"Soccer mom syndrome, that is what it is called when an art gets so popular that soccer moms are doing it. When that happens it gets watered down to make lots of money by being easy and appealing to the average person. Just you wait, in 20 years when Muay Thai's popularity in North America grows it will also get soccer mom syndrome... hell I've already seen it start happening."
Today my mom told me she was going to the YMCA to work out. Then I asked her what she was going to do and said Thai Boxing.

I asked her what this "thai boxing" was and she basically described it as tae bo.

It is a sad day for Muay thai!
