TLDR : Answer Summary

The way we do it (muaythaifever.com ) is we sell a 6 month course of 1 lesson a week for 6 months. We write it up so it's a weekly class. But once you have the visa its flexible

Can do 2 class a week for 3 months or just do them all in a month. I think the Thai Government wants people to travel nit stay I one place and in one gym

There is no way around that. It’s an enrolment letter you get from the gym.

Anonymous participant Obviously the letter would not be "random." Rather it would confirm that you have paid for a six-month membership.

yes. Qualifications just entail being a registered business for Muay Thai gym/school etc. Needs to prove your enrolled etc, I’m not expert but I know a few gym owners who have been successful with the documents for people applying for dtv

A six-month payment is sufficient justification for DTV. Whether you want to go to the gym or get a DTV visa depends on you. Just for the gym, it's better to choose a TR visa. 🥰
