I've been training for about 5 months now. I just posted one of my videos from a couple of months back in another thread in here. I'll test for my 4th level in about a month. I'm halfway there. I love it and I'm stationed in S Korea right now so I train 5 days a week. Keeps me out of trouble

I didn't start until I was 30. Didn't realize how bad of shape I was in until the first day. Thought I was gonna die.

There's no official grading in Muay Thai....only a fight record. The head bands and arm bands are worn before the fight during the traditional 'wai kru,' which is a dance that is performed before the start of each bought by the fighters. It dates back hundreds of years to a war between Thailand and Burma. Check out www.tigermuaythai.com

Thailand's doing it's best to bring Muay Thai and MMA together.

I love the power you feel in the clinch

but if I were to go up against anderson silva and I was able to clinch him first, im sure id still get my ass tuned.

no belts in thai boxing

i started on tuesday at an mma gym near me.
we did an hours boxing, then an hours muay thai.
we drilled thai low kicks to the thigh using strike shields, my legs are still sore now (sat) and still quite bruised.
the kicks didnt hurt that bad at the time, i think my sparring partner will be sorer than me anyway ;p
