Basic counter techniques & tactics

Underground
1

I'm pretty new to Muay Thai and have mostly been trying to improve my defense and counters early on. I have a few of the basics down, I know some of the hard and soft defenses and a few counters.

Please describe the best counters and tactics you use when sparring, how you draw your opponent, what attacks you wait for them to do and then how you counter.

Also if there are any good DVDs or books available for the beginner stuff please point me in the right direction.

Thanks,

Neil

Thanks, I'll have a look.

I can only view three pages though, can you recommend a good book or DVD? I seen a Master Sken (sp?) DVD on www.play.com which seems a good choice.
