About Muay Thai Grading & Certification
What This Is
This grading and certification isn’t a casual badge - it’s a real recognition of everything you’ve put into Muay Thai and Muay Boran. When you pass, you get an official certificate signed by the Kru Muaythai Association (KMA) in Bangkok. That’s not just paper, it’s proof of your level and effort, no matter where you go.
How We Do It
- Certification follows strict KMA Muay Thai certification standards
- Your level (Khan) gets assessed on skills, knowledge, and fighting application
- The certificate comes straight from KMA HQ, not printed in-house
- We use the 10-level Khan system, just like they do in Thailand

My Story
People call me Coach or Kru, but Anna is what I cherish most. Thunder Martial Arts in Vidyaranyapura feels more like home than a gym. We’re all sweat, heart, and Kannada pride here. Never give up – that’s my mantra. Medals? Yeah, we’ve got plenty, from Rajyotsava Cup to WAKO tournaments. But honestly, watching someone’s confidence bloom, seeing their hand raised after a tough fight, that’s the real win. Kannadave Satya, Kannadave Nitya. We fight with that spirit.
