About Muay Thai Sangha

Muay Thai Sangha is a modern and traditional training school founded in Thailand by Pedro Solana. It combines the techniques of ancient Muay Boran, Krabi Krabong (weapon fighting) and meditation. It places great emphasis on fluidity, escapes from the line of attack and the ability to adapt to the opponent without unnecessary muscle tension.
