Today I am performing two separate Elbow Strikes

The first is a Fore Elbow Thrust to the Front

The second is an Upper Elbow Strike to the Side.

The videos show them well.

The first thing I would add is to make it look good.

Once it looks good, the second thing I would concentrate on is developing confidence.

In other words, I strike the heavy bag with light fast moves that look like nothing.

The effect on the bag is what I wan to judge the effectiveness of my strike.

Today I am demonstrating two Upper elbow Strikes.

One is downward and the other is rearward.

I use the heavy bag to demonstrating power and focus.

But I go quite slow.

It is like that old saying, “Slow leads to Smooth and Smooth Leads to Fast.”

I can use the arm by itself or I can turn my hips into the movement.

Both versions work but I turn into the strikes(s) to add power and focus.

I have decided to make more videos.

I am sending out a big thanks to Kurt for encouraging me to make more.

This will simply be a continuation of what I was doing before.

Short videos about techniques and training drills regarding KISAE Kempo.
