Stance, Posture and Defense

When it comes to the basics of a solid Stance/Posture Rodney King (of South Africa) is the MAN!!! I've trained in over 22 different fighting systems/martial arts and for teaching a fundamental defense to all types of punches, kicks, and clinching his is the Quickest to learn and easiest to put into practice, and THAT is what you need! Something that WORKS when all else doesn't and that gives you a strong foundation or even a default for when the flashier stuff doesn't work. Believe me few strategies can be applied so easily and so well to boxing, Muay Thai Kickboxing, and Mixed Martial Arts as this.

In short, when the shit hit's the fan go Crazy Monkey!

Enjoy and Improve! This is a INCREDIBLE series I HIGHLY suggest you give it your attention!

Clinching 101: How to Pummel for Underhooks

How to pummel for the underhooks for Wrestling, Submission Wrestling, Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, Muay Thai, Boxing, and Mixed Martial Arts. The underhook is one of the single most dominant grips in the clinch but is highly misunderstood and under utilized after you learn how to use your underhooks and use your footwork to manipulate your opponent it opens up your game to tons of strikes, takedowns, and submissions standing and on the ground.

ENJOY!
