About Muay Thai

Muay Thai, also known as "The Art of Eight Limbs," is a stand-up striking combat sport that originated in Thailand. It uses the entire body as a weapon, allowing the use of punches, kicks, elbows, and knee strikes, making it one of the most versatile and effective striking arts.

The combat sport is known for its brutal and devastating techniques and its focus on body conditioning. Muay Thai became widespread internationally in the late 20th century when Thai fighters began defeating notable practitioners of other martial arts.
