Left, Right, Elbow Combination - Female Muay Thai

Folding elbows into the context of a jab and cross is vital to using them in fights. I have a hard time keeping my hips in, which allows for the step, dip and rotation that is required for vertical elbows. I do keep my elbows tighter though, which was an improvement.

He actually lives in the next state over and I drive over an hour to see him. But I KNOW how lucky am to have him anywhere near me that I can train with him! He's amazing.

This is just brilliant especially taking the head way off the centerline while enabling rotation for a tremendous elbow!

@MasterKMuayThai The advantages to leaning back like this are protecting the head from strikes and keeping the hips forward so your legs (kicks and blocks) are ready to move and having them forward and loose will increase power a lot. A disadvantage is if you are uncomfortable or off balance. There are different schools of thought for stance, how the arms move, etc - even within the same camps in Thailand. I say: learn them all and sort it out by what feels good to you.

Japanese come to muay thai from a karate base, Americans from a "kickboxing" base. I actually worked it into TKD and would switch up, but you can do that when you're 16 and gifted. Not so much now! Still round kick like a mule, though :-) I was even taught street style and ring style by the sameThai trainer, and they're different. Everyone't got different flavors, and they all kick hard.

@TheVincebob You don't want to keep your feet close together, even if it does protect against inside kicks. But watch Thai fighters in Thailand online. See how they distribute their weight and try it out. Everyone is different.

Late to the party here, but germans come to thai Boxing from a Euro/US kickboxing stance, more like western boxing with Muay Muay thai kicks. Thus the forward bias. Traditional Thai (as I was taught) is always rear bias, at least until you start moving forward. Watch her head move slightly forward of center as she punches. Beautiful hand work, by the way. better than I ever was.

@TheVincebob Hallo Vince, ich verstehe nicht genau was Sie meinen mit "on nearly the same height with my feet." Ihres Koerpergewicht ist gleich auf beiden Fusse? Ich hab' meinen Kopf ueber dem hinten Fuss und vielleicht 70% mein Koerpergewicht darauf. Ich liege zurueck um meine Hueften vor zu bringen und damit viel Kraft zu haben. Ich kann meinen Kopf besser schutzen, wenn ich hinterliegen. Excuse my German also, I don't get to use it often :)

[@Benbanme]

Have you ever seen diagonal elbows with such deep head dip used in Thailand? I haven't seen the head dips in my share of Muay Thai, or maybe I'm missing something here
