Master Roshi: "Always remember these words: Work hard! Study well! And eat and sleep plenty. That is the way! We must master the art of peace in addition to the art of war!"
You’ve seen his punishing padwork with his students in the viral videos on social media. You’ve gawked at the bold display of 'sak yant' tattoos across his chest and back, and feel intimidated.
As scary as he may look in the ring, Ajarn Gae is a dedicated Muay Thai trainer who cares about the improvement of the fighters under his charge.
In this interview, you get to see a side of Ajarn Gae that you may not have seen before. He shares intimate stories of his life, and talks about the disappointment of his shattered childhood dreams that turned him into monkhood for 10 years.
One thing that comes through is that Ajarn Gae absolutely LOVES Muay Thai. He loved fighting, he loves teaching it, he wants to make his students strong. When his students fight in the ring, he says, “my heart fight together.”
Will you be his next Goku and Krillin?...

You can see the fire and passion in his eyes when he talks about Muay Thai. Struggles to express himself in his limited English, but the message he gets across is no less poignant. Really, if you don’t do what you love, life hasn’t much meaning.
The meaning of life isn't to work. It's to grow in consciousness. Work has nothing to do with it.
PhilosophyOfPolitics - the man was a Buddhist monk for 10 years, I don’t think he’ll disagree.
I think he expressed himself quite well.
Just what i was about to say, his eyes birghten up when talks about his love:)
@@philosophyofpolitics4504 Work being the meaning of life is a painfully Protestant Christian view of the world anyway.
my lord i wish this man all the blessings i never seen such heart im speechless
truly a great
so true!
If you did not get a tear listening to him speak, one needs to look at themself a little harder. This is a truly selfless person, and I wish the world for Gae. One of a kind human being.
These videos deserve millions of views...

Unofficial Les Twins 🙏🙏
In due time young Padawon
Respect 🙌
@@LawrenceKenshin Hello,what's the name of Master Roshi's muay thai gym in thailand and the address?
You should let him speak in Thai and then translate his side of the story to English.
He wanted to speak in English
Haaaaaa
AGREE
What s wrong? People get what he said.
Well, he can speak Lao too ,since he’s Lao ethnic.
It is okay my child. Just let him speak his message how he may please.
If you ever feel doubt or scared to go to new places with foreign language, i want you to remember this video.
We're able to understand him just fine.
Because there's subtitles
Its not hard to understand.
But we don't know how accurate it is
It hurts so much in the heart when Professor Gae speaks of the lack of having gone to the end and conquered his dream of being a champion, every word is loaded with much sadness, otherwise it becomes evident how he stands along with his fighters such as " he fights "their struggle. We get older and become more sensitive and empathic with the next.
Nicely written
Never saw a man who is so at peace with himself and at the same time can beat the sh*t out of you in a very violent way..
haha aint that the truth
“I want people strong, fight not easy. Fight not lie”
Man, my coach had the same mentality and saying. This makes me respect both trainer Gae and my coach 1000x more
I see Abdulmanap Nurmagomedov in him. My opinion, no hate ✌
I felt that to the core even though I don’t do Muay Thai...
He is so humble person and great master LOVE & RESPECT 🙏
truth!!
Disagree. He's rude, cocky and a disgrace to the discipline
@@pauls5375 first thing he is in combat sports so he is not gonna act like your mother
@@belerickivan7958 totally agree.
@@pauls5375you know, bad fighter because of bad trainer. He punching, he kicking for reason. I think he is a RARE/good trainer. What did you expect? Soft trainer for doll fighter?
Humble person....
The last part made me feel so warm when he talks abt he wanted to hv a farm and stay comfortably outside of the city.
A simple lifestyle that all he wants....it reminds me of Buakaw's village.....no matter how famous are you....you nvr forget where you came from.
When you look up the words 'pure passion' in the dictionary, you'll see Master Roshi's pic next to it
haha yes
Wow he wasnt joking
after hearing his story and seeing just how humble he is is a real wake up call. he has so much integrity! what an inspiration.
This video should be something that everyone should watch before they consider becoming a fighter. This video is inspiring and really makes me want to train to my full potential.
it really is inspiring. i wanted to cry! haha
@@LawrenceKenshin I did cry. as a man who had to stop all training young, this brought back the sweet hurt.
@@shuyungsum i would prefer Jet Kuan do, or Mix Marshall Artts, Thai Boxing is nice but its very Basic, a lot of training and tough ness but it does not have a lot of moves.
Before they consider being a parent!
lovenlightman lol... go educate yourself before you speak again.
My first time crying watching a Muay Thai video. Thank you 🙏🏼
Sangye Dorje 💪
yeah man i cried too, dont even know why :)
Me too T_T
♥️
True passion, true beauty, true art. I cried too. I'm so proud and honored to study the same art as this man.
"I see"
"I love"
"I dream"
"I fight"
Yeah... Just yeah. Nothing else needed.
good words
This is the true spirit of martial arts. It's so much more than a fight. It's about love... of the sport, the people, the work, the community it creates. Seeing how much he loves MT makes me love it even more. Many thanks to trainer Gae!
🙏🙏
He may not have been able to become a fighting legend, but he has become a legend in his own right.
“I fight only me..clean my heart”..tremendous respect ajarn gae..👊🏻💪🏻🙏🏻
This touched my heart. 😭 It made me want to conquer the world though. Great insight on this wonderful man. I always wondered what his mentality was seeing just how hard he pushed his students. You can tell he cares with all his soul.
Interesting how the poor are some of the most generous people in the world. Ironic.
Wishful thinking.
Where does that put you?
The reason is : When kid is born in wealthy family if it has to inherit big money it has responsibility to keep it no matter what ..even to produce a war to keep the goods .... So the rich kid inherit a baggage ... to stay rich ... And by default their mind set is different. When you come from nothing you FILL the process of earning anything, as well as the emotions that goes with it.
You're mistaken. He's not poor, he's rich. All you have to do is look a lot closer and pay attention to details in the background of this man's gym. Diligent hands make a many wealthy, and an idle man's hands will make him poor.
Yeah homeless people will give you shirt off their backs lol but rich man wont part with anything
"when you defeat yourself, the only thing left was peace" that`s will make you live longer and happier, especially live with animals and natural.
That for me was the best part of the video.
Teared me up for real. I used to breakdance hardcore for 6yrs and have already quit for many years now. I remember that sort of determination and drive. Its all gone now. I cant even do 90% of my moves anymore, but the lessons stay in me.

IF you do come back to that someday (again, IF), you won't be doing it as beginner, but as someone with experience

Honestly, what an incredible man.
I put my son into his gym if it near my home. The closest MartialArt from my house is Karate about 4km,and then BJJ/Muay Thai about 30km and Judo about 45km. 30km in here is about 1-2 hours driving.
Word
DB Cooper's MoneyBags me too man 🙇🏻♂️
I eat plenty of pussy, does that count?
Thank you very much for the video! So inspiring and sad at the same time...
I have started muay thai only 6 months ago and I just fell in love with it. I have started training twice a week and hell it was hard at first (after a decade of heavy drinking and smoking) but now I can go train 5 times a week and mostly after work (10/11 hours a day of physical work) and I can really feel that my body can take it. I used to have a back, hip and shoulder pain but this is all gone now. I have gained so much flexibility, strength and cardio. Muay thai is special to me as I have never felt like this before. I simply can't imagine my life without it now and I would love to be trained by such a man "one day". Practising and getting hurt, learning from others and yourself, observing different techniques and try to get better by owning your body and then you "feel it without thinking" ooooh yeah you know what I'm talking about!!! This is a lifetime journey that I am willing to embrace. I am 27 years old and even though I wish I had started at a younger age, it is never too late to start. I have never been this happy before and to me this is what it's all about, I want to do things that make me happy and live my life to the fullest.
"Fight No Lie". Truer words never spoken. This man is a treasure. I would be honored to shake your hand sir. Honored.
Guy had his career end in the stadium he dreamed about competing in as a kid.
Almost made me cry in the middle of a crowded restaurant, thanks kenshin.
Yea u can see it in his eyes... he loves fighting so much
same
Dude why going into a restaurant and chill on your phone?
@@MIKERTAS Am I supposed to stare at my plate when I eat alone like some psychopath?
Zankaru sad story
I don’t see how anyone can dislike a man telling you his struggles in life ??it don’t make sense nothing but respect ✊🏾for this guy 🇬🇧
Such a good Soul!♥️I had the honour to meet him and train with him!🙏🏽
I'm halfway through the video and... Wow!
What a lovely, respectful, wise and great character! I love listening to him and hear his story.
What an example of greatness! Thanks for introducing us to him!
This video is absolutely inspirational and at the same time, absolutely moving. You can see how much he cares about the art and the fighters themselves and how gutted he is that he cannot fight in the big leagues. Absolute respect and very heartwrenching. Thank you so much for sharing! I hope to train with him one day in the near future.
This guy is much of what I loved about Thailand.
He deserve a million viewers , his trying his best to speak english even when he cant . Big Respect to this man .
Goddamn that was beautiful
The Honor and respect in the traditional martial arts is something to behold. I am forever grateful to have found muay thai and more importantly, the people of muay thai 🙌 love and respect to you all
It broke my heart when he started talking about how his family doesn’t approve and he’s “lonely” :(
This is what Muay Thai is about, Respect ....He’s proof of it
Had this on my watch list for a while. Finally watched this and I'm so moved emotionally. Thank you and Gae for this.
Gae's english not fluently and i'm too. But, you know, i don't read, i can understand what he said without subtitles. He was spoke by heart, and i hear his heart's beat. Thanks (gae).
Thank you so much for taking us through this amazing journey with great inspiration, this video has touched my heart deeply... I have tears running down my face, being blessed by this man...
What a great man. This video really touched me. This man has real passion for what he does.
Truly inspirational. Another great video, thank you so much brother!
I cant express how valuable this video is even if i write 10 thousand words.
Thanks for sharing these people's stories and messages Kenshin.
It was such a honour to have trained with this great man🥊🙏🏻
Mad respect, yo! How long did you train for? It looks like so much fun to be with someone who trully LOVES the art so much.
I am a Man and I like to fight also,but his Passion and of course his unbelievable character brought me to tears !
We all can learn from him,not only about fighting,we can learn how to be good humans......his biggest dream was to be a muay thai Champion,but he became so much more ! God bless this man !!!
"Master the art of peace as well as the art of war." Words to live by.
Thank you for all the videos. I rarelly ever comment or give a thumbs up but rest assured, I appreciate your work (as do the rest of the fellas here). The insight and stories you've shered are inspiring. Hope the good stuff never stops never stops. Btw, does anyone else here thinks we need a black-eyed smiley lol
big respect for trainer Gae.. such pureness.. humility.. very touching... thanks for awesome documentary!
I feel with him... I wasn't allowed to fight because of my eye condition... but I love muay thai soooo much. My heart broke when I was told by the doctors I can't fight. Great man... he does what he is capable of and trying to find his peace by helping talents reaching their goals. Thank you for this video. 🙏
These Interviews / documentaries are so awesome! Really good Work. What a great guy
I literally cried out ...
So generous and kind hearted person...thx for sharing...feel good I found a video worth watching it..
Master Roshi is a true Master...
Not just mastering a system, but mastering his own heart..may we all have the grace to master our own.
You’ve earned more than a like or subscription my friend.
My respect, as a downed fighter that had his jaw broken at 18 before starting my pro career.. Gave me some true insight and how I can maybe find a lost page that’s been missing in my life’s book for 10 years now.
Thanks again for the video brother and how you’ve shown such a great example of this teacher and the lesson at hand. We need more people this frequency.🙏🏻
You are a warrior, i do boxing and when my training partner who is 30kg heavier and 20cm taller tells me i dont want to punch you hard i say. Hit me let me learn. Warriors are born from struggle
I wish the best for you!❤
Thank you for AWESOME documentary, Lawrence!
I couldn't imagine someone having such passionate and loving heart.
I admire you, Master Roshi!
Everyone have their own fight. And I have to say you are one of the greatest, THE Legendary ones, even you don't think so about yourself.
Trainer Gae, Legend
Leon Ng Hey buddy ? Did you know the exact location of the gym and the coach??
What an inspirational man, and wonderful insight into what Muay Thai is, and means to people in Thailand.
I'm lucky enough as a westerner to call Thailand my home, and am both proud and grateful to live here.
Thank you for this video, and I always look forward to more from your brilliant channel

Really beautiful.
You can see in his eyes, his love for Muay Thai ❤️ so much respect 🙏❤️
I am so very impressed and I love this video. What heart, what love and what caring for his fighters and the sport. Even if you can't fight there is a lot of courage to learn and we can all learn something to protect ourselves when bad people come. God Bless, Ajarn.
Perhaps I'm too old and fat to train like these men do, but this was extremely inspiring. Allows the mind to wander into the zone of possibilities...
Thank you Kenshin for such a touching documentary
I know a 50 yo lady who jogged with a weighted vest and trained hapkido, last I heard she got her 1st dan in 3 years... its never too late
Never think you're not capable, every dream has a beginning, with the right mindset and dedication almost anything is possible...never forget that the mind controls the body, strengthen your mind and it will strengthen your body.
You can do what your heart and mind wills. How you are now does not matter. You just have to want to improve and you will, no matter age, condition, setbacks, anything. If I didn't believe this, I would not be typing this message right now--I'd be dead or invalid in a hospital bed.
Chapter Master Carcharias i want you to try it at least once. Promises you’ll love it 😊
If you never try... You never know...
all the best sir !
He remind me so much Sakad on one of your video. Amazed by his knowledge of the art, humility and passion. It seems to be very tough when sparring with him but you should learn a lot. Thx Lawrence to show us these.
This man is such an inspiration💙 I want to learn Muay thai and its culture someday. Such a great man❣️
This is why I love muay thai out of all the martial arts. Every fight, every fighter, everything that is associated with muay thai has stories behind them. Muay thai is in every thais' blood and as a thai even though I dont fight I keep it close to my heart. They dont just fight for the fun of it. It's their passion, their career, their mean of survival and keeping the traditional alive. ❤
2021 still here, watched again
*Thank you for the inspiration trainer Gae* 🙏
thx for the beautiful interview
Hello Kenshin, thank you for making these videos, as an American born Thai trying to become a fighter, I really love watching the insight from old Thai trainers, it makes me miss visiting Thailand with how passionate everyone was there, Gae sounds just like my Grandpa hahaha.
Do you plan on covering Muay Boran or any of the more ancient fighting styles in Thailand?
Great work brother, keep it up!
I love how he attacks during drills to ensure balance.
What an awesome teacher.
Happy Anniversary to this video! super motivation for me! thanks
What a gem! A very good man. Lots of respect for him and his beautiful Journey! Stay real people!! Everything’s possible if you put your mind to it.. 💪🏼🥊💯🙏🏼✊🏼👏
Respect/love/fighting is a universal language and we understood everything he was saying!!! 💯🇲🇽🇺🇸
when the video stopped i had the biggest smile and i didnt even realize
This videos shows the amount of heart he has for this hardcore sport that is the staple of Thailand. Even he doesn't fight he has dedication and passion. Very inspiring video and person. I agree every fight should watch this and ask if they have what it takes to be a fighter. Thank you for this awesome video.
How is possible that you don't like this video? ?
This is for those who have thumb down, don't give any reaction if you don't understand what means ""never stop"" ,what means sport.
Very inspiring person.
Without guys like him a lot of young people take the wrong way of life. .
OSU Sensei Panos
"When you win, wake up now" this caught me off guard. I'd live by this now
This man embodies the attitude that makes me love Muay Thai. I love other martial arts, from Western Boxing to BJJ, but Muay Thai has a certain spirit of it's own that makes it so worth while and enjoyable.
People like him are very rear. I am speechless. May God bless him nd give whatever he want.. Such an amazing person. Just a line for him. Thank you sir for everything. .
Brilliant! And many thanks for your effort.
Having the courage to speak English. This guy has a brave heart. Admire him!
--Only fight me--great time capsule of the power to know thyself. Thanks for sharing the journey
Thank u so much for this video
It touched me in a specific periodo of my Life..
Wow.
Such a good hearted person
I learned more watching this vid than j ever did from my father. Great man
