Every once in a while I hear about Muay Thai techniques that are not allowed in the ring. Is this true and if so what are they?

 

P.S. I know that elbows are not allowed in many matches in the US but i am talking about other techniques.

Headbutts are taught in Muay Thai (places that don't just do sprt Muay Thai). Also, we learn locks, chokes and throws. Groundwork is really limited to just a couple of chokes and locks but a ton of striking drills. The emphasis is to break your opponent, and break them fast.

 

 

oooooooo.....

 

I gets all tingly like when Ken talks mean like that!

Does anybody know of any good books or videos that teach these out of ring techniques?

 

 

well I wouldn't know any good books or videos but you would have to go on the net and serch for a site in your area of books and then could buy it.

 

well if you go to muay thai class well you could ask the trainer there for some and if not go to a class if want to learn something or get better if you got that.

 

also I thought cheap take down attacks well it depends how old you are and how the compititions are

 

oh well you could look at previews topics in here maybe that will help

If you get a chance, attend a Master Chai (Sirichai Surisute) or Guro Dan Inosanto seminar. You'll be sure to learn plenty of "illegal" techniques.

 

 

Ken do you know of any books or videos that will show these techniques. I highly dought i will ever be able to attend either of those seminars because of lack of money and time.
