Exploring the Art of Kickboxing, Muay Thai, and San Da
Did you know that the origins of many modern kickboxing and grappling styles trace back to ancient Chinese martial arts practiced for thousands of years? San Da—also known as Sanshou, Chinese Boxing, or Chinese Kickboxing—incorporates many of the techniques seen in today’s professional mixed martial arts. With its combination of powerful strikes, clinches, and throws, San Da is often compared to a blend of Muay Thai and Judo, making it one of the earliest forms of mixed martial arts.
