MUAY THAI FIGHT

Muay Thai isn't just about learning how to fight. The challenge is to travel to Thailand, train seriously in Muay Thai, and step into the ring for a real fight.

​

I've trained Muay Thai before, but only for about a month. I had to stop after suffering a stroke, which temporarily left me paralyzed down the entire left side of my body. I never got the chance to take my training any further, and that's part of what makes this challenge personal. I want to return to something I never got the chance to finish — this time taking it all the way from training to a real fight in Thailand.

​

I want to put myself in that situation and find out how I respond to fear, pressure, and discomfort when walking away is no longer the easy option.
