Can I travel around Thailand while enrolled in a 6-month boxing class in Chiang Mai for a DTV visa?
1. If I sign up for boxing in Chiang Mai for DTV 6 months lessons, do I have to stay in Chiang Mai or can I move around Thailand a bit for exploring? Also do I need to have a new contract for language or boxing every 6 months to renew at 180 days?
Answer summary
You can freely explore Thailand while enrolled in DTV boxing lessons in Chiang Mai. However, to renew your stay every 180 days, you must present a new contract, although it's not required to show this contract upon re-entry after a border visit. The immigration officer may request proof of activity.

You are free to explore Thailand as you wish. To renew your stay at immigration you need to present a new contract. There is no requirement to voluntarily show a contract upon arrival from a border hop. The airport IO can ask to see evidence of activity though
