Should I apply for the DTV visa using my business documents or through a Muay Thai school with Compass?

Soft power might have a higher chance of approval but many people think it’s the category more likely to face restrictions or proof of ongoing enrollment down the road to get the full 5 years. So it could end up being a more costly option. I would try the workation route and go through an embassy like Indonesia, Vietnam or Laos. Laos required and interview which can actually help you explain your circumstances, so might give you a better chance of approval.
