I often see/get comments suggesting that the stance in Muay Thai isn’t practical. The common ones are ā€œThey stand too square on, their hands are too high and their elbows stick out too muchā€. ⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ HANDS NOT HIGH ENOUGH: Having your hands resting on your chin, isn’t the best defence when you consider the danger elbows and head kicks can do. An elbow striking you from the cheek bone up, can do some serious damage, not to mention what a shin across the face can do. ⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ ELBOWS TOO TIGHT TO THE BODY: In a Muay Thai bout this isn’t very practical. Having your arms too close to your body means you can’t check the kicks properly (checking with your shin). Kicks to the arms in MT score and remember the MT roundhouse is one of the strongest kicks in any martial art.⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ LEAD LEG TURNED INWARDS: Some combat sports suggest having the lead leg turned in so positions your body in a way that creates a smaller target. For Muay Thai this really isn’t a good idea. For one, having that lead leg turned in means it’s going to be extremely difficult to check the leg/calf kicks. Standing in this fashion in Muay Thai actually creates a bigger target for your opponent. Remember the MT roundhouse predominantly attacks from the side….so standing slightly side on means you’ll be open to some real heavy strikes. ⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ HANDS AT EYEBROW LEVEL: This is generally so you’re able to defend the elbow strikes and head kicks.⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ ELBOWS PROTRUDE SLIGHTLY: Elbows protrude slightly in Muay Thai so you’re able to check the kicks quickly and solidly. The knee must come up in front of the elbow which makes a shield to defend the kick. If your elbows are tight to the body when you check, then the kick will come over the knee and land heavy across the arms.⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ LEG TURNED OUTWARDS: Having your foot turned outwards (or straight on) enables you to defend the roundhouse kick quickly. Standing like this makes you more square on but you’ll be more solid against the MT kick. Being slightly side means a heavy kick can can easily knock you off position. This is because there’s no support leg to take the impact of the kick⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ Any questions please ask šŸ˜ŠšŸ‘ā£ #muaythai #fundamentals
