MUAY THAI

Muay Thai is a hard martial art from Thailand. It is similar to other Indochinese styles of boxing, descended from Muay Boran, Muay Thai is Thailand's national sport. Muay Thai is unique in that the fighter has eight weapons to use; punches, kicks, elbows and knees. The down side is that the Nak Muay (Thai boxer) has to learn how to defend against eight weapons making Muay Thai boxing one of the most comprehensive and effective martial arts in the world.

Like western boxing Muay Thai boxing uses a boxing ring with ‘rounds’. Fighters have to be very fit which is why Muay Thai training incorporates cardio vascular sessions.
