diagnoal kick
-if body is open (elbows out)
-prone to elbows to shin contact if elbows are in. ouch.
horizontal kick
-"breaking the shell" (i think. cuz this written long after the class).
-if elbows are tucked in protecting their body
multiple kicks
-don't bring your kicking leg all the way back to normal fight stance cuz it's too slow
catching a kick and dumping them
-step inside, turn your outside shoulder inside, lift up, put your free hand on knee, and dump them forward
-you can take 2 steps forward max or it's called plowing, which is illegal in muay thai rules
-it's like an ankle lock grip
-it's like a reverse 1/x (the graph) motion
-so for example if he uses his right leg to kick my left side: my left hand catches, i step to the right, i rotate my body to the right after i catch, and i push him with left hand on his knee
-note: you turn your body if they do a diagonal kick without much body turn. cuz you need to turn them to get them unbalanced and to where they can't hit you.
-BUT: if they did a horizontal kick and they turned their hips over good, then you don't need to turn your body. because they are already turned. turning your body would just make dumping them harder because of the leverage.
