Muay Thai Beginner Tips: How to Catch Kicks without Taking Damage

Learn how to catch your opponents kicks without taking damage from the body kick. The key to this technique is the footwork and movement away from your opponent's kick. It is important to step to the side away from the power, not towards the power. A common mistake people make when catching kicks is step back or not move at all. When you don't move, you end up absorbing the full power of the kick. While this is fine in training, if you take the power of full body kicks it will bruise your ribs and damage you in a fight.
