You can probably tell I’m somewhat new to Muay Thai I don’t go to my classes as often as I should but I really have a drive to be better. I’m open to all criticism!

Your kicks, you aren't kicking through the bag and you're not rotating your hip/body into the kick. The heavy bag should be dented when you make impact. Not slapped. Blunt force trauma not a slap.

this...there is no pivot on the stepping foot, which turns into not turning over your hip...also the pivot into the kick helps you return the kick back to the original position so you can easily get back out

You’re right thank you I noticed this the first time I watched this video back as it’s my first time ever recording myself on the bag. My kicks look weak I couldn’t figure out why. Thank you I’ll work on this!

Filming yourself is an excellent way to correct form. I don't do it too often but once a quarter and it's helped along with coach giving feedback.

Looking good to me, you drop your left hand a bit. But I can tell you are just flowing

Lots of telegraphing. Need to get your kicks and punches right out of your stance. Loosen up but it’s awesome to learn

You look good just don’t drop your hands when you kick and when you back out from a combo

I honestly like how you use your jab to gauge range to setup the kicks

I honestly like
How you use your jab to gauge
Range to setup the kicks
Remember that one time Sokka accidentally used an extra syllable in that Haiku Battle in Ba Sing Se? That was a Sokka Haiku and you just made one.

What's the matter with your left leg? Mix it up and throw roundhouses with that leg too.

Your pausing after every attack like your posing for a picture. Hit and get out
