Keith's drills are representative of the ebbs and flows that we can experience in a moment of contact with an opponent. His deliberation is to unlock your mind about the possibilities that you can work within these drills that cause you to start from a known structure that breaks down and compels you to move in response. This is valid and 100% great training. He doesn't miss one range and mixes lines. What else can you ask for? Superb!
What's good about this with a grappler is that you understand how to move without looking where you're going. You can feel where your opponent is giving you a better chance on countering and escaping. Great work!
This so-called "attachment" occurs in real street fights, in multiple fighter scenarios, maybe you're pinned against a wall, a crowded room, etc. This stuff HAPPENS .. it's real. It's very common to find yourself in this clinch range very quickly. In my opinion, that is JKD. Doing what works in a real fight, not someone throwing a little jab and slapping it all over the place. I'd like to see more people post videos of their students gloving up and going at it ... I know Keith's guys do.
Maybe it finishes with a sweet little takedown against an unresisting opponent. In reality... it's a joke. I find what Keith teaches, while it looks like a drill, is in reality some sensational clinchwork/infighting techniques. Not that slap/slap takedown stuff that doesn't work. So what does "teaching from attachment" really mean? That's he's teaching clinchwork? Where's the problem there? I just don't get it.
Keith, great stuff as usual, allow me to offer my 2 cents regarding this so-called "attachment", this is only my opinion ... This "attachment" is in reality the clinch range. It isn't for beginning students only, its part of fighting. It's another range. When I watch some others JKD videos, I see some very similar looking techniques, all coming off a weak straight jab that is never intended to hit it's target, and a subsequent, slap/slap/slap nonsense that is very Kenpo-like in it's nature.
Great stuff as usual. Jkd vids usually bore me and have a hodgepodge of useless techniques or too tight of an adherence to a certain stage of B-Lees training but yours works the jkd principles and i see the evolution in it too, keep it up!
i admit thats pretty good i know we got are difference but, i can see your a good teacher i just train different i dont train with attachment but i do understand why you have to teach beginning students that way
Good work Keith - thanks for uploading!
