Is a MT camp for me?

Paco · 08-29-2006, 09:30 AM

I have had a couple of friends go off to train in Thailand. I want to know if it's worth going over there if you're not training MT exclusively or you're not interested in becoming a kru or pro fighter.
I trained MT from 1990-1992, since then, did some BJJ and FMA. Right now, my conditioning is not what it used to be. Still, MT is a great workout and training in Thailand beats going to Disney. Any thoughts? How long should I stay? What if you're married? What is there to do for fun (besides working out)?

I think whether you should go to Thailand or not is not an issue, as long as you can find the Kru that can teach you the original of MT, you can learn anywhere, for example, there are a lot of MT legend Thai boxers operate camps in the US and I think they are delivering quality training as well as camps in Thailand do.

Come to Thailand, bring your girlfriend you will love it. Yes there are good Thai trainers overseas but you will ahve a better experience in Thailand, plenty of other stuff to do all very cheap. Islands are beautiful and Chiang Mai not to be missed. Chay-yai Gym in Chiang Mai very friendly and great training www.muaythaicamps.com Stay in Top North Hotel for 18 US a night in centre with swimming pool. All good.
