It is built through the slow, consistent grind—whether you are training for a fight or recovering from an injury. ## Photos and videos - [Video: This is my personal story of fighting back from a major shoulder injury that required surgery. The long and painful rehabilitation process reinforced my belief that true progress is never instant. I apply this lesson to my coaching, helping you build strength and skill one step at a time.](https://assets.mytribe.in/insecure/raw:1/plain/s3://mytribe-assets-production/60cf6bd9-29ad-415d-9f71-e7750d6dd1b8) - ![As a coach, I am committed to helping you discover the strength your body is capable of.

We train in a raw, garage-style setup because that is where the work gets done. You will be doing partner drills, heavy bag work, and sweat-drenched conditioning. It is uncomfortable, but it is real, and it is where you will actually build the endurance and technique that lasts. ### Building Resilience Life is a fight. That is not just a cliche. Whether I am navigating a business hurdle or managing post-surgery rehab for my shoulder, I use the same principles: *Dhairya* (patience), *Ekagrata* (focus), and *Shakti* (strength). I do not believe in instant results. I believe in showing up, even when it sucks. ### How We Train If you are coming to train with me, leave the ego at the door. I run my sessions with a rotation of Muay Thai, Boxing, and Kickboxing fundamentals. We are not doing 60 minutes of cardio posing. We are doing heavy bag work, partner pad work, and shadow boxing designed to correct your form. My batches are small, typically limited to 6–10 participants. This ensures I can actually see your footwork angles and correct your guard height. Whether you join my sessions in Richmond Town or I travel to you in North Bangalore for 1-on-1 coaching, the expectation is the same. You show up, you sweat, and you improve—even if it is just by an inch. ### Who This Is For I do not offer magic fitness programs. I offer a slow grind. If you are a busy professional trying to de-stress or a serious fighter preparing for a camp, the principles remain identical. Resilience is a muscle, and we build it through consistency. You do not need to be an athlete to start, but you do need to be ready to put in the work. ## About Prakash Ramakrishnan I am Prakash, a fighter to the bone. I do not believe in magic shortcuts; I believe in showing up even when you do not feel like it. Whether you are dealing with an injury or just want to get sharp, I will help you find your strength, one session at a time.
