16/6/16 Stick v knife and grappling


STICK v KNIFE
Knife hand also has a glove on it. The best defence is to defang the snake. 3 long rounds of each drill.

Knife feeds the 5 angles, stick moves and hits the hand with a single shot

As above but hit twice with the stick

Knife feeds any angle and stick replies with single shot

As above but knife holder also uses the empty hand and stick replies with any shot and constant movement

This type of trading is incredibly draining both physically and mentally. You have to stay sharp, alert and relaxed.

GRAPPLING
1: Feeder throws the jab, as you pak and finger strike to the eyes. Overlook the arm and step around to his 3/4. Your head is now tight to the back of his shoulder and your right arm is around on his right trapezium. As you step back with the right you take him down maintaining arm control. The left knee is now on the floor and strike to the head. Step over with the right leg and pull in tight to close all his gaps and prevent his escape. From here, posture up and rotate left (away from the head) for the submission.

2: Feeder throws a jab-cross, catch the jab and hit over the right cross with your own right hand, move into to throw an uppercut (body outside his arm, punch inside his arm), sandwich grip on the wrist and step in for the elbow break - you put your hips next to his, you are both facing the same way. Drop your level and turn to the right, keeping the grip for the outward first turn takedown (kotegaeshi variation). As he hits the floor, put the shin behind his head as this stop him rolling out of it. Ensure his palm is flat against your hip, extend (lift) his arm and turn to your left keeping the palm on the tip. From here he will tap as there is tremendous torque on the wrist.

SENSITIVITY AND MOVEMENT MASTERCLASS
This was the essence of the class; feeling the depth of their energy and strength, the direction of the energy and their structure. A secondary theme running through the class was using their structure against them, extension of their structure, rotation of limbs and body movement and no strength!

Grip break on the wrist - rotation, extension, changing levels, sweeping off and passing, huen sau, immovable elbow

Grip break on the elbow - circular body motions

A double grips, any grip, any energy, B moves to escape

A kneels and grips

A kneels and B grips

Playing with it all together

2/6/16 footwork, single stick, empty hand and lock flow


SHADOW BOXING
Moving to get warmed up and lose

FOOTWORK
Male and female patterns plus the x

The diamond

SINGLE STICK.
Main learning point was keeping the sticking shoulder forward despite which foot is forward.
Single stick and the male and female footwork - the big X and 2 strikes on each step, forehand then backhand. Back left, back right, front right, front left and continue this pattern.

Walking the circle

Forwards and backwards

Putting all three motions (footwork patterns) together.

Figure 8 pattern (across and up the centre) with static footwork but plenty of body movement directing the stick work. Then adding all three previous footwork patterns.

EMPTY HAND
Using the same striking motions - the hammerfist, it has been applied in MMA for years.

From unattached: hammer (pak sau) and the other hand comes over and hammers into the side of the head/neck then move around him and hammer fist from a variety of angles.

Against the jab: Same entry as above, hammer with the pak sau hand then double slap elbow across the eye socket.

Against the jab cross: cover the jab then as above.

LOCKFLOW

1 - 8
