The fundamental values of Muaythai are built on 5 important pillars, Respect, Honour, Tradition, Fair-play and Excellence. The IFMA Organisation is based on a strict framework and principle that ensures non-discrimination and inclusion, safety and fairness of each family member, especially the athletes on the basis of gender identity and sexual characteristics. Honour This requires the involvement of all Muaythai stakeholders: to show grace as much in defeat as we do in victory. Tradition The fostering of Muaythai’s historical roots and all cultural aspects and customs inherent in the sport from its ancient origins. Respect The practice by all IFMA stakeholders of a respectful involvement regardless of race, age, gender, sexual orientation, disability or nationality. Excellence Promoting the highest levels of achievement in competition, coaching, and officiating. Fair Play The provision of a level playing field for competition, encouraging sportsmanship, efficiency, and transparency in the operations of IFMA, as well as strict adherence to the World Anti-Doping Code. Muaythai practitioners should rather fail in honour than win in dishonesty. Fair play must be demonstrated between the athletes through the absence of doping; referees and judges must ensure that the true victor’s hand will be raised; sport integrity and the ethical behaviour must remain the centre of our sport.
