This fight, Quang was challenging his opponent for the WMC Super Lightweight State Title, and he was more than ready to make a statement. With both fighters known for their explosivity and knockout power, the stakes couldn't have been higher!
Using a sharp jab (our weekly topic at the time 😉) to control the distance and set up heavy combinations, Quang showcased incredible timing, composure and defence over five hard rounds.
His efforts earned him a unanimous decision victory, claiming the WMC State Title. With Quang's friends, family and supporters screaming their heart out, all of Doncaster heard about his win! 🎉
Jack stepped into the ring on July 18 for his 3rd professional bout. Matched against a tough and more experienced opponent from Queensland, Jack fought a smart, composed fight from start to finish. Timing his kicks perfectly, he landed damaging calf and head kicks that steadily broke down his opponent's confidence and controlled the pace of the contest. 🙌
His sharp technique, patience and composure earned him a unanimous decision victory, with his family and the Strike crew cheering him on every step of the way as he claimed another impressive professional win. 🏆

More About Bianca
Bianca started Muay Thai 10 years ago! She thought that people who worked out were a little bit silly (can you believe that?!). She decided to give Muay Thai a try because she thought it looked really cool, and with the guidance of her first coach, Jacinta Paskalidis, she quickly fell in love with the art.
Her favourite part about Muay Thai is the confidence it has given her. Taking on something as challenging as Muay Thai has taught her that if she can make through a session, she can do anything! She loves that it challenges both the body and the mind, requiring you to learn how to move your whole body together while constantly solving new problems. Just as importantly, she treasures the incredible people she has met throughout her Muay Thai journey.
After 10 years of training, what keeps Bianca coming back is simple: it's fun! She believes there is no better feeling than working hard at something and seeing that effort pay off over time.
Outside the gym, Bianca runs her own clothing brand, loves sewing and making clothes, enjoys skateboarding, spends plenty of time drawing, and is a big fan of hip hop, especially the group Jurassic 5.
Bianca's advice for everyone is...
"Find the value in the difficulty of the experience,
not in the outcome."
She believes this applies not only to Muay Thai but to anything in life that is worth pursuing.
We are so grateful to have Bianca as part of the Strike Studio family. She brings such a warm, caring and welcoming energy to the gym and always makes those around her feel supported. Thank you for everything you contribute to our community, Bianca. We are lucky to have you!

Kick Start 2026
What a Day!
Kick Start once again proved why it's one of the biggest and most exciting events on the Strike Studio calendar. The gym was buzzing with energy as members stepped onto the mats, challenged themselves, and supported one another throughout an unforgettable day of Muay Thai.
A huge congratulations to all of our competitors who represented Strike Studio with courage, determination, and incredible sportsmanship. Whether it was your first time competing or you were a seasoned fighter, you made the entire Strike community proud.
This event also reminded us that Muay Thai is about more than just competition—it's about supporting each other and giving back. Thanks to the generosity of our members, families, volunteers, and supporters, we were able to raise $[AMOUNT] for [CHARITY/ORGANISATION], helping make a real difference beyond the gym.
To everyone who volunteered, coached, cornered fighters, helped behind the scenes, or came along to cheer thank you. Kick Start wouldn't be possible without you.
We're already looking forward to the next one!
