LFGSS Muay Thai?

Like the ability to kick high. It also requires gloves.
Many things which actually make it unrealistic as a self defense method and excludes people from a potentially good little club idea.

muay thai is a martial art that requires dedication and training. the high kicking comes with time; some people have to stretch out for years before you can kick at head level, some can do it right away.

and here's a tip: don't use gloves when street fighting.

muay thai's an excellent self-defense martial art. it's absolutely lethal. and a lot of fun.

you cannot learn muay thai without gloves and pads though. you have to learn how to punch/kick with force and to connect at the right time, and that's something only padwork can do.
