I have been training in Muay thai for 6 months and regular kickboxing for kickboxing 6 months before that i found that it was best to get my basics down pat (punches and kicks) so i started with kikboxing training and conditioning my body hard. Then i went to competition. I placed second in one of mike miles kickboxing tournament. After that my trainer (kim morris, curent featherweight wka champ in canada) said i should start in muay thai. Boy am i glad i learned kikboxing first because the knees to the body were almost unbearable compared to kicks. Clinchwork was hard work to. I recommend kickboxing and then muay thai. Muay thai is however more effective on the street then kickboxing if you adapt to it. it is a standup marshal art so the key is to strike hard but with technique and speed. This initial strike and or combo must be harmful enough to take someone down and although traditionally it would have been a lethal one in modern day you want to harm them not mame them.
