TLDR : Answer Summary

Yes, it is true that you can study Muay Thai on an Education Visa (ED Visa) in Thailand for a duration of 3 months, which can be renewable up to 12 months. Several Muay Thai gyms in Phuket, such as the American Kickboxing Academy and Tiger Muay Thai, offer programs that qualify for this visa. Additionally, individuals seeking to explore options outside of Phuket can inquire at immigration offices or perform a quick online search to find suitable gyms and courses.

A quick Google search of Thai courses in Thailand will bring up your options. It's not hard to find.

What about gyms outside of Phuket? Can you go to immigration and ask for any forms that you could possibly fill out with a specific muy thai gym you are enrolled with?
