MUAY THAI

“DISCIPLINE, POWER AND RESPECT IN EVERY STRIKE”

Muay Thai, also known as the "Art of Eight Limbs," has its roots in ancient Siamese (now Thailand) fighting techniques, developed for self-defense and military use hundreds of years ago. It evolved from martial arts practices like Muay Boran, becoming a modern combat sport with well-defined rules and traditions.
