These 4 Steps helps you to Mastering in Thai Boxing

1. Learning the right technique.

First you’ve got to learn the proper Muay Thai technique for whatever situation your working on.

Maybe your working on learning the proper fundamental mechanics to the round kick, or how to catch a push kick. Perhaps you’re having trouble dealing with your opponents jab punches and need to learn how to counter it.

Whichever Muay Thai moves your learning you need to be sure it’s the right one. Hopeful you’re taking Muay Thai classes from a good instructor. That way you know you’re learning the best techniques the right way. Remember that all the steps are going to be pointless if the technique you’re learning is wrong.

2. Drilling the Muay Thai Technique

We now know the correct way to do the technique. Once you learn something new you’ve got to drill it, over and over again, until it becomes a reflex and you don’t have to think about it.

You can drill the techniques in class or outside of class. I recommend both. When your not in your Muay Thai classes schedule a time when your free and can drill these moves. It doesn’t have to be hours at a time, maybe 15-20 minutes tops.

You can even shoot for a certain number of times your going to do the move. Say… 200 reps of whatever the technique is.

This will help a ton and will get you dramatic results in your Muay Thai training really fast!
3. Situation Drilling of That Technique

What’s situational drilling? It’s something you’d use in sparring or on the Thai pads, but with a goal in mind. That goal most of the time is to test out something new or work on trouble areas of your kickboxing game.

Pretty much you get put in an exact scenario where you have to use your newly learned technique with a set time limit to attack or until you execute the martial arts technique properly.

Example: You learn how to catch the right round kick to the body. You then drill it like crazy and now with the situation drilling, you start working with a training partner in situations where you would execute that particular technique.

You get 3 minutes to defend the right round kick — only by catching. That forces you to use and perfect catching the Muay Thai kick only. We call those situation drills.

We use them a lot here at my Muay Thai school. You’d be wise to do the same.
4. Trying the Technique in a Live Situation

What does live mean? What’s a live situation? We call it controlled sparring.

That’s the safest way to test out new techniques. Sparring in a controlled environment is the best choice for not only testing techniques, but for you and your partners safety as well.

This will give you a chance to test your technique out in the real world, or as close to the real world as you can get.

That’s never a good idea when your first learning to master a new technique.

Controlled sparring under the supervision of a knowledgeable instructor should be on the menu too

When you first try out a newly learned technique in sparring don’t be surprised if it doesn’t work. Most techniques fail the first time you try ‘em. That’s just the way learning goes, no worries so make sure to keep on trying it.

After a while if you still don’t have success with a certain technique then it’s time to toss it. Maybe it just wasn’t a good fit for you. That doesn’t mean the technique doesn’t work, it just didn’t work for your abilities, body type, speed or any other reason.

How to Escape the Muay Thai Body Lock Clinch

In this technique we will cover how to escape the body lock clinch, when the opponent has both hands underneath.

The biggest problem with an opponent having double under hooks or the body lock… Is that they can have greater control over you and can easily take you down. This is also an uncomfortable position where they can attack with a variety of different knee strikes.

This escape will keep you from getting put down and will help stop your opponent from banging you up with curve knees to the thighs and ribs. Remember, we always want to take the least amount of damage, while escaping this terrible position.

How to escape the body Lock

1. He has you in the double under hooks or body lock position.

Secure the right leg instep on the inside of his left thigh to create a hook. (If I don’t have the hook in, when I come over the top, he is just going to come around to your back).
Grab the back of his neck with your right hand and squeeze your elbow in between the body (if you can) to create space and pressure on the opponent.
Place your left hand on the hip or get a over hook.
Rotate your right arm over the top and around to the right side of his head. Turning your body clock-wise to your right.

2. Keep good balance on your supporting right leg

Start to rotate clock-wise, as you press his head down with pressure in the same direction with your right arm.
Extend your right hook on his thigh to create more pressure, so it will be a lot harder for him to hold on.

3. Once the grip is released, place your right foot on the ground

Move your hips back and step back with the right leg.
Keep your body weight on your opponent.
Now you have the ability to counter with knee strikes.
Common Mistakes

Not putting in a hook – The main reason for placing the hook on the thigh is to create space and take away his balance. Also not using the hook will give your opponent a chance to come around to your back. Leaving you exposed for strikes and sweeps.

Keeping Balance – Balance is very important in this position. Remember, you are only on one leg and can easily be taken down. Secure a good balance point with your support leg… you might even need to hop around with your leg to maintain a strong base and balance.

Creating pressure on the head – Once your ready to rotate the body when your arm is on the other side of the head, it’s important that there is a lot pressure coming down on top to break the grip and bring him down.
