Angles of Strikes with the Cane in the Third Grip

http://youtu.be/jAaPhm85vyo

As the video shows, there are seven different geometric angles that the cane may travel through with both hands gripping it in the Third Grip.

Making these strikes effective becomes a matter of understanding which angles work best against which targets and practicing them until it is a reflex.

At first this drill may seem to have no bearing on improving bare handed skills…But there i!

Actually, the strikes with the cane in the Third Grip use the body in the same way a bare ahnd strike uses it. The distance is Kicking Distance. The recovery of the cane teaches that Kicks and strikes (with Bare Hands) must be swift and clean.
