What Is Muay Thai

Muay Thai is the national sport of Thailand and is practiced in large parts of the world, including Southeast Asia, Europe, and the United States. Traditional Muay Thai practiced today varies significantly from the ancient art Muay Boran and uses kicks and punches in a ring with gloves similar to those used in Western boxing.

​

Muay Thai is referred to as “The Art of the Eight Limbs“, as the fists, shins, elbows, and knees are all used extensively in this art. A practitioner of Muay Thai (“nak muay“) thus has the ability to execute strikes using eight “points of contact,” as opposed to “two points” (fists) in Western boxing and “four points” (fists, feet) used in the primarily sport-oriented forms of martial arts. Muay Thai is a professional sport played around the world including the USA. It has already been approved as an Olympic sport as well in 2021.
