Muay Boran Principles of Tiger and Lion

In some Muay Boran styles, there are two Wai 
Kru Ram Muay movements called Tiger Step;   Seua Yang, and Lion Step; Sing Ayatra here 
is grandmaster Amnat showing them these two   steps might seem to have no fighting application 
but an expert master like the master Amnat was   knows that Thai masters of the past concealed the 
art and its secrets in the ceremonial movements   grand master Amnat after 20 years of studying Muay 
Boran was able to extrapolate these principles   by studying the ancient thai book of the art 
of war called Pichai Songkran how to win the   war these two steps hide a principle called 
Ruam Awuth which means combining the weapons   lion means combining from the same side the 
tiger means combining from the opposite sides   but they also teach you how to generate power 
since when attacking with two weapons at the   same time you generate less power than you would 
by striking with the individual strikes using the   kinetic chain so you generally focus on only one 
of the various weapons combined to maximize the   damage look closely at the tiger step look at the 
arm notice what he arm those that gesture means   traction when combining weapons from opposite 
sides if you have contact with an opponent's   arm or neck you can pull it towards you greatly 
increasing the damage now watch the lion step see how this step emphasizes the fall the 
secret of the lion step is with shifting the   bodyweight forward in the fastest possible way 
this means explosiveness a quick and powerful   jump combined with the rotation of the torso 
launches all our bodies towards the opponent   literally blitzing against him and dramatically 
increasing the damage of the strike these two principles were originally only related 
to Ruam Awuth but in reality, they are not limited   to it and many techniques already come combined 
with one of them necessarily requiring to jump   or to pull a limb for this reason in my 
style the Modern Muay Boran I've gone a   step further and extrapolated them making them two 
universal principles which can be combined with   all the weapons the principle of the tiger: 
Duung (traction) the principle of the lion:   Gradot (explosiveness) these two principles 
are complementary and both essential in a fight
