The bevy of beauties continued at Tiger Muay Thai and MMA training camp, Phuket, Thailand this week with former Miss Switzerland, Tajna Gutmann, and Nina-Vanessa Heinemann on-site to study the art of Muay Thai. The hosts of the new Swiss travel show, The Holiday Checker, learned the ropes during the beginner’s Muay Thai class before going one-on-one with Rachadamnuen champions, Kru Lamsongkram and his brother, Kru Laimangkon.
“This was the perfect experience because it was real,” explained Heinemann right after the session. “It isn’t just for tourists. I can’t believe what you get for the price. There’s no way you’ll get something like this anywhere else.”
The show, which features the ladies trying a variety of different adventure activities, has already filmed in the Canary Islands, the Dominican Republic and Egypt.
“Traveling has been an incredible experience,” exclaims Gutmann. “It has allowed us to see so many wonderful things and meet such amazing people…just like the people here at Tiger.”
When asked to compare her pageant days to her day of training, the former title holder could only shake her head and laugh.
The Holiday Checker airs February 2012.
