These six moves are very similar to yesterday’s blocks. The main difference is these deflect an incoming punch at a slighter angle. It’s easier to think of them as an angled deflection rather than a hard block.
Unless you are on the receiving end…

Basic Blocks
http://youtu.be/S0jDnBwGM_4
These six basic blocks work to deflect an incoming punch to my head or upper torso.
The passive draw; give a target only to take it away.
The idea is to draw an attackers’ punch and then block. The attacker must strike first and where I am ready to defend. So in order to work, the blocks will already have to be in the beginning position to block or they will be too slow.

Roundhouse Kick with the Ball of the Foot
http://youtu.be/JcUQkoKIiEQ
Again, I show the offset kick today with two methods of advancement.
I either slide in or shift forward and then lash out with my kick.
The main difference between the offset kick and the roundhouse kick is that my hips turn more when I execute the roundhouse kick.
The roundhouse kick also makes a good choice for striking the side of the leg, the side of the body or to the groin of someone who is facing me at an angle.
Today I am striking with the ball of the foot (even with shoes on, I still use the ball of the foot).
Because I am using a front view, it is easy to see the difference between an offset kick and a roundhouse kick.

Offset Snap Kick with the Ball of the Foot
http://youtu.be/O80ILNj_DKc
Again, I show the offset kick today with two methods of advancement.
I either slide in or shift forward and then lash out with my kick.
The main difference is that the offset comes in at a bit of an angle. This makes it a good choice for striking the side of the leg, the side of the body or to the groin of someone who is facing me at an angle.

Front Thrust Kick with the Ball of the Foot
http://youtu.be/gFJd1Ome3H0
I show this kick with two methods of advancement, shuffle forward or shift forward.
The main difference between the front snap kick and the front thrust kick is the snap goes up into the scrotum of the attacker while the thrust travels forward into the abdomen of the attacker.

Roundhouse Kick with the Top of the Foot
http://youtu.be/ewfhSdiw-so
I show the Roundhouse kick today with the same two methods of advancement as yesterday and the day before.
I either slide in or shift forward and then lash out with my kick.
The main difference between the offset kick and the roundhouse kick is the roundhouse is done with my body sideways to my attacker.
