# Muay Thai > The eight limbs, the thirty named techniques, and 527 places to train on the map Made by hongdam.net, a bilingual web studio in Chiang Rai. 129 records, bilingual English and Thai, every claim tiered and sourced. Built 2026-09-19 21:25. ## Findings - The thirty named techniques of the muay thai curriculum: 29 of 30 are named after a picture rather than a movement, and 14 name a figure from the Ramakien or its Hindu antecedents. Counted off Thai Wikipedia at revision 13177866; the classification is this project's and the full table is printed at /names/. - OpenStreetMap holds 527 places to train muay thai in 58 countries. 252 of them were found only by name: the sport's own tag, sport=muay_thai, is used fewer than fifty times worldwide. A published figure puts overseas gyms above 3,800, so the map is a floor. - Wikidata records 1186 people as Thai boxers. 248 are Thai and 5 of those are women. That is a measurement of who gets written about, not of who fights. ## Pages - [Muay Thai](https://motdang.net/muay-thai/) - [Eight limbs](https://motdang.net/muay-thai/limbs/) - [The names](https://motdang.net/muay-thai/names/) - [Schools](https://motdang.net/muay-thai/schools/) - [Ceremony](https://motdang.net/muay-thai/ceremony/) - [Watching](https://motdang.net/muay-thai/watch/) - [Training](https://motdang.net/muay-thai/training/) - [History](https://motdang.net/muay-thai/history/) - [Gyms](https://motdang.net/muay-thai/gyms/) - [People](https://motdang.net/muay-thai/people/) - [Numbers](https://motdang.net/muay-thai/numbers/) - [Words](https://motdang.net/muay-thai/words/) - [Everything](https://motdang.net/muay-thai/all/) - [How this was made](https://motdang.net/muay-thai/about/) - [API](https://motdang.net/muay-thai/api/) ## Data - [nodes.json](https://motdang.net/muay-thai/api/nodes.json) — every record - [curriculum.json](https://motdang.net/muay-thai/api/curriculum.json) — the thirty names - [gyms.json](https://motdang.net/muay-thai/api/gyms.json) — the harvest, with its queries - [roster.json](https://motdang.net/muay-thai/api/roster.json) — the Wikidata census - [nodes.jsonl](https://motdang.net/muay-thai/nodes.jsonl) · [nodes.csv](https://motdang.net/muay-thai/nodes.csv) ## Licence Records CC BY 4.0.
