FIGHTER SPOTLIGHT: Yolanda Schmidt

The face of a fighter comes in many forms, and is something nobody can ever categorize or make pre-judgments about accurately. Yolanda Schmidt, the most recent winner of the Muay Thai Angels tournament, proves just that. “The stereotype that I am not feminine based on the sport I partake in, was once one of my biggest struggles. I constantly had to justify why I enjoyed such a ‘violent’ sport when I am such a happy, smiley and bubbly person,” says the world champion.

ABOUT US

Muay Ying is the first platform to focus on fighters that don’t get the attention they deserve, namely women fighters. Founded in 2016, this site was born out of frustration when finding inclusive and high quality news about professional fighters.

In addition to news and fight updates, Muay Ying provides information on training in Thailand, advice on how to prepare and sustain yourself during your trip, among many other topics. If there’s a topic you’d like to read more about, please don’t hesitate to let us know.

Muay Ying also has chats with notable members in the Muay Thai community in Podcast form. You can find us on your favorite Podcast platform.

WHAT IS MUAY THAI?

มวยไทย
Thai boxing
The art of eight limbs

No matter what you call it, this sport has changed lives.

Driven by economical means in Thailand, children from poorer regions of the country start training and fighting to help support their families.

This sport with humble beginnings has grown exponentially all over the world. Although most non-Thais do not fight as an economical means, their passion for the sport has helped pave the way for Muay Thai to become profitable on the international scene.
