Dragon Leg Muay Thai

SMOKER  June 4^th 2005

 

 

On Saturday June 4^th 2005 the Warrior Way Martial Arts Academy held it's first Muay Thai amateur fight night (also known as a SMOKER). This event was the highlight of a fantastic weekend of Muay Thai hands-on training. Warrior Way was fortunate to host a training seminar featuring 4 legendary Muay Thai instructors and former fighters.

 

Students and fighters had the opportunity to train with these legends of Muay Thai and to get personal instruction from four masters, all during a two day seminar. This was a once in a lifetime event.

 

Special congratulations to the Sit-Dragon Leg team . Their team clearly won the majority of matches and truly stood out in this first ever Warrior Way Dragon Leg Smoker. Matee Jedeepitak is the Kru (master instructor) for both the "Warrior Way Dragon Leg" team and the "Sit-Dragon Leg" schools.

 

While the main focus of the weekend was to promote Muay Thai and the martial arts. The fights were judged and trophies given out to the winners. There were 6 Muay Thai fights, and 1 MMA grappling demonstration. The Muay Thai fighters used the modified Muay Thai rules (for amateurs). This means the following modifications to traditional Muay Thai. No elbow strikes are allowed. No knee strikes to the head. Shin Guards must be worn. Head gear must be worn (in addition to gloves and groin protection).

We were extremely lucky to have four legendary fighters here in one spot to train us.

•  Matee Jedeepitak

•  Saekson Janjira

•  Kansak Sor. Pleonchit

•  Pongsan Ekyotin

We would also like to thank Harvy, Angelo and the entire team at Warrior Way for all their hard work.
