In order to be successful in kickboxing, it is essential to learn and master the basic kickboxing combos early in your training. These combos are taught as part of your fitness training right from the word go. In proper kickboxing classes, the proper techniques are taught in detail so you know precisely how to perfect these new skills. Since 1960, these kickboxing combos have been borrowed from the original martial art from which they came and adapted to the more modern form used today. Kickboxing combos, performed with pin point accuracy combined with lightening fast speed is a wonderful tool for self defence and essential for kickboxing tournaments.
Depending on what kind of class you take, these combos will be demonstrated to you by your instructor and then you go will be taken through the process move by move and then do many repartitions until you remember the sequence. At this stage it will be time to learn to be more precise and accurately connect at the exact spot intended. Practising using a bag and/or shadow boxing is a helpful.
The moves should be explained clearly and simply e.g.
Hand moves: Jab- forward punch using your knuckles; Hook- swing your arm sideways and try to hit opponent in the face: Ridge Hand- using the side of your hand; Back Hand- hitting with the back of your hand:Back Jab- jabbing off your back hand.
Feet and Legs: Forward Kick- pretty self explanatory
Side Kick- like a forward kick but around the side of the person, hitting them with the top of your foot. Axe kick- bring leg up as high as you can then drag it down Flying forward kick- jump into the air and do a forward kick.
These are but a few of the moves but they form the basis for other moves and combos. Kickboxing combos to increase aerobic fitness can be practised to music which should be around 140 to 150 beats per minute to be effective.
When using a bag or shadow boxing the following combos are useful:
- Sideways to Bag: the inside arm does a back fist and inside leg does a kick whilst the outside arm does a cross.
- Back fist: back fist; side kick; cross
- Alternating jabs; hooks shovels and roundhouse kick. 1-2, 3-4; 5- 6; 7-8.
This is to be dome several times then swap sides.
Another way of learning and practicing is to have a sparring partner. This not only has you practicing the Kickboxing combos but also serves to teach you how to anticipate your opponent’s next moves and how to avoid them and counter attack. Many combos can be learned for specific situations such as up close conflict, much stronger or taller person or several attackers at once.
These are wonderful for building aerobic fitness, toning, strengthening and for building confidence whilst being mindful of the meditative and spiritual side of the sport.
