Muay Thai (Thai Boxing)
The most practical and effective of the
striking arts. Learn how to kick, punch, knee, and elbow.
Muay Thai or Thai Boxing, is a martial art with origins in the ancient battlefield
tactics of the Siamese (or Thai) army. It evolved from Krabi-Krabong, literally
sword and baton, the hand-to-hand tactics of the Thai army.
Muay Thai is known as "King of the Ring" in kickboxing circles. These fights feature
punches, kicks, elbows, knees, standing grappling and head-butts to wear down and
knock out their opponent. Thai training methods develop devastating power, speed
and superb cardio-vascular endurance as well as fighting spirit.
Muay Thai training is also quite safe thanks to sophisticated pad training that
evolved to keep fighters healthy between fights. Muay Thai has also proven very
effective outside the ring and has been embraced enthusiastically by practitioners
of a variety of self-defense, sporting, military and law enforcement activities.
