Just getting back into the sports after a long period of being de-trained. I recently turned 44 and it has been since i was 28 that i practised any form of martial arts. Now i still got the techniques in my head, but no longer in my body. My youngest son recently saw an old video of me when i was in my late teens training Muay Thai & taekwondo and now he wants me to teach him. He's autistic and the few clubs where i live unfortunatly are not eager to accept him. Mainly because he's only 8 and he's not so comfortable with crowds and his motor skills are not so well developed. So i decided to get back to the basics myself and see if i can train him, at least until he's comfortable enough and confident enough to train with other people in the club. This video is helping me help my son, so thank you for this, truely.
This post made me so happy, you're a great person ! Good luck !!
@@mitchellpalacio5069 Thank you for those kind words. I try to be.
Good luck bro. ❤️
Good luck to you and your boy 💪🏼
Good luck sir.ur a great father👨👦
This channel is criminally underrated
But you guys are helping it grow. So thank you 🙏
@@GabrielVargaOfficial you seem like a good guy Varga.

@@GabrielVargaOfficial Mr Varga I have a quick question for you. Are you a fan of Sanda/San Shou??
@@GabrielVargaOfficial what's your favorite body shot
@@derek6817 I'd imagine yes. It's very similar to Muay thai/kickboxing
Recently quit the gym I was going to. This video is an exemplary example why. You taught me more in a effective manner in 20 minutes, than I have learned my past year there. They are a competitive gym too. Actively competing in tournaments & the such. Unfortunately its the only gym in my area. But everything is so political & divisive, that it gets in the way of learning. Ill be competing in a IKF event January 7th. I have a small home gym that me & a couple buddies train & spar in. Videos like this are worth more than you could ever possibly imagine. Thank you

Very much appreciated.
I like the way you are repeatedly saying that things can be done differently... I really agree. There is no best style. But there is a style that really works for you!
Awesome. I'm glad you agree.
Not every gym has that mentality. I think it's important to let your students pick and choose different styles and techniques.
I mean, some thing are clearly just wrong. But aside from those there are many variations on doing things right.
@@GabrielVargaOfficial truth. The instructor at the muay Thai gym I went to use to give me shit for kicking karate style instead of muay Thai style (trained karate and tkd for 10 years so it was more natural). I ended up using Thai style for leg kicks but I find my karate style faster for body and head kicks. Also find having the 2 styles of kicking throws people off in sparring as they have different ranges and timing.
FINALLY SOMEONE GIVING A DETAILED EXPLAINATION ON FORM. So many videos just show the punch without explaining its done righ and wrong.... either way time to untrain some bad habits...
Thanks Gabriel, I Really Appreciate You Giving Away The Free Game That Most Won’t! Much Love
amen
Man, 4 years of gym training compressed in a 20'min video. Amazing! Great video!
When you realize you didn't know how to box before your match tomorrow:
How went the match?
Same Condition
Want to start kickboxing this summer for my own confidence and protection and simply because I’ve always wanted to do a fighting sport but never had the opportunity. I’m 21 so might be a bit old to start but I’ve got the spirit to so hopefully that’ll make up for my age. This video was very informative thankyou.
I started kickboxing and had my first class about 7 hours ago, and it felt SO GOOD!
I'm excited to continue my training outside the gym to strengthen my skills.
So is there any Update
Any updates? I'm 14 and looking to get into kickboxing and that whole combat sports realm after a few years of inactivity, How's your journery going?
@@ironicrbx it's been going GREAT! I have POTS and struggle with depression, but my symptoms for both have lessened greatly.
And it makes me better focused in my business too.
Starting kickboxing was one of the best decisions I could've made for my overall wellness.
I wish you all the best with restarting!
@@catstickler That is really good to hear
@@catstickler I have dysautonomia! And I’m taking MMA kickboxing also. Just got my 3rd stripe on high white. One more and I can test for blue belt. My POTS has improved, still have some lightheadedness and the occasional bout of palpitations. But I’m amazed at how much stronger I have become, and how much fun I’m having!
What’s crazy is if you dream of fighting and try the moves you’ll figure this stuff out. Thank you.
as someone who literally just had their first ever kickboxing class yesterday and wanted to get some fundamental information, this was awesome. Thank you!
This is a great, concise video. You covered a lot of ground in minutes while demonstrating very effectively.
No harm has come to anyone for going back to the basics.
No one has achieved mastery in any field without a solid foundation.
Fundamentals are as defined.
Your channel is literally gold and I learn so much from every video thank you Gabriel
Happy to hear that!
I love sharing what I've learnt.
Bro you can’t imagine how helpful that was, now that I’ve learned the basics now I can just practice until I become good, but the problem is that i go to the gym, I train to become a bodybuilder and that doesn’t let me go to a professional training kickboxing classes, thank you 🙏
Do kickboxing. It’s natural.( 95%😂)
I really learned from this video, specially about defense, how to counter the roundhouse kick.Thank you sensei.
Respect from India 🇮🇳🙏.
Omg that was absolutely packed with technique a beginner can use for 2 years of training. I am dead serious. I had some coaching over that period of time and I can honestly say every aspect plus more than what I learned is in this 20min video you seriously can't find that often... wonder if he does online group or private lessons... I hope so!
Thanks so much. I just threw that together with no plan on 20 minutes notice because someone said they really needed it with COVID stopping their gym training.
I do some zoom privates and you can get details by emailing me at vargabros@yahoo.ca
Great Coaster! I love how it flies through the elements, and is such a smooth delectable experience!
Thanks!
Oh wait that me lmao
I was attacked in April and I also like walking around night time because the atmosphere is nice so I'm here to not die:)
I havnt fought in ages and this was great to get my basics back up, thank you so much!
Thank you for sharing your valuable knowledge with us, Gabriel!
You’re the best Gabriel, thanks a million!!!
Loved getting back to.the basics. The foundation skills are so important. Thank you Gabriel 🙏
Just started kickbox. These are wonderful explanations and demonstrations. Thank you!!!
Would love an intermediate video, but I realize my fundamentals need work.
Amazing, Gabriel! I´ve just started yesterday, and your explanations are so easy. Thanks a lot!
You're techniques, teaching and thought process is flawless.
5 min in and I immediately sub. This is such great information and you actually are able to teach it very clearly which is most important. You’ve got a lifelong follower!
This was a great watch, starting my first introduction training in a few days. Learnt a lot
This was awesome. Like others said, 4 years compresed into 29 minutes. Just watched the whole thing. It's not 1 second too long. Pure information. Thank you, Gabriel.
Great video. Staying on your toes, keeps your toe, knees and hips aligned allowing to safely pivot driving maximum power thru the hip.
This was is an incredible amount of information, thank you so much! I've been kickboxing for half a year now and there's so much little technique tips in here to improve my fundamentals.
I'll start practicing today!
These are wonderful explanations and demonstrations. Thank you! GABRIEL
Thank you I really appreciate how well you explain the little details that make the whole movement preform easier and faster 👍
Nice tips bud. Love the approach offering up variations and different schools of thought. (always pros and cons)
I finally purchased my bag and got it hung. First thing I did was look up several videos for proper teachings. This is one of the best I’ve seen. Concise, explains the different sets motions and stances. Really appreciate this! I will be referencing back to this from time to time.
His back drop with his belts is amazing. I’m 29 and just recently decided to start learning kickboxing. My first official class is tomorrow and I’m excited and nervous as well. I’ve always been a fan of hand to hand combat, but it wasn’t until me going through a divorce and mental issues (plus my brutha constantly on me about it) wish me luck guys!
Probably one of best vids I've seen. Thanks for taking the time to explain
Great tutorial this is awesome. Using these techniques on the heavy bag.
this is gem. thanks Gabriel
This is such a valuable guide. Thank you Coach Gabriel Varga!
Thank you so much for posting this goldmine. Amazingly detailed. Thank you so much.
Perfect! Concentrated knowledge beginners routine... Great job, man... Never seen better showed and explained in such amount of time💪👍

Yes this Is what I needed, thank you!
This is really good! I've been kickboxing for a couple of years now and this stuff is correcting all my issues that seem to have escaped my Instructor. Thank yo Gabriel two thumbs up!
Excellent, Excellent, Excellent tips and guidance. Thank you kindly.
Great video, thank you!
I'm 42, it's been decades. Thanks for the pointers and refreshers.
Thank you Gabriel!
Thank you for this 🙏🏼 New to your channel and to the sport, so appreciate the insight! Big fan from 🇳🇴
Just started kickboxing, this channel is a life saver!
Thank you. Youre my first teacher! Just starting to learn at home.
Really covers the fundamentals well. Thanks!
This is really good. Thanks for your time Champ. Keep rocking high.
Thanks for your time and knowledge this has been the best self defense video I have ever seen.
I am trying kickboxing for the first time and after watching this I feel like I'll go into it with some knowledge :)
This was excellent, a good refresh and learning new stuff as well!
Such an incredible video - thank you, brother!
Just found your channel. 58 yr old female wanting to learn self defense or at least having a fighting chance. Just watched your injury prevention video also
Good for you. Self defense is fantastic plus it's a fun way to stay active. I hope you enjoy the episodes.
Great video!
Rythm is excellent, easy to follow, nice showcase of defense skills.
Content wisely chosen.

The greatest Canadian kick-boxer and all round good guy.
Thank you Sir I feel like training again after seeing your tutorials🙏
Great video, thak you for sharing your knowledge! It would be really helpful for us absolute beginners to be able to see your feet completely when you are demonstrating. Keep up!
Very nicely explained and alot of moves I haven't seen any video where someone explained so much and showed so many moves no one does this your video is the best and very helpful thank you so much CHAMP.
Start right here! Thank you!
Awsome, thanks for making these videos
This was amazing!
I cannot stop watching this channel. You are a great teacher. I would like to see more videos with drills to do with a partner like the one you did with your Brother. I am practicing them every week and I am better on seeing strikes coming at me and counter. Something that I am find to be more challenging is when my partner throws compos with low kick high kick and then spinning kick. I find it challenging to block it. So I must be quick and move away.
As much as I would have loved to have learned kickboxing, I joined a boxing gym in my town a month ago because there aren't any kickboxing ones. However, I'm glad I found this video to help get me started on kickboxing on my own!
Good, i will practice as much as u can, u are the best
Picked something up? this is my new training routine :) great job. gracias profe
This is so good!! Thanks for that! ❤
Man this is some quality content! You’re a great teacher mate. Love from India, cheers
Great video. These basics are so important. Awesome channel in general too
Seeing this just made me realize that boxing especially kickboxing is lethal!!!

I'm a newbie and this was a great review of what I've been learning over the last few weeks!!
This video is amazing! I am an absolute beginner at kickboxing, but this gave me so much insight! Later on I will probably look at other videos depending on my progress. Thank you, Mr. Varga! It was a pleasure :)
Yes, please. Please absolutely DO put up a video for both advanced and intermediate levels. There's a real deficit of videos that discuss complex fighting techniques. Thank you.
Wow, this guy is amazing and so skillful.
For all the teenagers out there that think they can't do it i wanna say something to y'all: just do it, don't be afraid even if you don't go pro, at least do it for you. I am 35 and i recently let a friend of mine who had 16 professional fights to show me the basics of kickboxing. I absolutely love this sport and i always said when i was 14-15 that i will never be good at this. I regret this so much now because i seem to understand and learned very fast what this gentleman is teaching you all...do it boys, the amount of confidence it gives you its unmeasurable! Don't let anyone talk you out of it!
