SevenStar Posted February 18, 2005 Posted February 18, 2005 I'm not sure what they are, but I'm positive it's not muay thai. it's some other muay - could be muay chaiya, muay chaad cheurk, muay boran.... there have been ALOT of muay in thailand martial history
SevenStar Posted February 18, 2005 Posted February 18, 2005 here's some info about a few of the old styles: http://www.ancientmuaythai.com/styles/muay_thai.htm
Topic Posted February 18, 2005 Author Posted February 18, 2005 its called mae mai the style on muaythai.com, which is the ancient art and not the modern art form of muay thai. Its more of a martial art.
Topic Posted February 18, 2005 Author Posted February 18, 2005 O wow, i didint even realize that i posted this question, and now i just answereed it myself lol, how crazy is that, it means i have alot more knowledge now than i did when i started this thread in august of 04.
SevenStar Posted February 18, 2005 Posted February 18, 2005 I would very much consider muay thai a martial art, as well as a martial sport. The older stuff wasn't "more of a martial art", it was merely more traditional.
Topic Posted February 18, 2005 Author Posted February 18, 2005 for some reason, i really dont consider it a martial art, and thew reason why is because i trained in tkd for 4 yrs and i stopped it becasue it became boring to me and i ddint learn alot and i needed a hard core style, so i took up muay thai and i fell in love, now to me a martial art is having forms and doing like one step techniqques which i dont think are really effective on the street, muay thai to me is excellent, we make it reality, we dont try to block every punch that comers at us because w eknow it would b nearly impossible so i just dont liek to consider it a martial art. just my opiniopn
john888 Posted February 19, 2005 Posted February 19, 2005 I can confirm what you saw at http://www.mastersken.com is Muay Boran. It is sometimes referred to as Muay Chaiya as well. Muay Boran was used in the old days to defend Siam (Thailand) against its invaders. John Website: http://www.mastersken.comEmail: johnbarwell@mastersken.com
