High Low Center Inside Blocking Drill

 http://youtu.be/18BcvAR4GKg
Basic idea is to cover various heights with alternate arm blocks. The point is to make the blocks as easy and simple to use as blinking yet with the power to stop a hard punch or kick.

Combinations off of the Side Kick

All the combinations that I show today are done against a stationary target. What boxers used to call a ‘catcher’.

Combinations off of the Offset Kick

 http://youtu.be/lf7IfVWTdpE

Like a straight in Front Kick, the Offset Kick is quick yet strong. The offset has the advantage of being able to tag an attacker who is positioned on an angle to me.

Combinations of off the Front Kick

 http://youtu.be/s1IrnxfN5sE

Leading with the Front Kick in Kisae is a bit different that simply punching because I do not fall into a stance after kicking. I kick, step down no deeper than shoulder width and punch.

Combinations off of the Lead Backfist

 http://youtu.be/3Anohr4x410


Almost the same as yesterday except that I am in a Leading Horse Stance. I use the Lead Backfist to measure my distance as well as injure my attacker. If they are efficient enough to defend against the initial backfist, my follow ups should do the job.

Combinations of off the Jab

 http://youtu.be/pwCDYE-EI_o

Working the heavy bag tonight. I slide in while leading with the jab. I follow up with another punch or two before withdrawing. Nothing fancy, just basic stuff.

Endlessly fascinating…
