Muay Thai Muay Thai is commonly referred to as the "science of eight limbs," and is Thailand's national sport. Muay Thai is derived from the hand-to-hand aspect of the ancient Siamese art known as, "Krabi Krabong;" and was once performed for the entertainment of the King of Siam. Muay Thai is known for its distinct rituals, incredible conditioning, devastating round (Thai) kicks and the merciless use of knees and elbows.

That's hard to say because every school is different... at the academy I train at back home, the first 6 months covers alot of the basics. Proper boxing drills, how to round kick properly, clinch and knee, footwork and stances. Not too much else for the first 6 months there.

as in any martial art it should be the basics. These are the foundation or building blocks....and a building with out a good foundation will usually fall.......
