VinnieDaChin Posted February 10, 2005 Share Posted February 10, 2005 well... if you read around youll probably get an idea. its a sport and a martial art- think boxing with kicking (with the shin) as well as elbows (not allowed everywhere) and knees. it happens to be quite popular because its kicks, knees and elbows are basically the hardest hitting of all martial arts.

kzshin Posted February 14, 2005 Share Posted February 14, 2005 go watch a movie call Ong Bak, then you can see many real Muay Thai moves. The movie was released last friday in US, and was released in both Asia and Europe last year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SevenStar Posted February 14, 2005 Share Posted February 14, 2005 I saw ong bak a few months ago - I haven't seen the US version yet though. GREAT action. I don't think alot of it will apply to a muay thai class though. Alot of the stuff in it is the older muay, maybe muay boran or muay chaad cheurk or something...it's referred to as ancient muay thai, but technically, it's not the same thing.
