Your best bet is to start training Muay Thai.

Kabuki- Great post. It's really difficult to try to put all the subtle movements into words.

I had the good fortune of training with Greg Nelson at the NW Muay Thai Camp last month. The guy is freakin' amazing at clinch work. I haven't watched his instructionals yet, but I'm going to buy them asap.
http://www.mmaacombatzone.com/purchase.htm <--- you can buy them there.

I learned from Ajarn Chai, and Danny Inosanto was in my group, but I probably learned the most from Greg.
