KRAV MAGA: Stick Defense Series- Stick Strike From Above (Outer Defense)

Stick Defense Series- Stick Strike From Above (Outer Defense)
Description/ Script
The attacker swings a stick towards your upper body, from above.
Steps:
1. When you see that the attacker is holding a stick, calm down; do not focus all of your attention on his weapon. Focusing on his weapon will cause you to panic, which can be fatal.
2. When the stick is swung in you direction, quickly step diagonally forward, and raise your arm in a slightly slanted position. Guide the opponent's swinging arm to the side of your body using his own momentum.
3. Grab the opponent wrist on the arm that is holding the weapon. Twist his wrist forward, making it face his body. Then put your second hand on top of your first hand, giving you complete control over his wrist joint.
4. Kick to the groin violently, to stun the attacker.
5. Press downwards on the attacker's wrist with both hands, while simultaneously twisting to the side, this will throw your opponent to the floor.
6. Once the attacker is on the floor, you can either pin him down, or run for help. Remember this move is for defensive purposes only. Do not try this unless you're properly trained, or have proper supervision.

again, none of this is krav maga, I've been teaching since 1995. Not saying it's bad or good, just not KM

[howtokravmaga]

As you know (after all those years of teaching KM) there are many possible good defenses to each situation. In KM they usually teach, What we show in our video: "Stick Strike From Above Inner Defense", yet it just doesn't cover every angle/situation. That why its best to be Armed with both defenses.

If you would like to input some real constructive criticism, you have the credentials and we would be glad.

Thanks for your support.

you lost about 0.3 - 0,5 seconds before you grab his hand... btw nice video...

[NickerTheMighty]

Just like some other people said - I'm not gonna judge if it's good or bad but this is not a Krav Maga technique. I honestly don't understand why would you present a different curriculum, different moves, different 'problem solutions' (at least totally different from what Eyal Yanilov's Krav Maga Global teaches around the world) but insist on calling it Krav Maga.

very strange voice) thnx, btw maybe make this video a little slowly?

[1nkarn8]

@howtokravmaga I have been studying Krav Maga (civilian level 4) for almost 5 years, Krav Maga teaches essentially the same defense for specific attacks. Also, how many people are walkinng around "armed" as you stated? I am sure that your Krav Maga is somewhat effective, but attempting to grab an assailants hand when in motion is extremely difficult.

[1nkarn8]

In no way is this Krav Maga technique.

[badass98kx250]

Very good video bud

[rudvicpwr]

What if the attacker is way taller than me?

[mrderekevan]

Nice demonstrations, but the voice has got to go!
