Amanda Tutterrow
Owner of Thai Kickboxing Organization-Hickory
Ms. Amanda has been studying and training martial arts at TKO in Statesville since 2016. After watching her son take classes for a couple of months, she decided to join the fun and started taking the Women’s Kickboxing Fit Class. She quickly fell in love with the sport, and soon after joined the Co-Ed Muay Thai Class. She trained for many years, tested through the ranks, and ultimately achieved her black belt in American Kickboxing. After years of training, she was able to begin sharing her knowledge with others, and has been teaching at TKO in Statesville for more than 5 years.
She has also competed in kickboxing, and has been training regularly in Thailand since 2019. Amanda feels strongly that to be a good instructor it is important to also be a lifelong student of martial arts. She continues to visit Thailand not only to make herself better, but to bring the latest teaching tools and strategies home to her students.
One thing Ms. Amanda wants everyone to understand about Muay Thai, is that this sport is for EVERYONE! Whether you want to get in shape, learn a new skill, relieve stress, or even participate in competitions, anyone can learn and have fun doing so!
Adam Tutterrow
Owner of Thai Kickboxing Organization-Hickory
Coach Adam has been a part of TKO Statesville since 2017, when he gained interest in learning Muay Thai from watching his son take classes. It started as a fun way for him to bond with his family, and quickly became his favorite activity! Coach Adam earned his black belt in American kickboxing and has studied in Thailand several times. He especially enjoys teaching the Muay Thai clinch in the Adult Co-Ed class at TKO in Statesville.
Learning Muay Thai and kickboxing became a great way for him to build confidence, learn self-defense, and stay in shape. However, learning and teaching martial arts has become more about the people that he has met along the way. From his trips to Thailand, visiting other gyms in the US, and especially in his local community, he learned that Muay Thai brings people together, and he has developed great friendships that are rooted in the love of this sport. He wants everyone to know that Muay Thai is open to everyone, and the sense of community that comes along with the sport is extremely rewarding.
