VH1’sBig Morning Buzz Livehost Carrie Keagan takes us through her latest lesson.
Just be sure to protect your knuckles.
Wrap those hands!"
The sound it makes as your gloves hit the pad is so powerful!
A SOLID KICK
“There are a lot of different kicking techniques in Muay Thai Boxing.
This one is my favorite – it’s called the Roundhouse Kick.
If you are flexible enough, you could Roundhouse Kick someone from head to toe.
You’ve probably seen it done in movies a million times and never knew what it was called.”
When someone gets too close to you, it’s impossible to throw a good punch.
That’s where this move comes in!
Grab their shoulder, pull them towards you and knee them!
But be sure to point your toes – you are a lady, after all."
I had to learn how to do it!
I went straight to work on it with my trainer in LA, Johnny Hunt.
It’s not an easy move, but WOW does it look cool!"
