The technique of the month
Eyal Yanilov, KM head Instructor, has been conducting Instructors Course and further education for local instructors in Melbourne Australia. While there he took a short time to show and demonstrate a technique: defending a straight punch - left against left.
The meaning of the technique - U defend with your front hand a straight punch delivered with the diagonal hand, as left vs. left. Send your palm diagonally forward to meet the attacking hand (better meet it at the wrist area). Then continue with a sweeping motion with the palm while sending the elbow forward and up. The elbow now serves as protection. Then in a fluent motion counterattack. First with a hammer punch sideways and then with other attacks as needed. Tactical finish should be done according to the situation.
Nice to see the sliding defense technique by the master himself, I learned this at P1 level :).
