There are atleast 9 kinds of straight knee style in muaythai. 1.เข่าตรง ตีนำ(khao-trong-tee-num)=(lead straight knee) 2.เข่าตรง ตีตาม(khao-trong-tee-tam)=(follow straight knee) 3.เข่าตรง(khao-trong)=(straight right knee) 4.เข่าเฉียง(khao-cheang)=(oblique knee) 5.เข่าโค้ง(khao-kong)=(curve knee) 6.เข่าตัด(khao-tud)=(cross knee) 7.เข่าลอย(khao-loi)=(flying knee) 8.เข่าโหน(khao-hone)=(hung knee) 9.เข่ากระโดดเหยียบ(khao-kra-dod-yeab)=(stomping knee) I think the kickboxing knee in muaythai they called "khao-trong" which is mean straight right knee. And the second style knee in the video in muaythai they called "khao-tud" which is mean cross knee. Thanks Shane.
Love seeing Shane happy while teaching truly a passionate striking trainer. Makes me realise why I picked Kickboxing because I am as passionate as him and look up to him
Muay Thai was the father of kickboxing, so therefore the Dutch style knee is just a variation of muay thai knee, the stabbing knee of the Dutch style also exists in Muay Thai.
@@euroschlucker traditional Karate styles like shotokan etc are still traditional karate styles, whereas kyokushin karate and other full contact styles evolved into Japanese style kickboxing and then american long pants kickboxing-benny the Jet etc, often not allowing low kicks and also requiring a certain number of kicks per round. Muay Thai pre-dates these styles by around 300 years! And as for TKD? All the kicks are from karate! And all karate styles originate from Okinawa! Okinawan Karate is basesd on chinese kung Fu! If you follow this long enough you'll disappear up your own ASS! there's no perfect technique! Don't fear the man who knows a thousand different kicks, fear the man who has practiced one kick, a thousand times.
Tim Ahad relax dude damn. It’s not that serious. Karate is the father of modern Kickoxing in the west. No one outside of southeast asia even had an idea of what Thaiboxing was until the 60’s.
I feel like muay thai generaly focuses more on one solid strike at a time and not more than 2 strike combos, and kickboxing tends to be more combo oriented.
@@Wall_enjoyer traditional muay thai has the guys set up one good kick or a gard punch, lerdsila or buakaw, actual legends use that style but outside thailand you got strikers like wec aldo,barbosa who set up for a huge kick with not to many punches,but the flurrys and combos are more common in kickboxing and in the west, (like condit,felder,hooker)
@@Kali-8 Teakwondo by it self its very usless in combat sports What is very interesting is that there now mma fighters using this style and mixing it up with other styles for example look at Yair Rodriguez from ufc ....
@@ozzi1113 well i dont know much about it but i know that it has some dangerous kicks, and i as a former martial artist and now kickboxer dont feel very confident against those
@@Kali-8 Flashy kicks are usually the end of those who attempt them in a real fight. Distance management is almost impossible when you're turning your entire body and executing a flashy kick on a moving opponent. Add to that the fact that its usually not hidden and is just one strike which means its easily catchable and countered, it also lacks the speed of going through your guard because you see the entire movement before it hits you, so you simply either back away or defend yourself. If executed properly and hidden well, they can be very dangerous, but that is usually not the case because the martial arts who teach those kinds of kicks do not have mandatory sparring in their classes or any sparring in general which turns the students into acrobats not fighters. They can look good but cannot fight at all. You can rarely see fighters executing taekwondo kicks properly in a fight, and when you see them, they always have a background in Muay thai or kickboxing as well, which is where they learn how to fight, then later teach themselves how to implement their taekwondo kicks in their fight game.
fightTIPS I like the Muay Thai knee. To me it feels more fluid. I’m not knocking the Dutch style, but I just feel more comfortable throwing a Thai style knee
@@jasonw293 it depends on range and strikes. When i did a combo round strikes the round knee is better. But after long straight strikes the straight knee feels better. My myanmar teacher lone chaw was very good in straight hard punches with long knee. My dutch teacher joop gottmers is beter in round striking a bit like ramon dekkers style. So its a style issue. They both are good teachers by the way that manage other strikes as well. I mix up the knees a bit of both.
Very good observation on that in the dutch-style we work a lot with body and hips rotation. I noticed it recently (after 10 months of training :D) and remembering that really helps me with combinations: left, right, left, right... I guess it might make the fighter a bit more predictable?... But for me, an amateur, more focused on learning for self-defense, I feel it makes my punches and kicks much better.
Both style are within Muay Thai Knee style ! Muay Thai Knee are various such Strait Knee, Diagonal Knee, Cutting Knee, Scratch Knee, Curve Knee, Throw Knee,Swing Knee, Head Lock Knee, Body Lock Knee, Fly Knee, Hit Down Knee.
Great video. I love the dutch flow and how they utilise them in fast combinations. However the Thai knee is so deadly when they drive it through your soul 😂
Im glad i found ur channel coach I've been watching u for 4 years and the last 4 week i was doing that solo mma workout it really effective and thank u coach for helping us 🇩🇿❤️

I’d Love to see you talk about the different knees and elbows. I feel like I’m a lot of videos they’re over looked and never talked about as much as kicks and punches.
Great video man! I love the knee cross combo in kickboxing it always covers the knee effectively. Also the different applications of the knee are very interesting.. looking forward to being able to practice these soon :)
My Thai cousin uses thai clinch for 2 rounds and he uses his knees and aim for the inner thigh. After watching this technique I scratching my head what the purpose and then it struck me. Being hit constantly in your inner thigh causes your kicks to be useless on the later 3rd 4th and 5th round. Our family-side is slightly bow-legged so it's rare style in Muay Thai Bouts. Great Vid!
Understood the techniques pretty well. Just a request, Lyoto machida sensei throws a counter knee. It happens in a split second. Can you please break it down?
I mean..Muay thay have at least 6 type of knee strike (Throng, chiang, khong and a lot more). Kick boxing just steal them, and it's k, that's how martial arts works
The main difference in knee trajectory is probably due to striking distance. You are not allowed to clinch in kickboxing, so you usually either have distance between you and opponent or they break you up. As a result, you often have to break distance in kickboxing to get a knee in, while avoiding a counter punch. In Maui Thai you can hug as long as your heart desires:) Knees and elbows are usually their close range weapons and are performed from the clinch (much closer distance than in kickboxing). Since there is not as much room to wind up the knee, or you get them in the balls if you try going point A to point B style, you get the knee up first and then use the hips to drive the knee forward. In street fight, a combination of these is probably best. Get the clinch, grab onto your opponent, pull on him, do kickboxing style of knee straight into the groin. P.S never done it to anyone and hopefully never will ))) Thanks for the video!
Actually you are allowed to clinch in kickboxing, depending on the rule set. We have 3 main rule sets. Classic rules: no clinch, no knees, no low kicks. Modern low kicks: allows low kicks, but no clinch or knees. Kickboxing (k-1 rules): clinching, knees to the body, and low kicks are allowed.
It's not that you're being taught wrong. It's just a different take on the technique. I most commonly hear it referred to as the "slap knee". That's a very useful way to minimize injury if you're working with a heavy bag or a harder target. It is also better in sparring because you won't injure your partner. But if you're in a real fight you should most definitely drive the knee directly into the target. You deal more damage with bone than with muscle. And a human body wouldn't be hard enough to truly damage your knee unless you bang knees with the opponent.
Darius Grady Yeah sounds about right. I mostly just do pad sessions and was told to use the inside of the knee in like a swinging to the outside and into the side of the body but wasn’t told if it was the correct technique in a real fight. Thanks for the feedback 👍
You also see that style of knee in Muay Thai but it's usually in a clinch and strikes the sides. It's more for taking the wind out of an opponent (which gets amplified with how exhausting clinching for a while gets) than raw damage and has a shorter range than a more linear knee. Since Shane was talking about long knees we're in the domain of linear knees.
honestly a big fan of a hybrid style. trapping the hands but then instead of pulling them down into the knee, i pull my arms back to really torque into the knee. that’s the style that i find to be best against all sized opponents as well as most capable of offensive or defensive
that being said, the twist of the hips to turn my leg out is dependent on their reactions. if they shell then i go straight but if they try to back out then i turn out so need be i can still hit with a round kick. it’s abt just touching them, gotta make them doubt themselves.
Try resistance bands. I still get pain in the knee I tore my meniscus and ACL reconstruction. Bands are gentler on the knees, help increase strength, and improve range of motion. That's my experience and what has worked long term.
@@juradis1 i had the same problem and the foam roller helped a lot but if it still continues then of cause they should see a doctor stop being such a neek
😱 *WHEN WILL MY BOB EVOLVE TO HAVE LITTLE NUBS?* Lol great video as always dude 💪 my channel was partially insipired by yours. I just hit my first 700 subscribers. Doesnt sound like alot but i cant imagine teaching a class of 700 people in person 😂. Keep up the great work!
Could we see some videos of your archery practice? It was interesting to hear the analogy in the your punches still suck video. Plus it is still technically a martial art
Thanks for addressing the stress on the lower back. Out of all the strikes in my Muay Thai repertoire, knees are the hardest on my body despite my enjoyment throwing them.
the k1 knee is better in defense when the opponent advances at u (which adds more power to the knee) especially with punch combinations and the Muay Thai knee is better to use in a more offensive and aggressive way. that's my vision :)
Hi Shane, could you do a video on how you film your videos and how to film training footage good. I think it’d help people trying to build their social media by having better bag/training footage.
amazing video, i have a very basic question: is knee allowed in kickboxing? as i have seen on google its not allowed. could you please clear up my confusion. thankyou
