Abstract | Thang-Ta, a traditional martial art from Manipur, India, has evolved significantly into a modern sport. This combat art is also known as Huiyen Langlon. It integrates swordplay, spear techniques, unarmed combat, and spiritual practices. This study explores the development of Thang-Ta into a recognized sport at the national level. For this study researcher collected primary data from TTFI and published books, journal article as secondary data. Key milestones include the establishment of the Thang-Ta Federation of India (TTFI) in 1993, its recognition by the Indian Olympic Association in 2006, and inclusion in the National School Games and Khelo India Youth Games. Data from national championships between 1993 and 2022 highlights a steady rise in participation, increased gender inclusivity, and regional representation. Efforts to codify rules, promote accessibility, and adapt to modern sports frameworks have successfully transitioned Thang-Ta from a heritage martial art to a vibrant competitive sport. |
