Class notes: Snatch attacks
This class was one of those session where I should have filmed because that would explain in much clearer terms than what follows. I guess this is an unusual post in that if you were there it will hopefully act as a reminder. If you missed class then it will probably not make too much sense.
3 drill: recycling the hands for the initial chop. This was chopping with the 'wrong' hand in 3 drill.
Pak lap drill: Partner simply throws continuous punches and you control along the power lines using lap and pak to keep him at distance and under control.
Once the basic roll is sorted you can start to add the change. The change is a double up of either the pak or the lap to get you on the other side.
Once you have got the roll of the drill and the change then you can begin to insert punches. Start by punching on the lap attack. Get your rhythm, timing and distancing then start attacking off the pak. You will also need to add subtle hip rotation to the punches to give them extra body behind them.
Next when you feel comfortable with the above start inserting the inside gate lap. This happens by turning the hand over after the pak to guide that punch to the opposite shoulder. Punches can also be added to the inside gate lap.
Martin and Trist both demonstrated the whole drill fro punching on single attacks all the way up to attacking of the 3 control points. To me it looked like a blur and something that is a long way away from being good let alone competent at. Martin then took it one step further and showed the whole sequence from snatch to 3 drill to pak lap and back again.
Martin also gave a brief demo of practising solo in the air.
Pak lap drill becoming a snatch attack drill from long range - pre contact range in sparring or match fighting.
Applying the snatch attack to short lap the from arm of the guard then pak with the same hand to his rear hand then to insert your own choice of attack depending on angle and distance. Knees, head control, neck and wrist control,
Inserting the pak lap control into the 3 drill. To get it going, the person who wants to apply the technique needs to start with the lap and palm strike. This will give you his attacks then three of yours to get it going.
This as usual was one of the sessions whereby time went too quick and more time is needed to practise. I guess that is what the next 40 years are for!

Class notes: Basketball players and dwarves
3 drill:
Attacking off the first attack - punch under the chop forwards.
Punching distance for this attack: Aim for the chin and be closer to his potential attacks. Aim for the nose to have a higher degree of safety behind your punch. Sky the arm as it gives you more extension.
Groin elbow to nose attack from the backfist then move over for the lap and punch.
Ben forearm hammer of death instead of the backfist. This will give you the energy for the uppercut with the other hand.
If they defend high you can turn it into a standing arm bar; rev the wrist, pressure the tricep for standing control. Go for the wrist and fold his hand on to his shoulder blade for a single arm chicken wing.
3 drill sparring with all. I was useless with crap attacks and defending the whole time. Jamie said he did this with Ayyaz and he did not hold back and got stuck into J. J loves it!!
Footwork: the four analogies:
1: Each foot moves the same distance so at the end of the step you are balanced and powerful.
2: No tight rope walking. Have the feet hips width apart.
3: Be ready = go and don't delay.
4: Thumbs up = positive and engaged legs
Drilling footwork by pushing and piston punching the partner. Leading to looking for the head and arm trap. If this gets loose then apply the seat belt, 'wash' the face so the hand goes to the back of the neck for the head control. Look to knee from here.
Grip breaks:
Grab the grabber:
1: Vain basketball player - same side grab going down - fingers through hair and folding the elbow over his forearm
2: Angry basketballer - flaps his arms - cross grab-grab the forearm
3: Angry dwarf - he's on minimum wage serving tables (defence = tan sau)
4: Vain dwarf - Grab the grabber. You had to be there to fully appreciate my poorly remembered words.
Nev v Nish double grab of death defence: Smash the thumbs or p'eng/hinge arms and step deeply with a shoulder barge
ALWAYS GO FOR THE GRAB WHEN GRABBED
THEM GRABBING YOU IS LIKE YOU GRABBING THEM AS YOU ALWAYS KNOW WHERE THEY ARE!!

Class notes: a maximum of 2 moves
3 drill warm up: It still amazes me how 4 humans feel so different when doing this. The type of energy, the direction and the little nuances each person has. It was a chance to both warm up and revise the material from last week.
Heavy back fist from the elbow pulling back. Don't flick and roll or snap it over. Should have depth, length and forward pressure.
Change pressure: pull the lap and send the fist to his face, you should move him to enable your bastard change (the undefendable chop/right cross).
His centreline and punch pressure
Lap directions: vary it for different relations and gaps in his defence.
Forward pressure: all attacks and defences
Hunting for the revved wrist in the 3 drill: This was a new addition to the drill where instead of applying the lap to the wrist or forearm, you hunt for the base of the hand and apply more torque to the arm. This will better enable the DWL entry.
Defend the centre on the outside so he can lap and punch and then go for the arm drag.
4 variants of the arm drag from the inside and outside wrist control (with punch down the centre)
Arm drag to back shoulder and hip control:
When done to you this feels most unpleasant, firstly because you are spinning around with your head below heart height, secondly, they are not applying much force and so are riding your attempts to escape. Below are the 4 variants of the arm drag entry to get to their back and hip.
lap right and punch left starting position: arm drag - pull the hook, shoulder drives through their shoulder to where they are not, just in front of their foot. Break the footwork rule of feet together, ride the bull, torque the wrist.
- buh the arm, and slip the left hand to hook the upper arm for the AD and reach around and grab the hip with the right.
- roll over and pull the elbow back if the pressure is going across the centre
- pressure being pressed into you and he is not letting you have the arm, go over for the DWL
- same side arm drag
These can be applied on the inside and the outside of the arm from the initial position as well as left and right handed.
Arm drag to arm shear head control - extended arm, if they stand then go into the shoulder clinch with the underhook. You remain in a dominant position throughout.
Uppercut from wrist control and punch to his centre. He blocks the punch. Keep the pressure on with the punch and lean the shoulder slightly into him. Turn the hip and the shoulder for the uppercut (hand on his wrist) and go back to wrist control. It looks like a rotation of the spine, nothing is extended. Tight small movements are the key. Continue to hit off until you get the chance to uppercut under his forearm. From here your hand will appear trapped between his arm and his chest. However, this is the perfect set up for the DWL>
DWL out of MT clinch defence.
Boxing drills:
jab and jab counter
jab and jab, left hook counter
jab and jab, right cross counter
the Fedor entry - long range entry with the overhand right to get wrist control against a good striker who is making your day miserable
This is a great way to help you close the gap in a relatively safe fashion. Strikers seeing the big overhand right will want to defend, block or cover up. You are not trying to land, just trick their eyes and brain into that. The split second they cover them you are on them like a drunk on a kebab.

Class notes: be calm in the chaos
3 drill
chin down on the chop
alter the change to be a lap and right cross and roll with it

or
turn the hips and throw the right hand
attacking with the attacks from the 3 drill - he leads with a jab, inside gate lap against his lead hand and chop in - lap and backfist, lap and right cross
grip breaks revision - grab the grabber
inside gate pak sau against the lead hand in guard or jab. it must be out of range because you are then protected against the right hand. if you muck up you just have the hand and you are out of range. Then come in with a jab or chop
