This article presents the findings of a comprehensive analysis on the teaching of Muay Thai in various settings and contexts within the state of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. Materials and methods: The study is divided into two distinct parts, with the first chapter consisting of a scoping review that encompassed a wide range of academic databases and sources. The research spanned across platforms such as LILACS, PubMed, MEDLINE – Bireme, SCOPUS, Scielo, the Catalog of Theses and Dissertations from the Coordination for the Improvement of Higher Education Personnel (CAPES), Google Scholar, and EBSCO. Articles published in scientific journals, as well as dissertations and theses exclusively related to Muay Thai in the field of Physical Education, available in digital format and in the Portuguese language, within the temporal scope of 2011 to 2020, were considered. The search terms employed included "Muay Thai," "Muay-Thai," "Muaythai," and "Thai Boxing. "The second part of the dissertation involved an exploratory study where semi-structured interviews were conducted with Muay Thai leaders and instructors in Brazil. The selection of interviewees followed Becker's Snowball Sampling principle (1999). Transcripts of the interviews were subjected to content analysis, resulting in the identification of categories and subcategories. The Iramuteq software was used for quantitative analysis, with a significance level set at 0.05. Results: The analysis of 22 selected studies revealed that the "Biodynamics" subcategory prevailed, representing 52% of the total analyzed, in comparison to the subareas of "Sociocultural," which accounted for 36%, and "Pedagogical," with only 12%. Furthermore, the results indicated a prevalence of quantitative research methods in contrast to qualitative and mixed methods. The interviews with Muay Thai instructors led to the identification of five key categories, namely: 1) Teacher Training, 2) Teaching Style and Instructor Performance in Their Classes, 3) Teaching Environment and Student Relations, 4) Lesson Planning, and 5) Student Profiles. Additionally, the "Lesson Planning" category was further divided into three subclasses: 1) Generally Planned, 2) Consciously Planned, and 3) Planning Depends on the Athlete. Conclusion: This dissertation sheds light on the scarcity of research concerning the teaching of Muay Thai, thereby hindering the understanding of sociocultural changes within the sport in Brazil and their pedagogical implications. The analysis revealed distinct characteristics, including the significance of lesson planning and the need for future investigations to gain a deeper understanding of how instructors teach Muay Thai in the region
