Burklerk Pinsinchai – Dynamic Symmetry | 82 min

2x Lumpinee Champion, 2x Thailand Champion – Burklerk Pinsinchai

Arjan Burklerk is a very unique man among the legends of Muay Thai. He boasts one of the most winning records of the Golden Age having lost only 8 times in 170 fights, fought prolifically and against intensely good competition, had a 22 year career (that is crazy) out of the famed Bangkok Pinsinchai Gym, and has transitioned into becoming a unique instructor in an Old School style of Muay – not quite like a time capsule as some trainers are, keeping everything as it was for them as they were growing up, but more like hes dedicated to carrying on the traditions of Muay Thai heritage while playing out his training in a very modern manner.

What I love about him is his joyfulness. Hes almost always smiling, all though his face and eyes, and seems to delight in his own tricks the same way a magician would put on a isnt that amazing? face after a masterful illusion except hes dropping you on your butt wtih some kind of incredible throw. His style is really demonstrative – you can see it from the back of the theater, so to speak – but its not flashy. His tricks arent tricks, theyre techniques and are absolutely practical for the ring, even though many of them kind of reference a Boran feel with their symmetry and pivots. It is awesome to have been able to capture his Muay in this series.

Any time were in Lampang, up in the North of Thailand, we try to stop in and see Arjan Burklerk. Its wonderful just to be around him, but he also is generous with training me. However, he doesnt really do full private sessions, so we just collect the 15-30 minutes at a time that we can get with him when we stop over to see him. Its like collecting little diamonds. Its also quite wonderful because it gives me a chance to work on the things hes shown me between meetings, so I can improve on these skills that really do need to be drilled and played with in order to get the timing and balance required for them, and then Arjan offers adjustments and elaborations on those techniques as I improve.

There is a lot covered in this training video, which is still long form in terms of its length but not all one take is it usually is. We do go over some of the same techniques multiple times, which I find really helpful and youll see more of the details as the video progresses because Ive practiced and gotten better with them, so dont feel rushed to figure it all out on the first viewing and maybe something will reveal itself in a later session (within this same video). His kind of signature move is kicking out the standing leg of his opponent as a counter to that opponents kick. Youll see it in real time, in real context at the start of the video when Burklerk faced off against Pareuhatlek. Its an amazing technique and he follows it with a wicked left hook that youll see a few times in shadow throughout this video but he has not yet worked with me on. There are also counters following catching a kick, unusual variations on clinch and knee techniques, and something we revisit as an unspoken theme is how Arjan builds a frame with his arms as a guard to have a fortified, strong and unyielding physical style. I dont completely get it at any point in this video, but I study it with the voiceover and will be working on it continually.

Some Highlights:

KIcking out the standing leg as a counter to your opponents kick. The important elements on this one are timing, cutting across your opponents body with a deep step toward the standing leg and bending your own standing leg for a deep sweep; hitting low enough on their standing leg (by the Achilles Tendon) and slightly hooking your own foot by flexing it; keeping the arm out straight (same side as your own kicking leg) to push against the chest as both a guard and to aid in off-balancing the opponent.

Switching stance on an open-side leg kick. Whichever way you stand, you have an open side, which is the direction your belly is facing. If youre Orthodox (right handed) this means that catching a kick on your right side; Southpaw (left handed) catching on your left side. Watch Arjan Burklerk for how to really step back into a reversed stance because I struggle with it still, but his is incredibly measured and consistent. When you invert your stance simultaneous to catching the kick on that side, you are setting yourself up for a powerful counter to your opponents now-open side. Its awesome. Arjan shows a number of different counters to this, but a punch, kick, or knee are all immediately available.

Turning the knee on a caught kick. One of the easiest and most effective wa
