Mae Mai Muay Thai

[Mistassailant5]

I was just wondering if anyone knew of any website or video series, et cetera that goes over the basics of Mae Mai Muay Thai. Thanks.

Mae mai techniques are the basics of Muay Thai.

I'm presuming that by mae mai techniques you are refering to movements with names such as: salab fan pla, pak luke dtoy and jorakay fad hang.

Be aware that not every teacher will teach the movements exactly the same. Think of them as the kata of Muay Thai and consider the movements to be concepts rather than fixed movements.

One of my teachers in Thailand only teaches three mae mai techniques which are really only stances and guards. The rest of the techniques which have the same names and look similar to other teachers' styles are all refered to as look mai techniques.

There are lots of films on You Tube or you could have a look at my website for my thoughts on this and some links. But unfortunately I can't give you my web address on here. Just look in my profile for it.
