Muay Mat Development (diary entry)

09.01.2024 My second lesson of the day brought my client onto hour five of their Muay Thai course. We have been looking at different styles and the main one we have studied is that of the muay mat. Tonight I decided to put a greater emphasis on live training. Dividing our sections up into 2 minute rounds we covered the following

1. Low protection full Muay Thai rules flow sparring (very light)

2. Foot-stepping sparring - teaching forward pressure

3. Ditto with a restriction on only using lead foot to rear foot and vice versa

4. Low kicks only against evasions and checking

5. Body shots only

6. Head shots permitted but only body shots score

7. Head shots and low kicks only and only low kicks score

8. Heads shots, body shots and low kicks, but full point is only awarded for a combination that includes both a body shot and low kick

9. Muay mat versus muay femur sparring

10. Muay mat pad-work with belly and leg pads for autonomous striking.
