I'm just getting to grips with the axe kick. This video is brilliant for my learning. Thanks for sharing!
Love the front leg axe kick. You see it a lot in light continuous KB, so it's good to see some set ups with K1 too.
Really great video, thanks for taking the time to make it
The Light continuous kickboxing scene is one I spent a lot of time in when I was younger so agree completely. As I progressed into other styles I kept using it and just adapted it to suit purpose. Thank you for watching and taking the time to comment!
I do love light continuous, so dynamic. It's great to see people with that background making a successful transition into MMA now too, with wonderboy, Page, Sage etc. People with high level light continuous background are really giving people trouble with stand up with the front leg attacks and the wide stance footwork.
Really loving finding your channel mate, learning a lot from it and stealing lots of drills for my training!! :)
Beautiful Axe kick tutorial Stuart :) Awesome shout out to the late great Andy Hug

I love the axe kick, one of my favourite techniques (I'm lucky because I've always been quite tall). Fantastic tutorial, thanks man. That first combo especially was pure gold, I'm stealing that one 😉
Steal away ha ha, I am really glad you enjoyed it. I felt like making the tutorial as I had not really seen much done on the axe kick and it is something I use a lot to great effect!
thanks for all videos and tutorials really helping my in my kickboxing traings hope you are sharing more very soon
I love that kick. We practiced different variants on Friday. I'm 6'1 and works on taller opponents too.
Lots of kids don't got enough flexibility these days....
Been thinking how to set up the axe kick. Thank u so much sir for the sharing.
You are more than welcome, glad to have been of help!
Axe kick is a great kick, it is the easiest kick for beginners to get to head level.
Also I really like your videos!

I love an inward cresent kick, it's my favorite move. What's yours?
Would you ever do a side kick instead of a roundhouse in the last move of the very last combination set.
Absolutely!
Lead leg, maybe even with a little hop into it. I'd really make that decision based on how my body positioning is after the push. On some occasions I've even been able to follow distancing techniques like that with a rear leg side kick, especially when they end up in the corner and have less space to avoid it.
If you have followed pushes with roundhouse kicks to the body and your opponent expects that, a quick front or side kick to switch things up can really sting.
Me personally, it really depends on the style, rules I am sparring or competing in. If it is the kickboxing rule set then I love the axe kick but will utilise a lot of side kicks and roundhouse kicks as well. In thai I would be more likely to use front kicks (teeps) and roundhouse kicks but funnily enough with the occasional axe kick, I just would not use any of the kicks that would leave me lead leg vulnerable i.e. side kicks etc. In answer to your other question, I personally would not use a side kick in that sequence although that is not to say it would not work for someone else. Glad you enjoyed the vid, thanks for taking the time to watch and comment!
Great and way to go, however using the axe kick is very risky especially if your opponent is coming forward towards you. That is to say you might lose balance and loose the fight. Anyway, I enjoyed your video very much.
best
honestly although pretty to look at its about as powerful as a crescent kick and it also is basically just used to score a point by catching your opponent of guard but it really leaves you open waaaaay tooooo many counters
Hey, I actually find it works for me well and always has done. Whether or not it will work as well for others is another thing entirely. I get where you are coming from, it is unorthodox and most people struggle to land it with enough venom to make it anything more than a point scoring technique. But, there are people who can. I like to think I can hit hard with it. Historically Andy Hug utilised it to great effect in full contact K1 on a regular basis as well. It is not going to be everyones cup of tea though, I hope you enjoyed the video regardless!!
and you should use it if you want to but honestly when it comes to fights to the knockout its a very risky technique is all I'm saying but I do enjoy your videos sir
Is K1 a combo of muay Thai, karate/tkd and boxing ?
Yes
K-1 isin't a specific style. It's the name of a Kickboxing promoter organisation and the rules which governs the Kickboxing bouts. You can use any style in K-1 as long as you are following the ruleset while fighting in the ring.
how does one become flexible enough to do an axe kick
John Trachsel hamstring stretches and strengthening both the hamstrings and lower abs. front splits, leg on chair whilst standing etc recommend Hee Il Cho s kicking textbook the complete masters kick as it has an entire section on axe kick- fundamental technique, application (geared to TKD) and all stretches and strengthening. good luck in your training
9 people don't have the flexibility to axe kick.

lots of tips cfor my class BELLO DAVVERO (love truly)
its faster if you bend your knee first and throw it from a chamber position
I get where you are coming from, this is just the way I have always thrown it. Each to their own I guess, I just tend to get more height utilising it in this manner. Thanks for the coaching point though!
Valknut Martial Arts i disagree. I've been training for twenty six years and its called a competition style axe kick and its faster and more effecient if you know how to do it. because you can throw it in tighter positions. i can axe kick you from the clinch. there is more to martial arts that what your limited too. and just because you bend your knee doesn't mean your hip isn't engaged. when the hammer drops in a good axe kick your body should be side ways instead of square.
Valknut Martial Arts i can suggest a good school. im speaking from 26 years of experience. alot of tkd fighters throw there axe kicks the way i described. its called a competition style axe kick and it will knock you out and its more deceptive, faster and effecient. the axe kick in this video is called a traditional style axe kick and though it has its place it can be easily counterd with a quick hoping back kick or a push kick.
Valknut Martial Arts your pretty technical and you are right its a black belt technique and does require years of training to acquire the fluidity of such kicks.
Valknut Martial Arts true. a punch is just a punch and s kick is just a kick. conventional knowledge is a process that leads to ultimate truth. the style is just the foundation. mastery is when you transcend style and technique and embody the true expression of self. alot of great fighters mixed in tkd too like mcgregor, ali, raymond daniels, ernesto hoost and so on. it helps to learn as much as you can to gain a full spectrum of understanding. however there are many paths to the top of the mountain but the view is the same.
