I just added more Muay Thai shorts from Raja to the store and in case you haven’t noticed or checked them out I want to introduce you to them today. These are some good quality products and quite a variety also. Some of them were made of Satin, shiny fabric, polyester or satin/polyester combined and some are made of special silk just for the different taste.

Give them a try. These are very new and look really good and I think that you should have at least one of these.

Between the 3 types of fabric I still prefer Satin to the others. Since I’m used to it and it gives me the most comfort and remind me of how Muay Thai shorts should really feel. And as you can see we don’t sell cotton boxing shorts here because it is not traditional in Thailand anymore.

Hi and welcome back to our blog! As usual, I’m back here today just to review some of our hot products from the month. These three items below have been best seller at our online store at MuaythaiArt for a few months now. And I think maybe you want to check them out what they are.

First, believe it or not. It’s the Muay Thai Liniment again. Yup again! As I recalled it was one of our best seller last year. But wow, more and more people are willing to try this liniment. I know that in Thailand the Nam man Muay is a must to have for every Muay Thai fighters but I don’t expect these many of orders from outside the country. Maybe you just have to tell me why you like this item so much and how it helps you.

Boxing Liniment 120 c.c.

Thai boxing liniment is believed to help taking care of any strains and sprains from the boxing training and fighting. The user can just apply this oil based product onto your shin bones or muscles before and after the fight to help relieve the pain. You can check this product out by clicking on its picture.

Our next hot item is this pair of Muay Thai boxing gloves from Twins Special. One good outstanding thing about Twins that I like is that they have so many products’ choices for our customers. They are just not lazy to create and design and put ideas into their products. And that’s why their products can still be launching in the market and make best-seller very often.

Lastly, well not exactly the last because these are another pretty tough Muay Thai products to choose according to the numbers of styles and brands. However, Windy, to tell you the truth still cannot beat Raja and Twins in the market but that doesn’t mean their goods are good. A lot of time I find windy shorts look better than the others. These Muay Thai shorts from Windy look really great and I actually got some orders for this item.

Welcome to Art of Muay Thai Blog! I’ve learned that the most popular articles of ours are the learning video of basic Muay Thai lessons. And that is what we continue doing today. The next elbow move is the elbow strike performing while jumping into the air, aka Gra-dod Sork, aka Jumping Elbow.

The Muay Thai technique is created for targets in the face area, for instance, face, head and collar-bone. The move requires the boxer to perform any kind of Muay Thai Elbow (The elbow chop is the most popular) while in the air while both feet are off the ground, especially while about to land to add more force to the elbow. The boxer can either land with one foot or both into the Muay Thai Basic Stance.
The tip is the height of the jump. The higher the jump, the more power can be added to the strike.

Example:

Mid-Air Elbow Chop

Leap into the air bending your knees for extra push. Twist the body to the left and perform the elbow chop. The left arm instead of holding up to defend, the boxer can leave it hang naturally at the side. Chop the elbow down while you’re starting to land or on the way of coming down. Land with one foot or both feet right back to the basic Thai boxing stance.
Here’s the video we made. FYI it might look not so good for some of you but we hope it will be helpful especially for someone who want to start Muay Thai.

Straight Knees

Welcome back to TOTALLY FREE MUAY THAI Lesson. How’re you guys doing with all the new moves!? Today I bring you such a famous move to practice on. Let’s find out. The move is called KUMPAN PUNG HOK
KUMPAN PUNG HOK is one of quite famous maneuver for attacking, escaping, and defending yourself at the same time. How to make this Thai Boxing move? Let us tell you..

First, you as the boxer just bends your right knee and raise it up in the oblique position toward the left.

Second, Twist your body to the right and hit your boxing partner, or in case of the real ring fight your opponent, try focusing on the abdomen or the chest if your opponent raise his/her knee at a higher position.

Third, be sure that you can keep yourself well on your own position which you only have your left leg to rely on, raise your arms in the execution of this art of muay thai technique to control your balance well and to defend yourself from your boxing partnet attacks.

For, Deliver straight knee.

Now let’s go through these things just one technique at the time
When Attack , your opponent would twist his/her body to prevent your straight knee on the chest or abdomen, and more importantly, he/she must raise his/her left elbow to prevent the ribs from the attack

Now what about defending

The point is to set your weight well on your left leg, try to throw such a forceful right foot to your boxing partner.

Remember always to wear your protection, such a sport injury can be really harmful, defending techniques are always useful to prevent a serious injury, try not to forget it.

Boxing is such a beautiful art and powerful sport of defensing, and protecting, it has been used and modified for hundreds of years, this art is belong to what we call “a fair fight”. Keep this Martial Art’s beauty is to use it in an admirable way. Use it well.

Hey have you enjoyed our boxing learning clips so far? I didn’t have time to put more in YouTube. I got all the video clips files on my computer but can’t find time to add them on YouTube. Anyway I think I’ve got pretty good feedback for our Muay Thai learning clips, so I will keep doing it until finish as many Muay Thai moves as possible.

Today’s boxing clip is called in Thai “Sork Kradode” or “Kradode Sork”. It’s great for targets like head, face or collar-bone just like the elbow chop in our last Muay Thai learning video but a little harder to perform. Basically, in this move, you have to use any type of elbow strike like horizontal elbow (I would personally recommend the elbow chop for this technique) while jumping in mid-air. The most successful hit is to jump as high as possible and strike the target just when you’re starting coming down or landing on the ground because with the body weight the strike is much more powerful. When landing, remain the position of your feet of the boxing stance. You can land both feet together or one at a time.

Here’s the step by step. Take off into the air as high as possible. Bend your knees a bit for extra power before springing yourself up. Twist the body to the left just like when you’re doing the elbow chop. And at the point of landing, strike the point of your elbow down on your opponent’s head forcefully and rapidly.

Alright, that’s it for today muay thai clip. Hope you like it. Give it a try with your trainer. Come back if you like the result! See you soon.
