Authentic Muay Boran and Muay Thai Training

The Hanuman Thayan is a deadly ancient strike from Muay Boran, inspired by the powerful Lord Hanuman. Here, I demonstrate the technique, which involves a prayerful start before unleashing a devastating attack. This is the kind of knowledge passed down from masters, not found on the internet.

Training is hands-on. I am right there with my students, holding the pads, correcting their form, and pushing them to strike with full power. Here, a student practices a combination of punches and elbows, learning the proper timing and distance.

To be a true teacher, you must first be a humble student. This was a moment of great honor for me, receiving blessings from the legendary Grand Master Sagat Petchyindee at a temple in Ayutthaya. This connection to the masters in Thailand is what keeps my teaching authentic.

The flying knee, or 'Khao Loi', is a powerful and explosive technique used to surprise an opponent. I teach my students how to generate the necessary power and timing to execute this move effectively in a real fight situation. Chalo!

I often speak with students, not just about techniques, but about the mindset of a martial artist. The most important thing is commitment, first to yourself. This discipline is the foundation of everything we do in Muay Boran.

This was a proud day. I was formally awarded the Silver Mongkol for Khan 14 by the Senior Grand Masters in Thailand. This recognition is not just for me, but for the authentic Muay Thai and Muay Boran we preserve and teach.

Strength comes from tradition. Here, we use the 'Mugdar', or Indian club, for conditioning. This ancient tool builds powerful shoulders, a strong grip, and the core stability needed for devastating strikes.
