In the morning, we see many people exercising, with the largest proportion being middle-aged and elderly people, followed by young people, and fewer children. Children usually exercise in the afternoon or on weekends, and will participate in many skill training classes, including martial arts training, such as Muay Thai. Muay Thai is a martial arts sport with boxing as the main body. Muay Thai training also requires footwork, leg techniques, etc., so that it can be practiced well. So how can children practice Muay Thai well? 1. Muay Thai boxing techniques The punches in Muay Thai are basically the same as those in boxing, and can be divided into straight punches, hook punches, and swing punches, etc. It’s just because Muay Thai introduced boxing techniques from boxing. Now let’s analyze the right straight punch and left hook as examples. Taking the left straight punch as an example, the left foot is in front and the right foot is behind. 1. Right straight punch: The method is to push the ground with the right foot, twist the body sharply to the left, and punch straight forward with the right fist. As the body twists and the feet push forward, the right punch is thrown with great power and speed. 2. Left hook: The method is to sharply turn the hip and shoulder to the right, and slightly raise the left elbow. Hit the target in an arc. Special emphasis is placed here on twisting the body to the right while using the forefoot of the left foot as the axis and rotating the heel outward, so that the left fist can produce a whipping effect, like a bullet being fired. 2. Muay Thai Kick Techniques Muay Thai leg techniques are divided into kicking and kicking. The use of twisting the body is particularly full of display, making Muay Thai's hand and foot techniques flexible and varied, combining hardness with softness. 1. Kicking skills: Take the right sweep kick as an example. The method is to lift the right foot, twist the body to the left, use the forefoot of the left supporting leg as the axis, rub the ground with the heel and rotate inward to coordinate with the body twisting to the left, and hit the target in an arc with the right leg, with the force reaching the instep and tibia. Special emphasis is placed here on twisting the body to the left and internal rotation of the supporting heel to make the body coordinated. 2. Kicking technique: Taking the right leg kick as an example, the method is to lift the right knee to the same height as the chest, twist the body slightly to the left, use the forefoot as the fulcrum and rotate the heel inward, and push the right foot forward. The supporting foot is shaped like a sweeping leg, with a slightly smaller range of rotation. 3. Muay Thai Knee Technique Muay Thai knee techniques are divided into rushing knee, bent knee, piercing knee, piercing knee and flying knee. The most famous one is the neck-holding and knee-strike. Now take the right knee rush as an example: the method is to lift the left supporting heel and rotate it inward, twist the body to the left, use the left foot to push the ground, rotate the heel inward, twist the body to the left, and coordinate to make the right knee rush forward and upward, with the force reaching the tip of the knee. The supporting foot is like the sweeping leg, but with a smaller amplitude. 4. Muay Thai Elbow Technique Muay Thai elbow techniques are divided into flat elbow, forced elbow, smashing elbow, covering elbow, reverse elbow, double elbow, etc. Now take the left flat elbow as an example. The method is to raise the left arm, bend the elbow and make it level with the shoulder. Use the forefoot of the left foot as a fulcrum and abduct the heel. Twist the body to the right, rotate the right heel inward, and strike the left elbow forward in an arc, with the force reaching the tip of the elbow. How can children practice Muay Thai well? To practice Muay Thai well, you must follow the relevant methods and master many footwork techniques. It takes many years to practice Muay Thai well. Those who have no intention of participating in competitions can treat it as a way to exercise their bodies. When Muay Thai reaches a certain level, they can participate in competitions and eventually achieve their goals. For children, Muay Thai is mainly for physical exercise, but it can also improve independence, teamwork, and keenness. |
