Thai Boxing
Thai boxing is one of the brightest martial arts. People who master its skills learn to defeat any opponent, but before all of that, ourselves.
History and benefits of Thay boxing classes
Ancient Muay Thai started to develop at the beginning of the XIII century. According to legend, four jutubah warriors defended the King of Thailand by using muay thai. The development of Thai boxing was largely influenced by Chinese wushu, from which jumping techniques were taken. By the end of the 19th century, physical education departments were opened in military academies in Thailand, where Thai boxing was one of the mandatory classes, and it was practiced twice per week. Later in the same century, common Muay Thai rules were developed, making it the spectacular and popular form of martial arts that it is today.
The fighting formula in Muay Thai is based on full contact, where strikes are with maximum force. This is a unique aspect of this martial art, and it is also what makes it different from others. The most characteristic Thai boxing techniques are low kicks, like mawashi gedan, which can easily knock down the opponent.
Some benefits of Muay Thai include:
- Learning striking techniques with hands, elbows, legs and knees
- development of strength, endurance, reaction speed, and awareness
- Learning about fearlessness, and strengthening the fighting spirit
- Study of ancient martial arts traditions and rituals of Muay Thai
Like all martial arts, Muay Thai improves mood and boosts self-confidence. Also, techniques learned from it can be used in self defense.
