Why do the Thais do this?
Why can’t they do it like us in the West?
Why does my trainer think I’m lazy?
Ever heard western Muay Thai fighters ask these questions over and over again?
I have and it annoyed me so much I decided to write a book about it.
The reason why most people don’t understand the Muay Thai culture is because they don’t take the time to learn about it.
There is a lot more to it than the fight itself.
But people miss out on this because of the language barrier and the fact that some things are only noticeable if you know about it.
Or maybe they care more about other things than the culture over here.
You’re shooting yourself in the foot by not understanding Thai culture.
Muay Thai is more than a sport here. It’s a culture that has been around for a long time.
We as Westeners don’t grow up in this kind of culture and get thrown in the deep- end.
This leads to people having bad experiences that could have been avoided from the start.
If only they had a guide like this.
Well here it is, after living for 3 years in Thailand I have a better understanding because I chose to actually learn about the culture.
This experience has made sure I could put together this e-book.
In this e-book you will get
- general tips for people who come over the first time
- tips on how to remain consistent
- how to find the right gym
- gyms you should avoid
- privates you should consider
- Thai culture in gyms/common problems for Westeners
- The hierarchy in gyms and how to elevate yourself
- The different kinds of padwork and the reason behind them
- A look at the fight scene and what to expect
- Why being tired in a fight is frowned upon
- Why a guy once got slapped in a fight in between rounds by his coach
- extra resources to supplement your training
- and much more….
