Muay Thai - How to do a Flying Knee

Knees are a huge part of Muay Thai, and there is nothing like seeing a beautiful flying knee landed on your opponents chin! Key points to remember:
1. The mechanics of the flying knee are exactly the same as the basic straight knee.
2. You are pushing off of your support leg in order to get airborne.
3. The same side arm that you are kneeing with will swing downward as the opposite side arm will come across in front of your face for protection.
4. Keep the toes of the kneeing leg pointed and push your hips forward.

[@paulpelle3046]

Lovely shape bro 🙏
After nearly 3 years Muay Thai training (including lockdowns 🙄), I STILL really struggle to do a decent front leg jumping knee. 🤷‍♂️
I ALWAYS do rear leg jumping knees, or do scissor knees. 🤔

[@KingMally89]

Thanks bro just gave me another technique to master.

Knee cap of glory

[@evadesc]

are there muay thai fighters that jump higher by pushing off both legs from farther out and then executing the knee in mid-air rather than jumping off the support leg only?

[@TheStrikersLab]

There are many different variations of the flying knee. But yes, there are ways to jump higher, and also execute the knee in mid-air. A way of achieving this is by doing a switch knee or scissor knee, which involves switching the attacking knee while in mid-air.
