Ritual and respect

Prajioud

Also written pra jiad or prajiad

What it means

The armbands worn during a fight, historically tied by a family member or trainer. Unlike the mongkhon they stay on for the bout.

Some gyms use colours to mark experience level, which is a modern and gym-specific practice rather than a national grading system.

If a camp gives you one, it means something to them. Do not treat it as a souvenir in front of the people who gave it to you.
