Venerable Ajahn Chah was born on June 17, 1918 in a small village near the town of Ubon Rajathani, North-East Thailand.
Ajahn Chah often pushed his monks to their limits, to test their powers of endurance so that they would develop patience and resolution.
In 1977, Ajahn Chah was invited to visit Britain by the English Sangha Trust, a charity with the aim of establishing a locally-resident Buddhist Sangha.
Ajahn (a term that can be loosely translated to Master) Suchart was born in Thailand in 1959 and began his intense study of the Thai fighting techniques at the age of nine years old.
In 1992 Ajahn Suchart was finally able to begin spreading his knowledge of the Muay Thai fighting techniques and philosophies to interested members of the Regent Park Community.
As well as teaching in the Regent Park Community, Ajahn Suchart began an informal school in the basement of his friend's restaurant, Young Thailand where it became apparent that the thirst for Muay Thai was great in the city of Toronto.
