As a TKD student i should tell u that u will never be able to do anything by just asking questions on the internet about muay thai kick boxing. U will need a qualified instructor. It does not matter what martial art form u know. All that matters is that u have confidence in yourself. Find a dojo that is close to where u live and sign up if u are interested. Srry that i cannot answer about muay thai but remember u must find an insrutor if u wish to become a martial artist.
does it really matter a kick is a kick a punch is a punch all that matters is timing just do whatever on you bag or find an alternate way of fighting other than mauy thai its not the end of the world if you do not train in your desired way anyone is better than none so try anything you just need a good instructor
You can’t learn without proper instruction, if you learn the techniques the wrong way it could do more harm than good.
I’d suggest a similar martial art of combat system (in a gym), here are some suggestions:
Sanshou, boxing, kickboxing, kyokushin karate.
good luck!
I agree with the others about finding a gym. There are many videos and books on Muay Thai and may give you a foundation, but it must be supplemented with proper instruction. If there are no gyms nearby, try finding a Muay Thai seminar within reasonable distance.
However, I would like to clear up that the punching and kicking techniques are fairly unique to Muay Thai (although San Shou does come close). The roundhouse kick especially is much different (and more effective in my opinion) than you will find in American Kickboxing, karate, TKD, etc.
