This month in classes at Urban, we focussed on the following aspects of Muaythai:

• Keep it simple, keep them moving, flow!
• Pad holder is the boss, boxer is the student of the padholder
• Keep it a conversation; boxer hits and defends
• • Step across the opponent’s body, away from the leg that is kicking
  • Engage your core, roll your hip
  • Hard part of your shin, on 3 soft spots on your opponent: Thigh, Rib, Neck
• Step – slide! Like there is a rubber band between your ankles
• Move in one way, exit out a different way
• Always keep your feet shoulder-width, shoulder-depth
• Speed and Power come with correct technique FIRST
• Power in punches comes from the opposite shoulder
• Lock in your core so your body works as a whole.
