Lawrence Kenshin TJ the thinking man, what a beast
@@soullight8632 cheers
hey lawrence im from london..do you know any gym that can teach me a good muay thai
I couldn't agree more! Their style is so fluid and beautiful. I've trained there twice and will be going back again this year... and the next, and the next...etc!
@@EricHedden how Would you comprare The clinching there compared to other gyms?
I've been watching them for years... These guys are the textbook picture of what Muay Thai technique should look like to me.
cheers, its true
This gym was fairly "new" in the last 3-4 years. I am so happy they have grown .
cheers
Their style is just correct execution of techniques. Perfect body movement on every punch, kick, knee and elbow, combined with near perfect balance. It looks elegant because this is the correct and natural way for the body to move while strikes are being performed. There's no unnecessary gimmicks, it's complete economy of movement. Every step, every move has a purpose, and the result of it is seen immediately.
These guys are so beautiful to watch!
the really are!
This made me wanna start with Muay Thai again.
do it bro
sad to know i will not survive a day of that
@@kpi4162 You'll. It can be rough in the start, but a week or two and you'll be fine. Here's a tip from my experience : don't let ANYTHING influence you. Such as being tired. Work on your mind, so you can work on your body. :)
the shit is just fun right, you get hit...smile and strike back and then you throw bows and still smile for the love of the sport.
EOSHAY Fullwood he can start anytime, we just need to encourage him
Spent a couple of weeks there, it's awesome. O and F are great people as well, so humble, positive, and down to earth 🙏 O lives in Sweden now and my gym has ties to the twins so I get to chat with him when he visits our gym, it's always one of the highlights of my day. Great style, great human beings.
cheers for sharing.
Currently training at Sitjaopho and loving every single session !

FABRICIO S. QUEIROZ Im going. Dont know when, dont know how. But I’m definitely going at some point.
I am lucky enough that I get to watch MAX muay Thai every night at 6:25pm on TV. I watch it with my 5mth old son before he goes to sleep, he seems to love it and gets quite animated (which brings pride and joy to his grandfather to see).
warrior genes
Thank you for providing the incredible content on this channel
thank you for watcfhing and the support
I am glad you showed their Gym and their style
cheers bro
You can't believe how many fights I had telling people "He was pretending to be hurt!". Man, glad you put that up there - It's all part of the sparring experience and it DOES help.
people seriously thought he almost got Ko'd from that light uppercut - they weren't trolling. Ugh, so glad hahaha
hahah ya sparring has to emulate!
TJ is awesome! 4.32 that beautiful long knees then the jab and elbow combo are quite something.
beautiful for sure
Another legend in the making.
Damn they just keep coming! I lovee these videos 🙏
cheers bro
Sitjaopho is the best, what a beautiful style, this guy's give me a lot of motivation🙏🔥❤

i can watch that opening padwork forever and be always awestruck. to me, it is immensely beautiful.
This is terrific, I'd love to see more gym profiles.
🙏🙏
So glad you covered these guys! Their instagram is on point too.
cheers
Awesome sparring! Very technical, perfect control, not too soft yet not a single uncontrolled strike.. so smooth. Nice comfy 16s too. 😁
very technical for sure
@lawrence kenshin you bring great inspiration and knowledge to both fans and fighters. I love being a practitioner of martial arts even though I may not go pro ever. Hope I can someday be a great analyst like you but it will require me years of learning.
Cheers bro it means a lot to me. Best wishes for your journey
Awesome seeing how they spar. Very interesting. Thanks for making this video.
very nice sparring
Their balance is astonishing, this would be my second step after Jitmuangnon in sha Allah!! 🙏🏼👊🏼❤️

Yes sir
awesome, i was in hua hin last month doing my first fight ever (video in my profile). This gym looks like for veterans fighters already but looks awesome. i had not heard of since it's a bit remotely located from the center but i'll give a try next time i go there !
check it out!
I've been a long fan of your video breakdowns and now I am blown away that you did a video on the Sitjapho Twins! I luckily got to train at the gym over a year ago and it was an amazing experience! Thanks for making a highlight vid of this gym!
thx for watching bro really appreciate your support
Thank you!
tj looks like a nice guy "edit: both seem really nice
cheers
Yep. I thought that too. Deadly but totally humble guys.
nice video. do some breakdowns on some orthodox(stance) muay thai fighters. Pick whatever one you want; they do help me in my own muay thai training. keep it up brother!
this one is technically orthodox breakdown :), cheers for the support bro
Oh wow, it's a surprise to hear this name again Phet-Aek and Phet Toe Sitjaopho the famous twins that i have seen their fights so many times on tv back in my teenage days. Especially Phet-Aek, He was so handsome and look elegantly in the rings. Seeing his name again bring me back those memories.
theyre great!!
1:20 so cute, it's like two nuclear warheads play fighting each other XD
Hello mr. Kenshin may i ask if where the sitjaopo twins gym in thailand? I want to go in thailand and train to sitjaopo gym. Thanks for the reply.
Hey Kenshin, how did you began your journey on Martial Arts, and how did you get so much knowledge about them?
Making videos on them every week is probably a good start
I love it great fighters.
My old friend Paul from the UK trains there 🙏🏻
These guys are insane. Amazing technique.
yes they are amazing
Makes me wanna go back to Thailand to train with such passionate practitioner
gogogo
Yo that pad work was so smooth fam.
yes really is
Manop's gym or this one? I can't decide. Both seem great, and I know I'll just have to try both, but I'm torn lol
Hey guys I just started in Muay Thai and I was wondering if you guys had any tips to kick higher and better. If you guys have any tips for stretches too it would be much appreciated!
just keep on kicking is the #1 tip
what a beautiful bromance.
haha yes
Love the vid
cheers bro means a lot
Can u do more of those muay thai vs different martial arts style videos
Nice fun.
What happens when you get hit hard by twins? Do you end up seeing quadruple? :D
lol
You know Lawrence Kenshin just blew the lid off this gym for everyone to take notice :)
haha too much powa! just kidding. hope they get a lot of traffic from this
@@LawrenceKenshin Me too, they deserve it.
One of my life goals is to train there
👏👏 muito bom!!!!
yaa
I must training at the gym
This is exceedingly interesting
thank you exceedingly much
@@LawrenceKenshin ahahaha, i maybe was exceedingly flamboyant
Compared to the Jitmungnon brothers, who are better?
always wanted to travel to hua hin and for this reason
gogo!
nice ...
a good friend of mine was writing a book on them many years ago he never published it unfortunately as he hit a gold mine with a new york times best seller and never finished it. would have been a great muay thai instructional
my friend is an author for victory belt you should contact them about your book
How much do you think it would cost to train here ?

Hi Lawrence, the book is in spanish lenguaje too ?
Unfortunately not!
@@LawrenceKenshin thanks, aprecciate your channel and your knowledge about martial arts, good work !
Thats that guy i saw in the tiger muay thai tryouts 2:17
cool vid good see new people never heard of the American is he an amateur?
How much do they charge to train here?
they have prices up on FB! Or msg them on instagram too
True fighters
yess
❤
How long has TJ been training in total and how old is he now?? Looks in his mid 30s
Baba14k haha I’m 32 mate, started training at 25
And his big brother 'CJ' also the badass gangster in San Andreas :D
haha
Buanguen, that TJ hit with his lead elbow, seemed a little eager to go down in my opinion. Feet seemed firmly planted even after the elbow landed but he flings them up and forward. I know he got back up and the fight went the distance, but it seemed a bit dodgy. Maybe seeing it in slow-mo made me analyse it too much
ah
Would their style of Muay Thai be considered Muay Femur?
I'm mad at myself for not knowing of this gym!
lol it's okay.
is ok
Do they knock down each other for fun ?
ya
LK is a legend too..
cheers bro
Thats the dream
The kind of place I would like to train in
gogogo
#INSPIRATIONAL
cheers
Muay thai is the most beautiful sport i believe
agreed

มีคำอื่นนอกจาก same same ไหม คนไทยชอบพูดคำนี้
เขาแค่พอสื่อสารได้ เลยติดปาก เหมือนญี่ปุ่นที่ชอบพูดว่า อาโน่ๆๆๆๆ นั่นและ
👍 👊💙
thx mcgreg
This is what life is all about.
yess
These guys turn people into beasts
I swear to God. This is what life is all about.
When you gonna hop on JRE?

to bad the fight shown should have been a no contest. nice style none the less....
Thai Thai thai
yesss
He looks like young brother of don willson
They trained hard but not all will make their way up. It depend to their faith also, lucky n unlucky.
Those knees are like spears
CAVALLO! 3:46
I know this, you better be keeping those pads up, are you going to go down fast
yes sir
@@LawrenceKenshin one thing I learned at a very young age is that boxing is called the "sweet science". It's almost like a dance when I watch Muay Thai I feel like it's a dance with power, elegance and knowledge. I am built similar the body shape of Muay Thai I've been surfing 4 over 30 years. I fluctuate between 175 lb and 190 lb, with a 74 in' reach. And I believe that cardio has way more to do with a better fighter 10 muscle mass this is a personal opinion I think we might share. Best of luck to you in all your endeavors in the future. May you be blessed in all ways
