HELLO, I'M LAWRENCE KENSHIN

When I first started creating content online back in 2013, there was little to no content based on technique analysis in combat sports. At a time when I had no followers, I decided to send an article I wrote to Joe Rogan...

What happened next was crazy, Joe was extremely supportivehe applauded the analysis, saying it was  excellent and  encouraged me to keep going.

 

After that moment, Lawrence Kenshin Striking Breakdowns was born. 

Months later, Joe Rogan credited my work for helping him  become "ultra-fascinated with striking sequences in high level kickboxing and Muay Thai."

But thats not all...

Within a few years, all of my martial art heroes approached me to show incredible support of the educational content I was creating.

I was humbled by how legends had reached out to show their appreciation, so I continued to pay it forward by sharing their brilliance and story with the world.

Since then, thousands of martial artists from all over the world have written in to tell me how much my work has helped them transform on their striking journey.

It's truly been a great honor to serve martial artists for a decade online now  from passionate beginners to world class champions. 

Whatever technical goals they pursued, my work helped them get closer to mastery.

Technique fight analysis was once a very minute niche, but today, it has gone mainstream.

Along the way, it has transformed the way many people learn and view martial arts.

Thanks to legends and incredible supporters like you, it's has also helped me become one of the top educators and storytellers in the martial arts world. 

Today, on top of creating unique and systematic video courses with legends, I also coach and game plan amongst these legends.

It all came from nothing... I'll never forget how nervous I was publishing my first few videos and sending it to my heroes.

Back then, I'd spend weeks studying a legend and their brilliant patterns. I would put what I learned into a breakdown videoall for free—and people loved it.

And when the legends watched my breakdowns, they said it was like I was reading their minds.

Namsaknoi on Lawrence Kenshin

Namsaknoi is a key mentor of Buakaw, the greatest kickboxer of all time representing Muay Thai. But even more than that, Namsaknoi owns the highest win rate in Muay Thai history at 95% wins in 300 fights, at one point reigning at the top without a single defeat for 6 years straight.

Chatri Sityodtong on Lawrence Kenshin

Here's the founder of One Championship, Chatri Sityodtong, on my work. Chatri Sityodtong is undeniably one of the most influential martial artists in Asia today. He was also touted by the legendary coach Yodtong Senanan–the greatest coach in Muay Thai history–to be the conservator of Sityodtong Muay Thai.

“Lawrence Kenshin is a striking genius.  I am a big fan of his videos and analysis.  He understands the nuances and intricacies of striking completely.  And he breaks everything down in a simple, clean, and effective manner.  Whether you are a beginner or an expert, you will always learn something new from his videos.”

What an honor it was to hear the greatest striker in MMA say that I was giving his blueprint away... and that by doing so, it'll force him to keep adapting in order to stay ahead of his great opponents. Watching the "Style Bender's" rise has been one of my favorite journeys to follow.
