York Muay Thai - Authentic Muay Thai School

Are your partner’s kicks lacking that “thud”? It might not be their technique... it might be your pad holding

Kru David explains that holding “soft” or floating pads is like hitting a wet blanket

By bracing the pad against your body for low or medium kicks and creating a rigid structure for the body, you provide the kinetic feedback needed to actually develop power

Kru David explains that a bad pad holder is essentially like a terrible relationship

if the communication isn’t there, the whole thing falls apart fr

A great pad holder provides that “kinetic feel” that turns a standard workout into a technical learning session

At York Muay Thai, we focus on building that connection so every strike has purpose

To wrap up the session, Ajahn Burklerk takes a participant through another high-speed drill, refining the timing of the catch and counter

He recognizes that in a live fight, you only have a split second to react, so he prioritizes the fluid “catch-turn-kick” sequence we’ve been drilling

Key teaching: don’t lead with the weapon, lead with your body first

Turn foot before throwing elbow - hitting with elbow before foot turns means no body weight behind it. What’s the point of speed without rotation?

Timing weapon with footwork and body rotation generates power

PCK Ilir explaining the complete picture behind the drill setup. Landing distance after kicks matters strategically - too far and they leg kick you back, just far enough and they want to throw hands at you

Range work: find appropriate distance where you don’t need excessive stepping to feel the power. Grounded power first, movement second. Stay upright with head tucked - don’t lean in getting dinked

Individual correction on where to land after kicking. PCK Ilir teaching: land square and slightly back, not retreating too far. Foot follows same line out and back, returns a bit behind start position

Over-retreating creates vulnerability - you get hit moving out. Controlled small retreat lets you still check kicks if opponent closes.

Landing square keeps defensive positioning intact. Small technical adjustment with practical defensive application
