What are the benefits of learning Muay Thai?
Well, I am a believer that any Martial Art builds confidence, self esteem and possibly the most thought about benefit: Self Defense. And if you learn Muay Thai, you will be able to defend a lot of street fighters. Tell your parents you would like to be able to defend yourself if the situation arises, and the Martial Art would stay in the gym except for when that situation or a tournament came about. Another great benefit is, you might meet new friends and then if you got serious enough about Thai boxing you could use it as a gate way for other Martial Arts and join a large MMA organization. Good luck dude.
