Review of session

Thai 6 count starts with lead round kick then cross hook elbow rear knee push away rear round kick!

Rear round kick defenses:

Cut kick (as opponent kicks with rear leg step of and lead round kick their standing leg)

Evade: move back and reply with round kick

Stop hit: as kick comes hit him with a cross (step and slide footwork to stop power of kick)

Stop kick; as stop hit but use your rear leg to kick his standing leg

Crush: Thai leg block make sure leg is at 90 degree angle

Catch: scoop round kick into crook of your arm pull it up to arm pit. Then step forward between his legs (keep hold of leg) watch him fall.

Various take downs:

Off jab:

Rear parry lead and eye strike, wrap arm, get close, grab shoulder and pivot to take down.

Duck jab and Body shot shoulder charge then grip lead leg with both thighs. Hug him into you as you straighten legs as he falls land on top of him in mount position.

Off cross;

Split entry then face hugger (palm on nose grab head and roll it back and down.) use their hand to push his back to bend it more so they land on their head!

Slip cross overhand then uppercut into arm break. Grab wrist sandwich grip and arm break their elbow over left shoulder, the twist under their arms and take down.
