Want more techniques for Contact Combat?

I'm teaching defense against a choke from the front. Alright.

A choke , when he chokes this is a relatively simple solution. You can punch him, you can punch him, you can poke him in the eye, you can do very many things from that place. However, all of those things that I told you about are toys. And if you want to retain information quick, in the art we try to develop material or work in material that is basically your natural instinct. And if somebody grabs your throat this is a natural instinct to raise your hands up. What we want to remember as what we can't work power against power. So we always have to make him as weak as we can. So, just so you know understand here he is extremely strong, so is he also very powerful. If you try to push him that way and naturally the weakest part of his arm will be the farther out towards the stomach. To make sure that this becomes effective, we also want to strike him at the same time. So it's not just I'm going to block his hands and then I'm going to strike him.

What I'm trying to do is block his hands and strike him at the same time. So even if he's so powerful, and I couldn't fight that off that kick to the groin is going to weaken him a little bit and give me the opportunity to open up gap. It's important for the people who's watching it to remember that naturally from here I'm going to continue and striking him in anyway I can. However, for the purpose of teaching it we are just showing you the basic motions. Thank you.

Come on guys, do it a couple of times, slow. We're going to raise our hands up and bring them in, take your elbows to the rear. Again. And one. Again, and one.

Now, naturally you have to understand that for us its in the art, the most important thing is to strike somebody, if you forgot to do any defensive motion that you forgot, the most important thing for you to remember is that you must hit him some how . And I've should have started from your knee but this is too easy, so now you're going to combine the knee and the motions together of the hand. Okay, and one, knee and hand. Again. One, and boom, and one, and boom, and one, and boom.

And let's add another motion to it which is we gonna back and hit him and then we just gonna open up the gap and make sure that we are okay. So, we go one, hit, and open up gap. Let's go again. Hit, up hit it and provide some space. Let's go again, a little more speed. Again. Again.

So guys please, pair doubles, start choking. Get closer to him, I don't need continuations. Again. Very nice. Okay. Thank you very much. Face forward.

My teacher taught me this tonight. He also taught me a finisher. The guy in the video did everything correct. My teacher taught me how to go in and use the knees more. However what he just taught in this video is effective.

That first in the nuts was awesome, I used that once, guaranteed success, look no further.

[zupinu]

so far, most moves requires a kick in the nuts lol

I love this guy. I'm a Marine that has had to use hand to hand fighting skills twice in my life while in Combat. Everything he teaches is basically what we used. What he teaches is realistic and REAL. Definitely pay attention if you're not in the military... OUTSTANDING WORK!

Best advice is to Practice! Practice! Practice! various defences moves correctly from various martial arts to deal with this type of attack so when you find yourself in a real life situation your muscle memory will select and pull the right move out of the bag for you.

After he started to introduce the knee, I was waiting for him to ask the DJ to drop a dope beat.

Kidding aside, great self defense vid. Simple and effective.

[waynesaladeen]

I come here for my quarantine tutorials.
I've been watching your videos for years as a trusted source.
I've even recommended associates that go to your city looking for a place to train Krav Maga to look you up.
Im about to begin my morning training now. Kida

I needed to know this a month before my cousin was kicking my face and chocking me just because I wanted some alone time (it was not playing)

[callsign_ramrod]

Wish I knew this yesterday, thanks dad 😃

[dakerfalah]

Thanks my grandma didn't stand a chance

why you didnt open dance club after krav maga class ? 

[rhondahoward]

So let's talk about the different levels of choke holds. That classic two-handed throat grab, which is what Homer Simpson does to Bart Simpson, is _pathetically_ easy to defend yourself against. Sure, it's an easy choke, but the least effective. Now when you get chokeholds from _behind_ where the guy's arm and elbow make a "triangle" around your throat, _then_ you're in trouble, because that's a blood choke.

This actually saved me, some dude 5 years older than me tried choking me, I used this got his arms off me and kicked him in the nuts and embarrassed him, now he doesn’t pick on me I felt so powerful lmao 😂

If you face an attack by a trained striker/boxer,  knowing how to slip and parry can be essential skills to train.  The punch blocking and striking skills shown here can be very effective as a counter to a slower or sloppier attack.  When to make the transition from parry and slip to getting inside can be essential to train for in the event of a skilled(boxing) attacker.

This defence is good. but it has some problems. I mentioned them in my video on my channel. one of them is the opponent headbutts which may happen when the attacker is taller than you
