Nina Scheuher Nina Scheucher Austria
I fell in love with muaythai from the start, I love the feeling of being in the ring. I train almost every day, I think about it every day - it's my life.
Right now I am fighting as much as I can, and I hope to keep going. The elbow is my favourite move, you can't do that in other sports. I love also the Wai Kru, the mongkhon - muaythai is not only a sport, it's a spirit. You live it, so the tradition is part of the whole package.
In Austria we are trying more now to encourage more women in muaythai - we are different to the guys a little so we need different ideas. It's not a man's sport but we need different ways to train.
