Thaing (Burmese)

Thaing (Burmese)

) were derived.

There were originally nine forms of thaing corresponding to Burma's major ethnic groups. These are the Burmese, Indian, Chinese, Chin, Kachin, Karen, Mon, Talaing and Shan. Although this multitude has been largely eroded today, there are still slight differences in how thaing is practiced in different regions. In Northern Shan areas for example, it is known as "Shan thaing." The traditional Burma nantwin (royal) style has been kept secret among the practitioners who choose their students very carefully.

There also is a technique known as "thaing byaungbyan" (reversed form of thaing) which became well-known among the public. U Maung Lay by his students produced many fine practitioners of this technique.
