Does the “Little Thai-gers” Muay Thai Program have a belt ranking system?
There is no universally recognized belt ranking system in Muay Thai. In Muay Thai there is a saying, “The belt is in the ring!” However, ranking systems serve as an important goal setting standard and benchmark for a student’s ability. Such a standard is important to help the student keep track of his or her progress and reward them for their abilities and efforts. For this reason, it is common to find private ranking systems within Muay Thai schools. There are gyms throughout the world that have their own “in-school” ranking systems, and these schools commonly use colored arm bands called “prajioud” to designate their skill level.
