The cultural aspects of Muaythai play an important role in the International Federation of Muaythai Associations (IFMA), especially in grassroots development. As an IOC-recognized organization, IFMA prides itself on cultural and sporting exchange. Since 2016, Wai Kru and Mai Muay have been included as medal disciplines.
For nearly a decade, the IFMA Cultural Commission has developed clear rules and regulations for the development and competition of Wai Kru and Mai Muay. This year, 62 countries sent teams to the competition, which was held over five days. The final was televised live around the world.
