Master Song is great for learning the basics....anything much further than like ring stradeges and tips there are far better trainers in the city.

Chris Francos gym i find teachs more of the Dutch style of kickboxing with a strong base in boxing punching followed by hard muay thai kicks. Jeff Thornhill also teaches at Franco kickboxing, who has trained with the likes of Remy, Kaman and Aerts and spreads a lot of knoldege around.

ISKA ranked Jason Fenton is opening a gym in Richmond Bc... It's called Iron City Muay thai and you can find the group on facebook.

Edid Jason Fento fought Yodsanklai Fairtex in 2006 aswell. And is working with contenders season 2
