Kru Chart

Teacher Somchart, or Kru Chart, is a long-time Muay Thai instructor at Sor.Dechapant Muay Thai School in Chatuchak, Bangkok, where he has spent many years teaching both Thai and international students on a daily basis. His experience comes from real gym work, not short courses or seminar teaching, and his role involves guiding beginners through their first sessions as well as supporting long-term students who train consistently in Thailand.

In the gym, his priority is always the same: strong fundamentals, correct technique, and safety. He works closely with students to correct posture, balance, and basic movement before pushing intensity. This approach helps reduce injuries and builds a solid base for students who may be training twice a day or staying in Thailand for extended periods. Many of the students he teaches are first-time visitors to Thailand, unfamiliar with local gym culture, training structure, and expectations.

As a contributor on Muay Thai Visa Thailand (MTVT), Teacher Somchart shares practical knowledge drawn directly from everyday training at the gym. MTVT is the international enrollment and visa-support portal connected to Sor.Dechapant Muay Thai School, a Ministry of Education–licensed institution (License สช.กร. 00025/2568) that supports government-recognized Muay Thai study pathways, including long-stay Destination Thailand Visa (DTV) and Education Visa (ED) programs. His writing reflects how Muay Thai training actually works in practice, not how it is often presented in marketing or short online guides.

His articles focus on what new students really need to know before starting training in Thailand: how sessions are structured, how to pace themselves, common mistakes beginners make, and how to train consistently without overtraining or unnecessary injuries. He avoids exaggerated claims and instead explains things clearly, using examples he sees every week in the gym.

Teacher Somchart’s goal is to help readers feel prepared and confident before they arrive in Thailand. By sharing honest, experience-based guidance, he aims to reduce confusion, set realistic expectations, and help students get more value from their training from the very first week.
