Muay Thai is a popular martial arts form from Indochina. It has become a very popular sport in Thailand and other areas of the south pacific. Modern Muay Thai is primarly a ring sport, using gloves that are similar to western boxing gloves. Muay Thai is a common part of mixed martial arts training as well and many MMA trainers now use Muay Thai bags in their facilities.
The main idea behind Muay Thai is that you have eight different body spots that you can use to attack an opponent. Four of these spots are nothing more than a collection of savage hits below the elbow and knee, but four other spots account for the hands and the feet.
