Thank you for following but I don’t use that instagram. With the limited time and resources I have right now I am finding it best to focus on TikTok and X, as I don’t have time to manage all platforms. If you want to support my work, here in my link tree:
There are many fighters that employ both styles of low kicks, and some that also incorporate more Thai into it. Both the Dutch and Japanese style aim to keep their head back when they throw these kicks, as to not put a big target in range for an opponent to counter. Dutch low kicks find the perfect blend of Kyokushin and Japanese style – kicking at close range without being vulnerable to counters, and following up kicks with punches instead of retreating or angling out. Some Dutch fighters even use kicks to close distance.
