Self-built gym in Bundu Tuhan producing martial arts talents
Mohamad Rizal is shaping young fighters from Kundasang and Ranau into future martial arts contenders, one training session at a time.
RANAU: A modest, self-built training facility in Kampung Bundu Tuhan is quietly emerging as a grassroots sports hub, producing young martial arts talents through the dedication of a local coach who has turned personal sacrifice into community impact.

Coach Mohamad Rizal Omar, a native of Kundasang and founder of the Fitness Bundu Tuhan training centre in Siba, Bundu Tuhan, built the facility from the ground up using his own time, energy, and financial resources.

What began as a simple training space has since evolved into a consistent development platform for local children and youths.

The centre actively trains young people from Bundu Tuhan and Kundasang in Taekwondo, Muay Thai, and boxing, providing structured coaching despite limited facilities.
