About Muay Thai

Various forms of kickboxing have long been practiced throughout mainland Southeast Asia. In Thailand, Muay Thai specialists were ordered to protect the ancient elephants during wars. They used nothing but the ancient art that was taught to them from early childhood. Muay Boran, and therefore Muay Thai, was originally called toi muay or simply muay. As well as being a practical fighting technique for use in actual warfare, muay became a sport in which the opponents fought in front of spectators who went to watch for entertainment.Muay Thai is the integration of many regional muays, be Muay Chaiya, Muay Korat,Muay Tarsao, Muay Jearng, which can be called as muay boran (ancient boxing), an unarmed combat method which would probably have been used by Siamese soldiers after losing their weapons in battle. Some believe that the ancient Siamese military created Muay Boran from the weapon-based art of krabi krabong but others contend that the two were merely developed alongside each other. Krabi krabong nevertheless was an important influence on Muay Boran and so Muay Thai can be seen in several kicks, holds and the movements in the wai khru which have their origins in armed combat.
