Landing clean high kicks in Muay Thai is often about creating the opening first.

In this clip taken during one of his many amazing seminars at my gym in Manchester, legendary Muay Thai champion Yoddecha Sityodtong demonstrates one way to strip an opponent’s guard before firing a hard traditional high kick, using the kind of setup seen at elite level in Thai stadium fighting.

Yoddecha is a multiple-time Muay Thai world champion, King’s Cup winner, former Lumpinee Stadium No.1 ranked fighter and one of the most respected instructors to come from the legendary Sityodtong camp. He has competed for over 25 years and built a reputation for technical precision and devastating traditional Muay Thai.
