Requirements to teach Muay Thai?
Depending on where you live, there are no requirements or qualifications needed to teach Muay Thai.
Most countries only require liability insurance.
What requirements do you think there should be? Should the instructor have a fight record? Should they be a 10th khan in Muay Thai? Should they be a Black Belt in any Martial Art? Should they have a background in group fitness or physical fitness?

No, you really don't need any credentials to teach any type of martial arts. However, people who go to you will drop out if you're a crappy teacher. They will write reviews about your teachings and critique your methods and if you're any good. So in a sense it's good to at least know what you're talking about.

the two. that is critical to have the flexibility to combat the place ever the combat would pass in the experience that your a muay thai guy this is super if the combat remains status, yet say your scuffling with a wrestler who will take you down, in muay thai there is not any coaching out of your decrease back or any floor scuffling with. comparable with BJJ in the experience that your a grappler and your scuffling with a muay thai guy with stable takedown protection he's going to tension you into marvelous with him, considering the fact which you will no longer have the flexibility to take him all the way down to apply your Brazilian jiu jitsu (BJJ). so that is important to combine coaching in the two a form of martial arts to have an efficient scuffling with form.

Kick boxing in the west is a sport which anyone can open a school. Being a sport without rank it can be taught by anyone. This is very different in Thialand I heard you need to show that you and your students have competed. Most schools there make money of the wins of their students.

I reckon they should be the black belt equivalent in their art and hold the same qualifications as a PT.
