Muay Boran Monkey Style. Counter against rear roundhouse kick n.2

Step 1
As the opponent steps forward and throws a rear roundhouse kick to the ribcage, the Muay Wanorn fighter stops the attack with a lead leg straight kick aimed at the lower abdomen.
Step 2
The stop kick breaks the opponent’s balance and opens a temporary gap in his wall of defence. Without stopping he quickly shuffles forward and, before the opponent regains his balance he jumps up and delivers a devastating knee strike aimed at the breastbone or face.
Muay Wanorn Style.
Amongst the many devastating actions used by Nak Muay over the centuries, a large family of techniques have been inspired by the agile movements of the Wanorns, mythological humanoid monkeys very popular in Hindu tradition. Hanuman, Ongkot, Pali, Sukrip, gave their names to a lot of powerful Muay Boran maneuvers that, as a whole, are called Muay Wanorn, the Monkey style of Fighting.
Wanorn or forest dwellers, are smart creatures that, in case of need, can go back to their reptilian brain very quickly. Starting from a very relax state, they can suddenly burst forth violently, savagely attacking the enemy, hitting from every direction. When they assail their opponents, they smash powerfully using their knees, palms, forearms, elbows, closed fists, giving their enemies no chance of escape.
The 5 main principles that characterize this style’s techniques are:
the Wanorn must be deceptive and unpredictable,
he must be poisonous to the opponent,
he must destroy his opponent’s attacks,
he must bluff the opponent,
he must scare the opponent.
Practitioners are encouraged to demonstrate all of those characteristics when fighting and when performing the solo set.
