Attack The Attack: Empty hand Against Knife

ATTACK THE ATTACK Empty Hand against Knife: In this tiny sliver of training we focus on attacking the attack to get ahead in the timing and create time and space to deploy our own weapon. The grunting you hear in the video is not for effect, they are attacking the weapon arm…albeit not full force but enough to demonstrate that a full attack is likely to mess things up from the get go. As I’ve said for years, “Knife tapping is NOT nice tapping”. You destroy that arm, you don’t pass it to give them another chance to attack again. Attacking the weapon arm before they can swing through the power arc to destroy or hurt as well as disrupt the attackers arm and redirecting it down and pin to their body. Immediately following through with a left hand angle #1 to attack the bridge to drop/disrupt the attackers focus/attention to get ahead in the timing so you can control or create time and space to disengage and deploy your own weapon.
