CATCH KICK-CROSS-ROUND KICK

จับเตะและเตะสวน

A defensive-to-offensive sequence. When the opponent throws a round kick, you catch the leg under the armpit, step forward into cross range, land a clean cross on the trapped opponent, and then finish with your own round kick to the standing leg. The catch keeps the opponent locked in place for both follow-up strikes.

KEY POINTS

  • 01Catch the kick high on the shin, not the foot
  • 02Secure the leg tightly under the armpit
  • 03Step forward into the opponent as you catch
  • 04Cross travels naturally from the caught-side arm
  • 05Kick the standing leg to sweep or damage the base

COMMON MISTAKES

  • ✕Catching the foot and losing grip
  • ✕Standing too far away after the catch
  • ✕Losing balance forward into the opponent
  • ✕Releasing the leg too early

TRAINING DRILLS

  • →Partner catch-and-return drills
  • →Shadow sequence with an imaginary catch
  • →Heavy bag practice for the cross-kick finish
