- Women have participated in kickboxing since the 1960s in Thailand. But there has been a superstition and prejudice women have often being prevented from participating in the major tournaments in Thailand. The World’s Muay Thai Angels is one of the first organisations to be a place for women to participate in and the first tournament was won by Chommanee Sor Taehiran. Women's kickboxing in Australia has a small but devoted following. In the 1970s women in the United States took up kickboxing as they were prevented from taking part in women's boxing. In the UK kickboxing has a growing following according to the WMC. In May 2016 the kickboxing organisation Glory announced the creation of a women's division built around Tiffany van Soest. In 2021 the Lumpinee Boxing Stadium finally allowed women to compete in Muay Thai. (en)
