Description
Unlike many sports, in Muay Thai you can excel regardless of your stature or body type. It's possible to find a personal Muay Thai style for you. Tall fighters, short fighters, strong fighters, fast fighters! With so many tools in the box, Muay Thai allows you to play to your strengths. Develop the Muay Thai skill to fight using a style that suits your body type and athletic abilities, and you become a unique puzzle to crack! I practiced several different martial arts before I found Muay Thai – Judo, Kyokushinkai karate, Taekwondo, Boxing, Kickboxing... But none of them afforded me the freedom to fight full force, using my whole body like Muay Thai did. Instead of being pigeonholed in a way that disadvantaged me, I could play the game how I wanted to. With so many tools in your (Muay Thai) box, it's possible to change your fight tactics to beat different opponents.  Explore, play, have fun with your training. The more you can find your own way, the more success you'll have!
