Muay Thai

Thai boxing (Muay Thai) course applied by EMAC

Muay Thai was actually developed from fighting in the battlefield. (Muay Thai is a martial art with origins in the ancient battlefield tactics of the Siamese or Thai army)

It is a powerful science, providing with a lot of techniques using bare hands.

However, since Muay Thai was developed to be a sport, some of its dangerous techniques have to be eliminated and controlled by the rule and arbiter, aiming for winning in game only. Muay Thai course of EMAC is an applied course. It is combining on-stage Muay Thai, together with other style of self-defense, for example; “submission grappling and ground fight defense”, which we cannot experience from traditional Muay Thai due to the rule that does not allow for flinging, locking or even sweeping the other’ legs The course includes techniques and knowledges of how to wrap hand, Wai Kru dance (in which each contestant pays homage to his teachers) as well as how to use the body weapons for fundamental self-defenses efficiently i.e. punches, crushing elbow strikes, lethal kicks and artful knee strike.In addition, EMAC also includes some necessary techniques, applied from other kind of martial art in order to streamline the self-defense skill of students such as Escape from different holdings. Being allowed practicing with classmates, students will understand much better about how to keep the good distance in addition to know how to attack, protect or reflect in more effective way.  Likewise, the additional tricks for ground fighting will be included in the course.
