Thai Martial Arts

This dance not only demonstrates the swords-manship and fighting prowess of the performers, but is also a dance of respect performed for the master swordsman. Thus, it is a Wai Khru dance, which means a dance for paying respect to the teacher (Khru, or Guru), or in this case, the swordsmaster. The dance shows the technique of using Thai weapons such as swords, dual sticks, and stuff.
