  • impressive, looks like your kicks are pretty hard? Id like to see in slow motion more about the footwork, thank you

  • Donnie you have roots in thailand :)

  • why don't you stretch your kicking leg?

  • Nice -I love the breakdown of these two kicks. The presentation is also great.

  • That's a powerful kick. How would you set it up in a street situation? Thanks

  • AHAHAHAHA..... All these dude commenting "OH I train too" Ya fuckin right u guys r POSERS and wannabe's Quit lying to your selvs...Nerds

  • ONe big question, why do you name them in English and not in Thai?

  • I love these training videos. Im not a fan of MMA fighting but I love the old muay thai.

  • donnie! have you heard of the RLSH? real life superheroes? man you should team up wid em, wid or widout a costume, i bet you would be a good man on duty helpin people not just by giving the needy what they need but teach them to defend themselves! :D

  • Those kicks are so 100% beast. People who don't expect them simply crumble under them because they simply cannot see how a leg kick is going to deliver that much power. I have seen that with a lot of kickboxers that came over to look into Muay Thai. They took a lot from those classes into the ring.

  • Completely amazing videos.... all of them. I, without doubt, need to train with you folks! Looks like I need to move back to Campbell! LOL

  • dude your form is solid thanks forr being so verbally clear

  • looks like bas ruttens kicking style

  • Umm found this tony Jaa video and was wondering if the kick at 3:17 is a driving kick. watch?v=r6I6ynT3bJQ thats the link. let me know what you think. Its a bit high and his leg is straight but it sure does seem like he driving it.

  • 6 people don't think they would be dropped by that kick......

  • Wtf? Bent at the knee?

  • great tutorial thankyou sir.

  • Donnie, you are so awesome! greatings from Denmark. :)

  • @Pullmylong Thanks man!

  • @whotookdonnierules Can u help me ? i used to do the round house kick in a very powerful manner , the bag would like go diagonal , it was so powerful , but latley , ive lost power , i kick hard , but not as hard as i used to , i twist my ankle before i hit the bag , swing my arms , throw my hip , what am i possibly doing wrong ?

  • I want to train under you so bad!!! I train in ring style muay thai but iv'e ALWAYS wanted to learn old school muay thai. Do you know a good place to learn some muay boran here in nor-cal/bay area?

  • @DOOKITdookit We're actually located in Santa Clara - right off the 101. Google Muay Thai Academy International - Donnie-

  • @whotookdonnierules what styles have you've been exposed to>?

  • @roycesboy I'm actually striking with my shin (ideally the upper half of the shin)

  • u guys r in cali?

  • @kimimarokekegenkai We're in Santa Clara (Silicon Valley).

  • thanx for the advice mma leg kicks r waterd down this is how it should b done!

  • feel sorry for n e mugger who tries to steal his wallet

  • Thanks for the quick reply. I can't really explain why but I keep getting drawn back to your posts. I really love training (7 years) and watching(20yrs) Muay Thai. I have seen a lot of Muay Thai and to me your technique is very nice but the power you seem to generate from your kicks is what keeps me coming back. Anyway, I was interested in the RED heavy bag STAND, not the heavy bag? Where can I get one? Keep up the great work, thanks.

  • Who is/was Donnie's Kru/instructor? Where can I buy the red triangular heavy bag stand? how much does that cost?

  • @phatyokozuna I trained under Kru Suaan Nirmalya Bhowmick, co-founder of the USMTA . We bought the heavy bag from a Pakistani reseller out of los angeles, whose name has escaped me right now. I know the price depends upon the wight of the bag, but it's not that bad. It's the logistics that get ya.

  • @whotookdonnierules - Has this been your only teacher for the muay thai discipline or have there been more. What about any other styles, any training there.

  • Man I would die if you kicked me.

  • @PaintTheSilence94 mass and velocity, that equation and you got force.

  • nice kick,s where can i find your,e muay thai school??

  • fresh

  • Grande!!! la maglia di Maldini!!!

  • how can you think this is good .... sure the kicks are "powerfull" but the technique are i just awful - anybody can see the kicks commin a mile away

  • You do litle jump for kick and you use all bady for this kick that because kick powerful Nice jab ! i wanna training in your school or somthing ! xD

  • you are good man

  • no wonder my mentor kicks differently..nice kix bro. I want to learn that

  • @whotookdonnierules i was moving with your video and i almost kicked my bro's xbox360 *whoops* can you be my online mentor plz???

  • lethal lethal...real dangerous

  • oh cmon, this is... nevermind..

    im so very surprised everybody likes this

  • oh cmon, this is... nevermind..

  • i love these videos. awesome dude well done

  • if u kick like that your enemy going to block your legs because is slow and your kick is powerful but the kick u just did is punching, order to get your enemy hurts is kick hard also put back quickly.

  • lol if he doesn't get out of the way just BLAST him.

  • i dont knw much about muy thai, but by the way he moves i can tell he's a beast

  • Hey Donnie can i ask you something? What type of round kick does Jose Aldo throw? Look him if you don't know but im curious because he kicks very hard. Hes the WEC champion because of his excellent striking skills. Thanks in advance

  • i wish i was as good as him :) he seems such an expert in this

  • Frankie Edgar uses driving leg kick excellently in 4th round of his recent championship defense against BJ Penn (UFC).

    He sets it up with a quick hand feint and switches lead leg to throw it.

  • Frankie Edgar uses driving leg kick excellently in 4th round of his recent championship defense against BJ Penn (UFC).

  • do you straiten the leg upon impact? Because i heard that when the leg is bent it has more give to it, therefore it saps power

  • Ever stepped into the ring?

  • You're kinda jumpy, you must be all hopped up on muay thai lol. You kick damn hard, that looks very effective in a street encounter, you could probably disable your opponent with one leg kick!

  • Comment removed

  • I have seem some mma fighters use this and it is effective. The second kick is what we call in american kick boxing a chop kick. Both are effective but they must be thrown when your opponent is getting tired. I teach this kick to some of my more advanced students and it does work. We keep our hands in front and jab after the kick is delivered. Great stuff

  • needs to take out the blahblahblah -blah -blah at the end, it's like wow, nice kicks + power then AAARRRGGGHHH

  • where is this guys gym located?

  • Donnie,I learn a lots from your video.i'm finding some places for me to train or maybe a master could guide me.i'm going australia soon.Do you have any suggestion that which place i could go?it's at melbourne.please reply me at my e-mail if you're free...i rarely comment in youtube,your video is suggested from my friend,thanks for posting and i waitting for your reply if you could help me..thanks...

  • i cant seem to get my kick down.. im doing old stile kicks. still need some work.

  • Nice shirt Donnie ;)

  • good stuff

  • Donnie, i have been trying to find a heavy bag stand...saw the one in your videos with the A frames on the ends...are you happy with it? where did you get it?

  • I like to do the old style kick because fights tend to get very close range quickly

    and you can combo the kick with 2-3 punches, and it is enough to take a person down.

    punch punch , short kick to the ribs, - if that doesnt work, just grab a bat

  • Donnie, I love this move and tried it. I'm supposed to hit with my upper shin, right? But it hurts a lot because I'm not hitting with my bone, but the muscles around it... Does it mean that my shin needs more conditioning or that I am not doing it wrong?

    Thanks!

  • One issue I have with some of the kicking techniques Donnie shows is the "center line" step he teaches. Your kicks, as we are taught, should step and move you off center line. The straight line step he shows will always lose out to a right cross.

  • Donnie, is Krabi Krabong the original art from old Thailand (Siamese) and all other arts that followed from this like Mauy Baron and Leidrit?

  • Donnie is very good with this Leidrit style. It would work in sport or street but you need to have your shins hardened. Donnie open up a Leidrit school people would join.

  • MMA guys dont just throw the leg. In regards to you saying you should kick with a bent leg - that's not what they told me in Thailand. The straight leg is for more power and speed and it hurts more. They say "You want to hit with bat or rope?", plus the bent knee acts like a spring, it absorbs the kick. The straight leg is locked and goes through the leg like a bat, the pivot and hip motion is the most important thing in the kick - the leg is the final part in a long equation.

  • @xanthicflex

    When properly analyzing the analogy of your leg acting like a baseball bat, don't omit the use of the arms to swing the bat. In short, using the bent leg (like your arms and hands holding the bat) to then straighten the leg generates more power.

  • oh i fiorgot something be aware and take care if you kick the kneee of your oponent and if your shin is not strong u cant gonna flight good anymore and is more than sure that your opponent will destroy u hahaha well apart of this everything of that kick is good

  • nice low kick haha we use a lot of these at the muay thai sparrins also u can make it in the musles and the midle of the body hursttt like hell see you

  • How can anyone doubt the leidrit style? You guys are idiots. This isn't boxing or karate, it's Muay Thai. Does karate or boxing allow elbows and knees, no. These kicks are meant for the street and survival not for a sport. Karate never taught anyone how to survive but only discipline. The driving kick is an effect way to stop an opponent and beat them or get away.

  • It's a mystery to me how you can critisize this technique, when it obviously works. Look how fast and powerful this kick is, not to mention the fact that he is bursting in from far out - in one fluid movement - which will totally catch any opponent off guard. I'm not doubting this for a second.

  • your bending your right knee to much your gonna hurt yourself if get someone with strong legs as your opponent

  • @moraisvendeta

    Told you I would investigate what you told me about!

    Peace

  • @44rumblefish YEE what do you think about it ??

    Peace man

  • What I'm wondering is why would you open up the hips with the foot pivoted out when you land before throwing the kick? I can see how yes, that does give the attacking leg more leeway to rotate along the hip, but shouldn't the opening of the hip be used as part of the whole movement and not separated?

  • Why do you bend your right leg so much when you throw that kick ? No power generated, you must split the kick between a snap and a push, yours is just a push with the upper shin while your leg is bent. Also 1:55, I wouldn't recommend this... if your opponent is good at timing, he'd throw a long cross while you're half way towards him.

  • @mindtrix00 I partly agree with you, actually mostly I agree with you. The pushing roundhouse can however create a ton of power, on the other senses I couldn't have said it better than yourself.

  • yeah if ur good at timing that could happen ita a very strong strike its not a jab ull do back and forth its a f painful kick u seek for the moment to aplly the technique

  • WACK

  • if you pause at the right moment during the kick the motion blur is so bad you can't even see his foot, his shin just disappears in the air. Now that's a fucking fast kick!

  • lol the guard is gonna cry XD

  • my instructer teaches me to low kick like sagat where you crouch and kick at the same time it seems powerful

  • ROFL

  • Comment removed

  • @partner93630 your instructor teaches you to kick like a fictional character from a computer game?

  • come on donnie b, when you demonstrated the regular muay thai kick you didn't do it justice

  • Yea, MTK takes every last bit of breath out of me.

  • thanks donnie!

  • your videos are great donnie, the only thing i don't really like is the flower technique. it looks really effective, but getting the element of surprise at that close a range can be difficult when going up against a wannabe brawler who will just swing randomly. in street situations, just sticking with kicking techniques like this might be better. that or some of the climbing techniques like "Hanuman Hern Vae Ha" and "Pra Ram Yeab Long Ga". you should do those if you haven't already bro : P

  • Hmm this is actually what my Muay Thai teacher teaches me to do in alot of circumstances.

  • omg,this is so hard,im a fucking noob,i just barely got into this shit and it is pretty tiring,i only know punching techniques......no kickin...AGH!!KICKING IS SO HARD!!

  • For Muay-Thai one of the best times to learn technique is when your totally exhausted and you think you cannot continue. If you're diaphragm isn't hurting by the end of class then kick, punch, push harder next time. Switch up your partner to someone who will help push you and tell them to do it. Tell him/her each time you drop your hands or you take to long to strike they should be hitting you hard with no mercy. I "used" to drop my hand I was told 5x not to then I got a hook to the face.

  • dude i train at a damn MT school, and they have never explained a low kick as well as you just did. I noticed the pad was on the front of the leg instead of the side, mentally are you aiming for the front of the leg with the bent leg low kick? Call me a noob, Im coming from boxing and this shit is still foreign haha.

  • Hey..well i aint him but i think i can answer that?if you dont mind?The pad is on the front because its a driving low kick rather than just a low kick...the aim is to take ur opponent straight down rather than the usual sweep trip motion....get?P.s..it must really SUCK to be this dude's training partner coz ... damn!!!

  • not bad!!

  • your techniques look flawless

  • yeah F**kin A man

  • hes such a good teacher,im a Enshin karateka.

  • i like that guy, he has alot of energy and really goes in depth.

  • @afrosk8er That's exactly what I was thinking...he's energetic...easy to keep attention on him...heh

  • I love the last example of the dtae. It flows so brilliantly!! Nice demo Donnie.

  • Hoooly shit that looks brutal. I bet the guy felt as if the cushion was pretty useless

  • Great technique, but I think that you got the "names" mixed up a little. Thais throw the "old-style way," which is keeping the leg straight. The "new-school" is bent, because it came from Netherlands, where their kickboxing had a lot of karate influences.

  • can you tell me why kicking with a bent knee gives you more power ?

  • You have more force to follow through with. The same thing applies when you punch. You have more power when your elbow is slightly bent rather than extended all the way out because the force is building up and when you land it, it has more room to chanel it through. It's kind of like stepping in with your strikes.

  • it doesnt, it just allows more rotation within the hips whilst executing the dtae strike

  • hey donnie can i be ur buddy? i love ur tutorals, I am curently learning muay thai boran and i admire your skills

  • does this donnie compete? if so, does he these techs?

  • how can i train under you..... you are probably one of the only people on you tube to go more old school then new school...

    great techniques

  • Donnie is an animal folks. Honored to be under the tutilage of this guy~

  • thanks Guy.

  • @whotookdonnierules just to inform you in ancient muay boran the move that you said ring fighters use is called cut and the one you like is called the chop

  • @whotookdonnierules but beautiful kick though

  • Enjoying the clips, short and sharp with good explainations. Would like to see an old style clinch and a few more techniques.

    Cheers
