Ever wondered how to honor the roots of Muay Thai as someone who loves Muay Thai? Silvia from Chicago did, and she asked an amazing and thought-provoking question we could all benefit to learn from.
In this video, pro fighter Angela Chang, who has been living in Thailand since 2016, gets into the cultural nuances and traditions that make Muay Thai so special. She leverages her experience and insights to sound her opinions. From understanding the significance of the Wai Kru to respecting Thai customs in the gym, let's explore the ways you can show respect for this incredible martial art. We'll also discuss the importance of cultural sensitivity and the potential pitfalls of cultural appropriation.
