Ciarain Shanahan
Muay Thai Instructor, Personal Trainer
I embarked on my Muay Thai journey at the age of 14, and since then, I have garnered numerous titles in both Kickboxing and Muay Thai on a global scale. I proudly hold the titles of 4-time Irish Champion, 3-time English Champion, silver medallist in the 5 Nations Tournament, and European Champion. With a total of 28 fights under my belt, I have secured 23 victories and suffered 5 defeats.
Dubbed "The Menace," I have made a name for myself in the world of Muay Thai by unleashing a relentless barrage of punches, kicks, knees, and elbows. I’ve caused major upsets against prominent fighters, proving that I am a force to be reckoned with. My distinctive style is both formidable and difficult to handle, pushing anyone who steps into the ring with me to their limits.
Currently, I am ranked at the top in several countries, including Ireland (#1) and Mexico (#1), UK (#2) and I hold the 8th position in the official WBC world rankings. Recently, I claimed the prestigious title of WBC National Champion.
Both inside and outside the ring, I am known for my strength and intriguing personality. For a deeper understanding of my lifestyle and training, please feel free to explore my social media accounts. Instagram; @Ciarainpt
In 2023, I transitioned to Hertford Combat Academy, forming lifelong friendships and cultivating remarkable connections has been a rewarding experience since becoming a member of the gym.
I approach coaching with the same intensity and dedication that I apply to my own training—maintaining unwavering focus and putting in hard work throughout our sessions. Whether we're concentrating on fitness or honing specific techniques, my goal is to elevate your fighting style to new heights.
Feel free to approach me at the gym anytime or reach out with any questions. Looking forward to seeing you there soon!
