Muay Chaiya is taught differently from modern muay thai, with more emphasis on technique and form instead of the concentration on pure body conditioning (although this is important for any serious fighters). The classes include challenging exercises that help the student practice key movements that are used within the style.
Muay Chaiya can be learnt by people of all ages, both men and women, for exercise, self-defense and competitive fighting.
It is a striking style, therefore most of the moves involve strikes from various weapons of the body. These include:
Fists
Elbows
Knees
Shin/Feet
