Kneeling Lead Downward Parry / Slide in Offset Kick to Outside of Thigh

One defense against a kick to the outside of the thigh is to kneel down and parry the kick. This parry is also the beginning of a possible counter attack. This is not the only way to defend but it does have many advantages.

Kneeling Palm Heel Block / Slide in Front Kick to Groin

This week I'm working with Jason again. I'd like to take this opportunity to thank him for his hard work and unstinting support in all of our efforts here.

This is a two man drill designed to teach many things. Distance, timing, focus, even the ability to handle the unforeseen are improved.
