Ajarn Chai's Muay Thai Seminar - Matt Says

"My favourite part of the Seminar for me was the section that focussed on grappling. This side of Muay Thai is overlooked by potential students when considering Muay Thai as they seem to focus on the hand and leg techniques that are involved. Learning some basic grappling principles proved very interesting as well as enjoyable. In the future, I will be able to incorporate these principles into my training to make me a more rounded Martial Artist.

An important concept that was taught in the Seminar was that of the psychology of teaching. For anyone that has considered teaching any disciple, this section was especially useful as it highlighted the different methods that knowledge can be transferred to students and the situations that each one is applicable in.

The Seminar made me much more interested in Muay Thai because Ajarn Chai focused on the technical aspects involved in the execution of each technique.

Ajarn Chai’s Seminar is a unique opportunity that Monash University Kickboxing Club students have to train with Master who is internationally recognised and who possesses a wealth of knowledge that has been accumulated through a life long involvement with Muay Thai."
