Muay Thai, also known as Thai boxing or Thai kickboxing, is a martial art originally from Thailand.

Traditional Muay Thai has a rich history in Thailand as a martial art used for sport and by the military. The military style of Muay Thai is called Lerdrit which is slightly different from the original art and uses kicks and punches in a ring and with gloves similar to those used in boxing. Muay Thai is also known as 'The Science of Eight Limbs' as the hands, feet, elbows and knees are all used extensively in this art.
