Key Principles and Skills

• Non-resistance – relax, don’t tense when grabbed – don’t be there

• Circle Principle – lead an attack into a circle

• Blending with opponent’s movement – just enough so the attacker still thinks they have control of you

• Using 90 and 180 step – use of body weight, not arm strength.

• Sword movement for deflecting punches – presenting a triangle to the attacking line

Multiple Grabbing

• Demonstrate defence against dynamic grabs to wrists – front, side and rear – using releases - or release/strike.

• Includes defence against punch - use 90 and
  180 footwork

• Importance of head movement – don’t look at feet
