How amazing is it we can watch this stuff across the world, such an incredible teacher and we can watch this for free, amazing, thankyou.

Man he looks like an excellent teacher. I know he has a life time of experience, but it looked like he got you to "feel" each thing he corrected in just a few reps and that's amazing to me haha

I've lived in Thailand for close to 10 years, Muay Thai is very close to my heart. I love seeing this 😍. Some of your right kicks are perfect ❤️ And I miss my Muay Thai friends in Thailand ❤️😍🇹🇭

Wow. He dropped so many power tidbits in 10 minutes that I'm on my 6th viewing and I still keep hearing small things that I didn't absorb yet.

that kick where it comes up and then pivots.. there's a savate version where you launch the kick up almost under the opponent's armpit, and then pivot your hips almost so your facing away from your oponent.. and then your foot will come up, over and down into the neck or jaw from above the shoulder; with all that downward force from your pivot(it's a BIG, quick pivot of the body). i've seen some mma guys use it to great effect but it seems tough get to where you can do it with speed and power. i wish i could remember the name of the kick.. but i think some muay thai guys incorporated it since it's not far off from the way they already do a lot of their kicking

You would make a great guest on Joe Rogan’s podcast!

He inspired Sagat. Years ago I was in a low class karate school. My sensei didn't give proper instructions for a side kick. Then I watched Sagat. O learned from a 2D Sprite based on a legend. Thank you Mr Sagat

The speed at which you pick up these teachers form corrections is testament to how much time you put in to your practice. It is not easy to change a habit or rewire a pathway of movement. Your mind is strong.

Love this style of striking. Old school. So accurate, relaxed and with all the power right on the end.

Thank you for this excellent video. It reminded me of my classes (about 20 years ago) where the instructor was teaching us about the importance of staying relaxed, economy of movements and using all the muscle groups (feet, legs, hip, waist, torso, shoulder & arm) to maximise the power.

his energy is amazing; looks like he truly loves teaching muay thai. i'd love to learn from him personally.

After you explained what he was telling you and I tried it there was a big difference in power with each technique. Thank you!!

Bruce Lee was years ahead of his time he always spoke on Economy of Movement. He would love kickboxing bcuz he was already doin it back then he believed every part of your body was a weapon and that you should be able to use your legs like you use your arms that you could use kicks like jabs. He was a one of a kind person a true pioneer and visionary of the Martial Arts and when I see Kickboxing and UFC it’s everything he spoke of using some of everything that works and not limiting ones self to a particular set of rules! Mixed Martial arts are the complete package tho bcuz it entails a mixture of everything and Bruce is the father of it bcuz no one thought like that before him. They didn’t even do full contact sparring but Bruce did with his students. Muay Thai is a beautiful and deadly art form and puts emphasis on economy of movement.

I will try to implement this even in my punches, never thought to do that with punches only kicks. Thanks again for amazing muay thai knowledge

Sagat is a legend... Trained with him in oz in the 90s when he came to fight pete cunningham

This was such an amazing session. Cant wait for every new video.

Great advice on raising your leg first then going sideways. I couldn't put my finger on how to do them better.

What a legend, absolute priviledge to see this private. Thank you.

Awesome! Definitely going to practice these this week

What an excellent video! Thank you so much for posting this, very informative, just awesome!

Awesome breakdown of the techniques and purposes. Thanks!

Thank you! I like the verbal assessment over this. This really helps a lot!

He actually makes sense. Lift the knee - pivot on the foot / literally the most efficient roundhouse. Not turning the punch over ( keep fist in neutral/external rotation thus stabilizing the shoulder joint.) and you get a harder punch.

This video is great. Thanks for taking the time to post it and to critique yourself as it played -- I learned some new tricks!

Your content is amazing! I’ve learned sooo much from you! Thank you!!

Amazing video Sylvie! definitely something I can learn and reflect on as well

Really appreciate this video. I'd switched over to ninja as I've aged, but had recently been missing MT and stumbled across your video. The explanations and breakdowns you gave are super informative and motivational as well. Thank you!

Fantastic video, full of knowledge, these are kind of drills which make people skillful

I love this. The way you explained what he is asking for is so simple and easy to dial in. I've heard all of these fundamentals for years but this is such a comprehensive breakdown that anyone of any muay thai level could benefit from.

This is amazing! Great fighters with knowledge that could have been lost, and you're documenting their insights. Subscribed and started a $5 monthly donation, thank you!

Very good video, lovely clear camera work and analysis.

Thank you for posting this videos ..learning a lot

Awesome comprehensive breakdown of the session. I have trouble with this, having come from a TKD by and moved to Muay Thai.

This is exactly what I’m working on lol I’m so grateful for these posts! They are amazing learning tools

Thank you Sylvie

I like the way you analyze the techniques and explain them. thanks for sharing and keep it up! :D

This is really interesting. Like your husband was saying this reminds me of an old karate concept of penetrating with strikes that's taught in certain styles. Whenever I first began boxing this was how I was taught to throw the cross or rear straight or whatever else you want to call it.

These videos are super insightful.

Beautiful break down of technical striking

This is very informative. Thank you! Please upload more of this.

Your vids have got me practicing MT again.

Great trainer. I had my doubts at first when she was using leg power only then the master corrects her. Great technique non telegraphic and hips into kick.

I really like his reactions when he is impressed!!

this is really awesome. Thanks

Great video! I had the same problem fixing my kick at Singpatong gym Phuket. Im able to throw the kick more freely now and i noticed im able to land more kicks now. Makes the world of a difference with this small change but there are many ways to throw a thai kick this is one way.

slowly catching up with all this content, but this one was really cool. thanks sylvie

Awesome fundamentals vid. Loved it.

Out of all the thais i like this guys style alot. Very scientific

Thank you for sharing 🙏🏾💕

Your muay thai is excellent and your show is also excellent.

amazing & inspirational , thank you

Good narrative ❤️

Very interesting! Thanks

Awesome video! Keep it up.

great video thanks!

Great videos, thank you

Your videos are awesome

those calves.....

This was dope! thank you!

Thanks for sharing video and narrator

Nice breakdown

this is GOLD

Very insightful love it

last bit.. your punch 'goes past the target' only because you are close. a simpler way to think of it is 'your body fully extends until you hit the target, then retract naturally' (i enjoyed the vid. thanks)

your commentary deserves a lot of merit.. so people are holding back from asking which part of the vid does he teach the tiger upper uppercut.

Very good video!

good coach, and good video thanks

How do you train with so many legends? These are the guys I watch film studies or, or classic matches.

That's what made him so dangerous and so feared. He makes it look so easy that I'm looking at it and I got the idea within 5 minutes.

Awesome video. Sagat is genius.

Good stuff i love it!

Awesome video.... I too observed this form of kicking is more powerful and hard to intercept

Aeesome! Thank you

Great video 👍👍

I dont usually see this way of striking in muaythai. When i transitioned to mma from muaythai my coach drilled the same thing into my and adjusted my striking completely. As a shorter fighter, you can definitely get the most of your range by staying within your frame (attacking through the centre line). Plus, it's safer when youre on the offence as well because your guard is not open so youre not vulnerable to counter attacks. Thanks for sharing this video sylvie. It's really insightful and it shows that this style of striking can also be used in Muay Thai :)

Awesome thank you good techniques

Saw Sagat's fight Videos, this guy is a Beast !!!

wow training with sagat awesome 👍

I dont quite get it yet but this is really good to see. Thanks for sharing this knowledge.

So cute they are!

You get to train with many top trainers and most seem to have their own ways of throwing certain strikes. Is it difficult to work with trainers that have varying methods of throwing the same strike? Additionally, do you find it challenging to incorporate everything together into a fight or sparring situation? (Regardless, it must be an amazing experience being able to work with these legends)

Nice form.

coincidentally i just watched a vid by joe valtellini on kicking upward like that, it works quite well with the distance covering shown here. You should check it out, i found i generate more speed/power his way ( ie, kinda like doing a calf raise with the lead foot when you kick. Vid explains it better)

grt video!

That's one thing I found when I trained there lol business is business but when training? They have fun with it!

Jack Dempsey would throw his punches that way too.

Hey Sylvie , love your vids (from Tahiti) ..I think Sagat is trying to show a different kind of strikes , more short and quick compared to usual charged strikes (heavy and strong but less speed) The difficulty here is not only the physical aspect of these strikes but the mental aspect and the vision

These are great insights! Thank you for sharing them!

This is amazing. Subd.

exactly right every technique when done right should have power behind it even short jabs and leg kicks.

Awesome

I remember learning from the golden era fighters to throw my kick straight up and then around. It’s so much faster. Modern gyms in the USA teach the worst way to use the roundhouse kick.

Bas Rutten 101. Twist from the hip instead of TKD chambering. Good call pointing that out

I wanna know how to do the Tiger kneeeeeee with the fire swooooooshhhhh

loving

What a legend

@0:59 Sagat showing footwork

Would be so awesome if you got a have a session with Buakaw

your both so passionate its beautiful

such a cool dude
