Muay Thai Lesson 3

[@blonde.mikhail]

Thank you for this. Not a lot of Muay Thai gyms in my country and this is very helpful. Probably one of the best lessons I’ve found on the internet.

Thanks man it really helps with ju jitsu

[@davejohnson-yi2rk]

Straight forward info, and helpful, but by the time he's teaching Blocks, he really could've benefited from having a partner to demonstrate your opponents punches etc.

[@northstarfreebird3167]

[@陈宜猛]

Is this traditional muay thai?

[@sahintuncel2515]

Good..

[@GladiatorExtreme726]

Maybe the video quality can be better but this definitely works

[@blacktigermartialarts7329]

Kyokushin Karate, Japanese Kickboxing and Ashihara Karate and Enshin Karate and Kudo have shin blocks too. Google Andy Hug....

[@ArashiDoNorthEdmonton]

Good point, I forgot about Kyokushin. I'm not familiar with Ashihara/Enshin or Kudo. To be fair they are not very easy styles to come across in North America. I've seen some of Andy Hugs fights too, great fighter and love his spinning kick to the leg.

[@numberone-kb2kh]

The audio is a little bit low

[@agentsmith6570]

not good technique. for example he crunches when leg check also going up on toes and not standing flat when checking a kick gonna reduce your stability and balance. i would not recommed this channel!

[@ArashiDoNorthEdmonton]

You brought up some good points and I can see you watched the video but I do each for a reason. I crunch my body slightly to make sure I can cover my torso and not leave a gap between my elbow and knee. If I bring my knee any higher then my supporting leg is vulnerable to getting kicked. You mentioned the flat foot. Never say never, but you should never be flat footed when fighting. It makes you unstable and slow. Whenever you stand on one leg (ie to kick, knee, check) your heel should come slightly off the floor. The reasoning is if you are flat, the impact from the kick can shove you backwards over your heel and you will lose balance. Standing flat is great if you want to lift something but even then you don't want too much weight on your heel to risk going backwards. Thanks for the comment, I was just thinking of doing a video on common leg check mistakes and being flat was one of them. Much easier to see in a video than to have a paragraph that no one wants to read. I'll try to get the video up next week.
