Tony Mosley is the instructor at the west side O.M.T. location.  With over 20 years of muay thai experience, he and his wife, Jane, were given the honor by their trainer, Master Lek, to open their own school .

Kru Tony has an impressive muay thai fight record boasting only one loss.  He has trained and been sparring partner to national and international fighters and has served as corner man in a number of tournaments, including Bangkok, Thailand.  He has always shown great sportsmanship and drive in his training and appreciation for the opportunity to fight.  Once they opened their school, he decided to retire from fighting and concentrate on training his own stable of fighters. 

Kru Jane is an instructor, sparring partner and trainer.  She serves as promoter for Ohio Muay Thai fights organizing and coordinating fighters, sponsors and venues.  She is also responsible for arranging special appearances and events, which have included everything from news shows and school programs to festivals and self defense classes.  Jane has had several articles on muay thai and Thailand published.  She wrote for Muay Thaimes Magazine with her own feature column called Confessions of a Corner Woman.

Tony and Jane have traveled to Thailand, visiting and training in Bangkok and Chiang Mai.  They continue to study muay thai and the Thai culture.  They have a respect and passion for muay thai and pass this on to their students, family and friends.

They have several students that train to fight and many that are participating for health and fun.  In addition to running their school, they conduct classes at recreation centers, youth centers, home schooled programs and numerous high schools and colleges.

 

Justin McAtee has been with Ohio Muay Thai since the summer of 2006. He has been one of our biggest success stories.

He came to us after watching Jackie Chan and Jet Li movies. After coming to class, we explained that even Jackie Chan and Jet Li would have to start as a beginner at our school. Justin says he couldn't believe how different a real class was compared to movies! After his first class, Justin inquired about "homework". Tony told him footwork. Well, Justin did that homework! He was doing footwork during rest periods at the gym, at home and at his job. His dedication paid off. Justin lost his first fight, continued in his training and is since undefeated. He still comes in and does his footwork.

In Justin's own words...."through the next five years I would receive an education about life, family, hard work, discipline, friendship, respect, and honor. As a teenager I lacked direction and discipline, but Tony and Jane Mosley helped me mold my character into the man I was destined to be. In 2009 I went back to college as a new person and thanks to Ohio Muay Thai, Tony, Jane, and all of my fellow students, I have developed a courage to accomplish anything. I respect and cherish what has been passed to me through generations of teachers. It is a great gift and a blessing to be able to watch students gain the confidence to work hard and become skilled at muay thai."

Justin teaches our Wednesday night classes. He teaches students the basics or more advanced techniques. He will push students to try harder and encourage those who need it. Justin will tell you that the hardest part about teaching is ending class!

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.
