Never stop these videos please . I had a stroke and I train in my house with the help of these great videos.
That's amazing 👏
@@8limbsUs thank you so much , training everyday , so I have the strength to kick like a horse . Also to have elbows like razor blades .
Keep going 👌🏾
@@nomorepain2267 I will I can’t use my left side but I can use my elbow 🙂
@@8limbsUs hi how do we use muay thai for self defence, please ask kru on this and how can we tailor it for our physique or against who were fighting
The level of detail Skarbowsky gives on everything (defense, weaponry, etc.) shows just how long and hard this man has sparred and trained... Even while drunk from a late night party, he could whoop George Saint Pierre's own fighters the very next day at sparring! The most French badass in history.
I love his take on fighting, winning without taking damage is a real win.
@@crazypato3752 th-cam.com/video/MWJjl2BPxuI/w-d-xo.html
It really feels like he is trying to teach a lot in a very short time frame. He genuinely looks like he wants to teach as much as possible during the training session. There are so many of his own personal fighting techniques and concepts that he is trying to show. All of it is great and worth watching more than a few times to fully grasp.
This guy is truly a legend. I had no idea he is still in Thailand teaching.
If anyone doesn't already know. This dude used to be one of GSP's coaches. Skarbowsky is quite well known to be a heavy drinker and smoker during his prime fight days. He's just one of those guys that were born to fight. Just a tough son of a gun.
How was he able to fight while drinking and smoking ?
He actually said he let the "GSP drunk random French dude" hype live its life and he found it funny but he's not that much of a heavy drinker, he just has this nonchalant kind of style and relied on this very important aspect of muay thai, namely keeping calm and composed. One of his co-workers in Paris even said the wai kru is used as a way to focus on this, to progressively get ready to fight without feeling too much agressivity or pressure, it can serve as emotional conditioner/stabilizer in a way.
I tried his tactic in sparring a bunch of times and it's very effective. Just using one leg as your main weapon simplifies everything and the opponent is not necessarily more equiped to deal with it. Because you can teep, jab, fake the teep, teep again, jab, fake the jab, roudnhouse, jab, teep. It overloads the opponent's mind with very simple things and gradually opens more options.
Time stamp??
Which leg to use ?
@@crazypato3752 th-cam.com/video/MWJjl2BPxuI/w-d-xo.html
I guess the one you prefer haha, as long as you can variate your rhythm and your kicks
@@crazypato3752 I think he mentioned it depends on their open side, so if you're Orthodox and so is your opponent you'll blast them with the lead leg and if they're Southpaw you'll use your rear leg. I also think Sylvie had a video with Yodkhunpon where they focus on breaking your opponent down with the lead side and using your rear side to finish them later in the fight.
The most informationally dense 1 hour I have ever seen in this library so far, just amazing. He is such a living legend, thank you for your effort in making this posting for us.
JCS is a legend in France Thank you for taking time to interview him
Legendary for being a drunk who beat his wife...Google it
Very smart man. Explains how to fight PROPERLY.
He seems like a very cool guy. This was super insightful. Sometimes we over complicate things clearly, he talks a bout having good balance and block, 1 good kick in the right places and range, creating an opening for a good punch that was his recipie for success
commenting before i even watch, thank you, a big skarbowsky fan, up there with dekkers imo...too bad you didnt get to do something with him RIP Dekkers
Ah, the sniff test at 33:44! Hilarious. All jokes aside, beautiful video. Thank you to Jean-Charles, Sylvie, and Kevin. Great to see these full length public videos so new-comers can see the value of what is in the library.
As an autistic, love the exceptional detail in your videos - regardless of the topic. I'm not even pursuing Muay Thai at the moment but it is fascinating to hear people explore a topic with such depth and importance to details.
Some things I took away from this video (no timestamps sry): Blocking kicks by bringing the blocking leg diagonally forward to intercept the kick. Form a right angle with your wrist and knee while blocking the kick to catch it in between.
Only use one leg for kicking to the open side because it can't be caught there and the impact is higher than on the closed side. Aim for the wrist with the roundhouse to knock opponent off balance. Use your foot instead of shin when aiming for more distant targets like back wrist and hind leg. Use an analogous whipping motion with your arm while kicking.
Stand on front leg to free up back leg for blocking. You can still bob back and forth between both legs to be able to block with both if you need to. Intercept front clinch diagonally with your back arm and put front arm on neck. Push opponents front arm down, lean on it with your chest and pull opponent down with your weight. Don't look down while clinching and keep your elbow low to block knees. Aim for bladder and liver with knees and teeps and use your toes with the teep.
Thank you for the information. Would love to see a seminar with you and Danny bill. I believe he trained at the jocky gym during the Golden Age.
Best channel with the best guest. Skarbowski est une légende 😎
He was one of George’s St-Pierre’s coaches on The ultimate fighter! Can’t wait to watch :)
Thank you for making this public, respect to you and Skarbowsky you both are legends in the western world.
Awesome! Thank you Sylvie!
He's a free thinker! Great fighter of course!
1:13:07 Holy shit I did not see those last few lines coming from JCS
Really struck a chord with me
What an amazing session, thank you so much Sylvie, Kevin and JCS
So many helpful tips here. It's amazing small things such as aiming for the wrist prevents hurting the foot and prevents opponent from maintaining balance
Awesome work as usual!
You've done the world a great service releasing this thank you!
Thank you 🙏
Wow. What a channel !!!!!
Thank you so much for this!!!
John was in Israel giving us a seminar with one of his students. I must admit it was really amazing, one of the most fun training sessions we had.
He also has a healthy sense of humor
this was amazing Sylvie thank you!
What a great and informative video Jean-Charles really showed and talked about how to fight smart what an awesome teacher.
thank you so much sylvie & jean charles !!!
What a beautiful movie/documentary Sylvie, thank you so much

What a beautiful episode of the library. 10/10 Please never stop doing these Sylvie. Big fan from México
Great video, I love the bit about attacking the wrist
Nice .
U r great and Jean Charles is also a amazing warrior.
phenomenal, so many gems here
thank you sylvie, kev and jean charles
Brilliant!!!!! Thanks!!!!
Thank you so much for this! Can listen to JCS for hours ❤
Just watched the whole video. So insightful and informative. Thank you, Sylvie.
I just wanted to clarify - does kicking with one leg just apply to the roundhouse kick? Or teeps as well?
His reasoning applies to teeps as well. I fo into this in my Patreon version, but a benefit that he's describing but not explicitly saying is that you simplify and shorten your "stack" and thought process for selecting weapons against someone probably faster and more experienced than you are; so not having to "decide" which leg to teep with and just keeping it to one fits his reasons for the kicks.
Thank you very much sylvie and chong I almost feel guilty watching this and not paying. The gems 💎 dropped In this were priceless.

There were some great tips in this video that I will take with me forever. I watched the whole thing. Thank you for documenting this and sharing.
THANK YOU SYLVIE!! jean is a funny sarcastic guy hahahah
The first time is saw Jean Charles was when GSP brought him in on the ultimate fighter series he was completely drunk or hungover by the looks of it and he proceeded to school all of the ufc trainees 😂 certainly a French Muay Thai legend I believe he’s a muay matt ? Or am I mistaken ? Great vid as usual Sylvie when does the Thongchai vid on the library go up ? Excited for that one he’s such a badass
drunken master story was a tv story and not real mate
@@MrQbatrue!
@@MrQba His side of the story is that they offered him a cocktail at the hotel and he didn't want to waste it so brought it with him.
Ay from Toronto Canada love your lessons and stories 🇨🇦
best episode
Great video, thank you for this legacy of Jean Charles ❤
"Warming up is useless, we'll do it old school" 😂
JC S. with Greg
"Stop doing that, it's weird!"
@@moussetache1815 a true legend... solid as a rock, not a fu.kin' Hipster ^^ 😂
Great interview!!! next is Boughanem and his incredible Muay Thai Journey with his brother!!! Thanks...
Being humble, knowing his own weakness made him great. Legend!
Amazing! This is gonna help me in my next fight in 1 week. Sawadee Khrab 🙏😇
Hello from orlando florida 🇺🇸
Skar the legend
Big fan of Jean Charles...a great teacher whose instructionals have helped me, and i now smile 😃 alot( also thank you 🙏 Silapathai for your guidance) LOVE the photographs as well 💯
Sylvie’s actually really pretty. Thanks for being such an inspiration.
Skarbowsky is also very pretty
@@habuzelephoni1279 definitely
These are some Jungle secrets damn absolute gold
Nice!
merci! c'est top!
fucking love this Sylvie, Jean is a legend
Btw, Sylvia - not sure if it's possible, but is there a change you could interview these golden era legends: Ananthasak Panyuthapum, Singdam O Aukritt - or Singdam's gym mate - Kruekrit Sor. Naya-arm? Incredible kickers and technicians (Ananthasak actually beat Singdam twice; Ananthasak being a brutal elbow-hunter in his own right). Not sure if you can, or if they are even open to interviewing/are still coaching, but I think Ananthasak is still coaching the Thai army in boxing.
In regards to kicking with the foot: is it best to kick with your toes flared out or curled and pointed down?
"yea I know dead leg." *look of sadness cuz she knows what's coming lol
YES!
Great 👍🏻
Now I want to go back and watch the ultimate fighter episode he was on with GSP
how you call the Rhythm in thai? yol ?
i've been looking for the term for days
จังหวะ jang-wah
Jack slack brought me here 😊
Lmao bro became immortal after his tuf appearance ❤😂
this lesson is better then a few years of mediocre trainers!
nooo the mic 🥲🥲 please not forget to bring 2 mics next time plss, the advice are too precious 🤍
(awsome content thx you)
We did not forget the mics, its our usual shotgun mic. It wasn't meant to be an interview, explanation-heavy session. All the MTL sessions are actual training sessions (with very little talking), but Jean-Charles had something else in mind and it evolved the way it did. We never mic up a Muay Thai Library session because they are usually very physical. We just had to roll with how it naturally came out, which was unique in its own way. One reason it was made public for everyone is because it was so different.
@@8limbsUsI understand, it's still valuable content in anyway. :)
finally!
I remember when GSP brought Skarbowsky to the ultimate fighter and Jean come drunk and destroyed everybody. Funny video (not for the fighters)
How come I haven’t heard you talk about “ Dany Bill “ 🤔 He’s one of the legends if not the legend . You know 💡
Dany Bill is a historic non-Thai fighter, but my focus and passion is on preserving Thailand's Muay Thai. Jean-Charles Skarbowsky, apart from fighting at a high level in Thailand in the early 2000s, remains closely connected to the Thai history of the sport and its fighters. He owns the former legendary Jockygym in Bangkok (where we've documented several fighters already like Silapathai, Ponsaknoi and Kru Wihok, and where we filmed this session), and also has for years had Thai legends in residence in his Paris gym, like Arjan Pipa, Robert, Krongsak. Other admirable non-Thais have just been too far afield from the focus the Muay Thai Library project, but I appreciate the suggestion!
I think Dany Bill lives in California...hard too reach I guess.
@@Jenjak I hope someone tells the story about Dany Bill . One of my favorite fighters to watch were Ramon dekker, Rob kaman and then I found out a video about Dany Bill . And like it or not he defeat ( Ramon dekker ) and he’s style was so beautiful to watch.
Wish the camera had a wider view. This was a great interview
The Muay Thai Library is usually a training documentation, but this session unexpectedly evolved into an interview in English as JCS is a wonderful storyteller, so the camera had to stay close so the mic would pick up his voice.
Beautiful
I just watched him vs bukaw and I’m VERY confused as what he says here conflicts what he is doing in the fight. For example, his weight in the bukaw fight is on his back foot a lot as he his bouncing the front leg, also he says only use 1 kick but he uses his right kick and switch kick in the fight. So not gonna lie I’m very confused. Also the way he explains to block the kick and block catch seems very dangerous as it leaves the head open? I’m not hating at all, guys a legend just genuinely confused? Maybe I didn’t understand what he was saying. BUT the weight stuff is he talking about, did he discover his after his career? And the 1 kick stuff? Honestly so confused lmao😭 cause rn I’m playing around with were my weight should be but idk.
This fight is the worst to look at because he took it last minute or something like that and did not know he would fight bukaw. I don t say you are wrong because I have not watched his fights in years but look at other fights of him.
@@colorfulbleeding yeah you right. Just watched some more fights of him a lot more of what he talks about here he uses. Him vs Masaaki Kato is a masterclass. Would love to hear more from him slyvie please about his teep and his jab. Guys jab is fucking amazing.
MASTER!!!!!!
🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
49:45 Can anyone tell me please what the sport is JCS is referring to that the Thai legends practised that helped with their flexibility?
It's Sepak Takraw. In France, we have Plumfoot
🙏🙏🙏
Cool
there's a competition to make more noise when kicking the bag 😂😂
YAAYYYYYYYY
I remember this guy from the ultimate fighter, GSP’s guy he brought in to beat down the contestants lol
I really want to know the trick about how to make loud noise kicking the bag ;)!
Make the noise? There’s no right or wrong way to do it. When you do it’s proven to add +20 to power and style.
@@rmwilliams8193 i dont think he meant shouting but rather the actual impact of the foot on the bag. But i might be wrong 😅
I find a lot of his teachings here in corey sandhagen fighting style
🙏❤🇫🇷💪🏻🥊
Les gens ne se rendent pas compte de qui est JC.ce mec aurait du gagner Buakaw et a été meilleur pendant un moment mais,faut pas le dire en plus il est Français 😉🙏💪🏻🥊🇫🇷JC est une personne très humble et très ouverte.rue du Borrego Paris 20🥊🙏je me demande si JC n a pas profité de la situation pendant le corps à corps 😜
damn... when you hear it in depth, muay thai seems even so much more different from k1... like the almost "political" fight dynamics... fighting like this the first 3 rounds, to do that in the 4th round... or judges not even watching/scoring the first 3 rounds at all... a lot of cultural aspects to winning and loosing also and a lot of messing around... im not sure if i like that... i have huge huge respect for the skills, no doubt and also for the culture (from their perspective)... but my understanding of fighting is better satisfied with that kyokushin plus boxing approach of k1, of 3 rounds just knocking them tf out the direct way, without excuses
You may not like it, but this peak male performance 🤣 This man is dangerous, even without trying lol
He forgot to explain the head movement part 😛
ThIs is like the anti-thesis of JRE. This is going to the signal's source and experience it. Obviously this is much better.
The opposite is lots of filthy causals whooping and grunting at the whooping and grunting of their JR leader.
In a sane world, Sylvie would have multi-million dollar deals with Spotify and not that other fool.
Is he muay femur?
bim, bim, bim ........... BOOM!
he comes across as just some dude. until he doesn't.
