  1. I think what you are trying to say here, correct me if I'm wrong, is that your "good" or "strong" hand is your left and your good strong leg is your right.

    So are you ambidextrous? If so, shouldn't be a problem. Start training, and tell your kru (teacher) that you are ambidextrous. They'll know what to do with you once they see your strikes.


  2. If you jab with your left then it is left foot forward, making you a normal right handed fighter.  Keeping the right foot back is good for mobility, balance and faking a left front kick and then coming around with the roundhouse right.

  3. Try the "I have no skills stance" because it's skill-less to have only one strong kicking leg is it not?  It isn't called "Muay Thai Boxing" for nothing even though "Muay Thai" is its short name.  You're not a true artist until you practice and make equal efficiency in both arms and both legs.  How will you ever learn the Yaang Sam Kun which is one of the most important techniques and movement skills of "Muay Thai".  You must have just started training in Muay Thai like what?....yesterday?  Muay Thai isn't known as "The Science of Eight Limbs" for nothing man.  "Muay Lopburi" and "Muay Chaiya" which are two more important techniques that Muay Thai teaches should be practiced and studied through out your Muay Thai training.  If you don't know a simple "south-paw" stance or the techniques employed through Muay Thai striking techniques then you should ask your instructor about the stance and the importance of balance.  Other wise this entire question is total BS.
