Master Sken's message:

I have great concern for muay Thai's future. I want muay Thai recognised by the public and the media as a proper sport, worthy of respect. If it is badly presented, it reflects badly on Thailand and Thai people.
I want people to see the results of quality training and instruction. Not just in competitions, but also when used for fitness and self-defence.
Muay Thai is not about violence. It is about calmness, control, discipline and positive attitude. Muay Thai is not about survival in the boxing ring - it is survival in life.
– Master Sken
