This Sylvie’s Technique Vlog is shot at a time when most of us are experiencing “social distancing,” “self isolating,” or “shelter in place,” depending on how it’s called. But we’re at home, quarantined to varying degrees, and largely locked out of our gyms. This technique vlog is perfect for these circumstances because it requires no equipment, no instruction, no sweat, no partners, and practically speaking no space at all. You can do this from bed. You can do this while brushing your teeth. You can even do this while pining for the people and equipment you had access to in your gym communities – you can use that feeling to hone this skill. And we can all get back to our gyms having improved our ability to learn, pick up techniques, and prepare ourselves for training, fights, or whatever else.

Anyone who has even Googled “Mental Training” has come across the importance of visualization. Sounds simple, just picture what you want to be doing in the ring. But, simple as it is, I found it incredibly hard to actually do. So, this technique vlog is how to get started and how to get good at this particular skill. It will help you in countless ways, so honing this skill now, when we have time and lack of access to “real” training, will be to our own advantage when we do finally get back to live training and fighting.

I reference “The Inner Game of Tennis,” which you can get on Kindle.

Muay ThaiSylvie's Technique Vlog

A 100 lb. (46 kg) female Muay Thai fighter. Originally I trained under Kumron Vaitayanon (Master K) and Kaensak sor. Ploenjit in New Jersey. I then moved to Thailand to train and fight full time in April of 2012, devoting myself to fighting 100 Thai fights, as well as blogging full time. Having surpassed 100, and then 200, becoming the westerner with the most fights in Thailand, in history, my new goal is to fight an impossible 471 times, the historical record for the greatest number of documented professional fights (see western boxer Len Wickwar, circa 1940), and along the way to continue documenting the Muay Thai of Thailand in the Muay Thai Library project: see patreon.com/sylviemuay
