Elson, just to name a few. Joe has been one of the coaches for the Australian Muay Thai Team since 2000, and with all this, still finds time to be heavily involved in the running of Oceania Muay Thai Federation and the World Muay Thai Council (WMC).

Frank Watkins

Frank Watkins is one our most recent addition to the Sunshine Coast Thai Boxing training team. His experience in the ring and presence in the gym inspires those around him to excel.

Frank has the respect of his fellow athletes & his commitment to training & events is well supported throughout the gym.

Clayton "Bully" Bull

Bully has been involved in the art of Muay Thai since 1992 both as an assistant trainer to Joe and as a competitor in the ring. He is a qualified referee and judge and is also heavily involved with Surf Lifesaving as an instructor/examiner, holding advanced first aid and resuscitation certificates.

When not taking classes he applies his many years of experience in assisting with technique correction.

A gym favourite, you will always see Bully commiting 100%.

Brodie Stalder

Brodie runs our junior Thai Boxing classes and although our most junior member of the team, he brings with him a level headedness and maturity way beyond his years.

He started training as an eleven year old and now fights as a fly weight but because of his size he has trouble finding opponents in his age division and so has to travel overseas to find suitable competition. He has competed in 3 World Amateur Games, once in Kazakhstan winning gold and twice in Thailand winning silver and gold.

Brodie has the respect of all our members at S.C.T.B.C. with his wealth of knowledge in Muaythai & his experience he is one athlete to keep an eye on.
