You guys made perfect tutorial! Great explanation, yo! Best wishes!
5 star teaching right here!
Cheers. Have to watch it again a few times 😃 always had my front foot turned prob why I'm slow at checking and also having the elbows flared a bit always thought it's easier for them to kick you in the ribs buts it's a cool setup to catch their legs and firing the elbow shots is a lot easier your way 👍
Good stuff. My gym only went through stance very quickly and didn't correct anything. So this is nice to see!
Way to go! Setting that young man up to have a strong foundation of confidence discipline and assertiveness :)
Thank you! Appreciate the kind words! 🙏
I was thinking that too because he put in his son still young, so young
You guys are both amazing as always! :-) Keep it up...
Thank you! Appreciate the kind words! 🙏
Good video! Simple and effective, concise explanations
Thank you!
My jab wasn't getting any better because hands were too tucked in to my ribs. I realised my elbows needed to be flared a little bit and my job got instantaneously better. ❤
The kid has outstanding form. 👌🏾
Thank you! 💯

Thank for such a great explaination sir.
Very welcome! 💯
Fundamentals , You can’t stress it enough. Some traditional styles might push the hands out or square up more but this style is absolutely perfect in my experience. A Solid base and good structure puts you in the best position possible to go to work offensively and defensively. Nice job good clear instructions!
Absolutely! Thank you for the comment!

Very useful video.
I’m a boxer transitioning to Muay Thai so I’m having to forget everything I have ever learned about my stance and body positioning so it’s a headache to say the least.
Do you have any advice for boxers converting to Muay Thai?
Very good 😊
Thank you! 🙏
very usefull
Thank you 🙏
Great
Thank you!
Subbed thank you

Merci! Et oui, fort possible que nous allons en faire en français également!
Great vid and solid basics right there!
ผู้ช่วยครูอเล็กซ์สุดยอด
ขอบคุณมาก 🙏
Hey, my trainer is a multiple national champion and he also says that elbows needs to be tight, because of front kicks/knees/punches in solar plexus area. How do you protect against them in stance with wide elbows? Greetings
When you get stronger you can take them easier. Work on your mental too, your mental discipline. Fighting is not always about going wild and being undisciplined. You have to be always ready, that's where discipline comes in
Very instructive, quick question ,is ok to keep hands open or does it have to be a light fist?
Yes, I keep hands open quite often as well (by habit) since I like to practice my drills light, so it enhances the relaxation and teaches you to remain relaxed and fluid during your motions. 👍
Thank you, greatly appreciated!
@@ExperienceMMA thanx
Would it be good if I trained Muay Thai and Boxing, or should I just stick to one? Also, great video.
You can train both. As much as your schedule permits.
Hey man where did you get the t shirt?
Man, that shirt is from a decade ago. Thailand.
Going through your videos all over again danny!🔥
Great stuff! Glad you are enjoying the content on my channel! Appreciate the support! 💯
Sir Can u show me whole Muay Thai moves n training
I've been training my flexibility to get higher kicks
That's great! Check out this video from my channel with great warm-ups and stretches: ruclips.net/video/D-yhPx9INV4/видео.html
Question: how do you convince a trainer who has come up in a more kick boxing / orthodox stance (elbows in, less shoulder in your straight right) that you want to keep a more traditional Thai stance (wider elbows / higher hands etc)? All trainers seem to want to make adjustments to their style. I think I just answered my own question: try to find a single head coach who you work with all the time.
You can find a new trainer! Haha! But seriously, I think there is always great value in all of the different methods, dependant on the style and outcome you are trying to achieve. The main reason some don't prefer the wide or long guard is simply because they also don't understand how to catch kicks; the clinching game; and also the importance and severity of how elbow strikes play in a fight. All this starts to make more sense once you incorporate all of those three concepts into the striking game, as opposed to boxing only or PKA-style absorbing kicks on your arms. In the meantime, keep your guard tight... but your mind open! Thanks for the question and keep training hard! -DF.
@@ExperienceMMA thanks mate!
Yeah, the background is badass cool, kid looks like ben ten.
🙏💯🔝
6:07 …. tried that, leg was swollen from leg kicks lol , idk about all that boss
4 directional movement front - back - right - left ..done to 4/4 time music.
center line and its use !!!
learn them long guard early on.
they need long guard to hand fight - pummel into elbows !!!
💯
How to throw a kick correctly
5 estrelas ensinando aq
My weak posture and lack of eye contact is my shell.....
How do you cover your ribs from punches?
Like boxing, but in muay thai a body Punch is usually not to be concerned about beacasue there are more deadly long range weapons.
ผมดีใจมากที่ คุณชอบมวยไทย😁💞💟👍
ขอบคุณ 🙏
I’m half Thai

while fighting do both the front and the rear leg need to be on the balls of the feet?
Hi Shadlee! Only the rear leg. The leg leg should only be on the ball of the foot during rotations such as in the Lead Hook or Right Swing Kicks, for example, where you need to pivot to engage your hips to generate power. But in the Guarded Stance, lead foot should be flat, grounded solid, and pointing toward your opponent. Hope this helps! 🙏 DF.
@@ExperienceMMA The front leg should only be on the ball of the foot during rotations such as in the Lead Hook or Right Swing Kicks right?Should it also be on the ball of the foot when throwing the cross punch?How should we switch from the guarded stance where the lead foot is flat to when the lead foot is on the ball of the foot just before throwing the Lead Hook or Right Swing Kicks?
Correct. You pivot during the twist of you Lead Hook and during the rotation of your hips.and shoulders on the Swing Kicks. Browse through my channel and you will find many videos I posted which covers these in great detail. We are also going to be releasing an in-depth Muay Thai course soon, for purchase, which will include HOURS of detailed knowledge of every single technique!
@@ExperienceMMA Thanks a lot! How to move, i mean should the front foot be flat while the rear foot is on the ball of the foot or should the front foot be also on the ball of the foot when moving. Plus should the front leg be on the ball of the foot when throwing the cross punch?Thanks in advance and sorry for bothering kinda needed to know.
@@shadleekhan7507 I recommend keeping your lead foot flat as it will serve to solidify both your stance during movement as well as during your cross punch. Now, when shuffling quicker to either move IN or move AWAY from your opponent's attacks quickly, you can then balance your advances or retreat on the ball of your lead foot (and back one) to move faster. Hope this answers your question. 👍
I just got my daughter in Muay Thai and she is 9 I want her to be good with the hands should I take her out of Muay thai and put her in boxing
The answer would be vague as it would all depend on your current Muay Thai school. I am aware that "some" MT academies focus mainly on the traditional and old school aspect which is inclined towards more clinching; knees/elbows; and kicking. At Experience, I always make it an importance to incorporate a lot of modern boxing into my MT and MMA programs, and I am certain that many others do so as well nowadays, if they understand its importance that is. You can always keep her training where she is and you guys can watch many or our videos on this channel as we constantly upload many great tutorials on how to train all of the different aspects of combat sports from boxing, muay thai, wrestling, mma, jiu-jitsu and no-gi. The most important thing is to keep her motivated and happy about her training! All the best! 🙏
does body type matter in muay thai? Im only 13 and im pretty underweight tho..tq.
Martial arts were initially created to help the smaller people defend themselves. Having great technique and developing great skills is the great equalizer in any self-defense situation. Keep training well and consistently buddy! 💪 💯😊
@@ExperienceMMA Thank you so much sir! 🙏 this really helped me out! words cant desribe it..👍☺️
Does the lead foot need to be the strong foot?
It all depends on what techniques are to be used. Generally, though, it will be 50/50.
@@ExperienceMMA thank you for your quick answere :D
I got another one im pretty in the beginning.
So my left leg is way stronger than my right one and my right arm is a bit stronger than my left. What stance would you recommend, still left leg behind?
Which hand do you write with? If it's with the right hand, then from now on you are an Orthodox Fighter. You will lead with your left side in front.
I'm Muay Thai champ in Indo Burma assam
Congrats! 👊
Why in other videos hands fist is not closed.. Its partially open
You should always remain a bit loose. Your closed fist will stiffen upon landing the shot.
@@ExperienceMMA ok.. I understood it shoulnt hard.. But what im saying is some thai movies or no gloves fight they dont close the fist..its open
You don't have a muay thai defense basics? How to defend
But there are multiple muay thai stances.
Yes, there are. These are the basics.
@@ExperienceMMA Make a video. Would like to see some.
As far as I know you got the back leg taking most your weight, then the even stance you showed, then the forward weighted stance. All have their pros and cons.
Hand positioning is another element. Some fighters have a karate style hand position, others a western boxing, long guard. I think those are all that exist AFAICR
There are multiple stances for every martial art. This is obviously his preference.
1:08
Joe higashi 😁
The elbows need to be jaw area. Your using western boxing with the stance. In Muay Thai you need to bring the elbows up.
That is 100%.... inaccurate.
Sounds like a great way to expose your ribs for kicks
Better than all the karate/taekwondo crap!
I believe that every martial art style has its benefits, but of course I am biased and will always vouch for my own style, which is Muay Thai! 😉 💯🙏
I myself did kyokushin Karate and Taekwondo, black belt in both! We spend a good deal of time in doing useless form, I hate them. If we use that time doing kick a punches combination, instead our fighting capacity will be much better! I did use tkd kick a punches in a street situacion once in a ATM machine, but I am sure if the situation extended a little longer, I am pretty sure, I will be toothless, since that day!
@@elliotsoto8508 The main thing is that you are aware of what would work vs what wouldn't work in a real situation. 👍
What if my enemy is also watching this video?
Holy shit I wouldn't like to get my ass kicked by these legs
When he forgets abt the marching rhythm
This video is about the stance, not footwork. But of course, your comment must be because you're a very prestigious Muay Thai expert 🤔
