Technical Kickboxing Classes in NYC: Muay Thai, Dutch & Savate

Kickboxing, as it is practiced today, primarily involves punches and kicks. However, it actually encompasses a variety of combat and martial arts techniques, which may include the use of elbows, knees, shins, headbutts, and throws. While kickboxing is mainly a stand-up fighting system, it does not prioritize striking over ground combat. The specific techniques used can vary depending on the style of kickboxing being practiced. Some examples include Muay Thai, Dutch Style Kickboxing, Savate, American Kickboxing, and full-contact kickboxing.

• Muay Thai: Elbows and knees (The Art of Eight Limbs).
• Dutch Style: Explosive punch-to-kick combinations.
• Savate & American: Precision footwork and long-range striking.
