MUAY THAI
Muay Thai the "ancient art of 8 limbs" is one of the most powerful and effective martial arts in the world. Developed over thousands of years, this ancient martial art of Thailand is known for its tremendous power, maximum efficiency, and raw simplicity. Muay Thai utilizes a beautiful symphony of kicks, punches, knees, and elbows with fluidity and grace. It is one of the handful of martial arts in the world that has been undeniably battle-tested, street-certified, and ring-proven for real-life encounters. Muay Thai is also infused heavily in rich tradition and Thai culture as it is the national sport of Thailand. It has been around for more than 2000 years and is basically regarded as the oldest variant of martial arts.
