In Thailand and other countries you learn to block a middle kick with your shin, in Holland you learn to block with you underarms because you can counter quickly with a lowkick.
Great video guys!! When throwing the middle kick, I would suggest to better put both arms up in protection, the one arm on the side of the kick is protecting while the opposite arm is countering, rather than put the glove on the elbow. There are two reasons for this, first kicking on the hand, even if protected by a thick boxing glove, is bad and might lead to a serious injury of the hand, second, while you are at it, it's better to condition your mind to instinctively do what it's supposed to do in a real fight, after all, you better condition your forearms to getting used to punishment. I have trained for ten years between 1990 and 2001 with some of the top legendary fighters like Ernesto Hoost, Rob Kaman, Ramon Dekkers, Robert "Bob" Schrijber, these to name just a few!!
Your safe. The blocking is diffrent from what I have learned in Holland. For defending a right middle kick. You put your left hand just like the instructor, put your righthand against your left elbow, just like the instructor but turn your wrist with your nails not towards your elbow, but pointing outside. Important is also to bow your knees a litte bit to stay compact, so your head and body is save after you block the middle kick. Perfect block to with a lowkick.
Hi guys, great instructional videos they've really helped to mix up my training and stop it from getting stale. Is there any chance of a video with some Dutch style/k1 bag drills or footwork for setting up kicks? Cheers from England :)
Nice video man. I am from Holland and trained for some time now at diffrent gyms in Holland. I have one commend about how you block the middle kick. That is not the way I have learned that in Holland. You basic of blocking the middle kick is also what I have learned, only you have to turn you wrist, so that you knuckels are towards you elbow.
The jab cross hook rear roundhouse Aka, "The Dutch Rush" combo is great! Are there any other common Dutch combos? Like maybe something finishing with a lead switch kick or something equal? J,C,H, Lk is very high percentage.
Solid work, technical and physical training done together and throwing in an element of the unknown (light sparring at the end).
Good job.

CoachArezki: London
nice one mate
interesting drill (I learned something)
just want to confirm. its not parrying but using gloves like pads?
The way you're blocking his kick would break your hand.
did they teach you dutch style oven?
Thanks mate, I'm not sure of the size of gloves mark is wearing. I am wearing 10oz
16
Didn't anyone notice the time on that clock moves backwards 0:39-0:44
He did mention that this isn't the way he would block in a real fight. so don't divert from the thai style! it is far superior.
