karate weapons

i propose 2 bunkai applications of the first block of kata nijushiho. first application on a kizami zuki. absorption, strikes underneath, opening, hold the arm, armbar, pivot and double strikes in morote zuki. what is very important in this sequence is to keep in touch after deflecting the attack.

here and here i keep contact. then turn the palm of your hand towards the sky, to have the elbow in the direction of the ground. then i can apply my arm bar, either like this or so. then press to create the lock.

be careful, my two arms do not move. my left is a pivot. and it is with the right hand that i push down to create the elbow lock. then, i open by pivoting and i finalize with a double strike. faster now. of course, if it goes to the ground, you have to adapt and hit him on the ground. for the second application, i will not demonstrate it quickly because i may really hurt jason. he grabs my lapel + a hook punch. i block by passing on the back. in the kata i am doing this movement. i will strike him at the level of the occipital bone.

my right grabs his wrist, i can squeeze on vital points, and directly, i will hit him with a direct punch. while keeping the contact, i continue with a neck lock. very dangerous. pivot to bring him to the ground and hit him with a double strike. i hope you enjoyed this video and if so: first start with direct strikes like oi zuki, mae geri or thing like that. then you can defend yourself against grabs, strangulations for exemple. thanks for watching, and if you like it like it, share it and leave me a comment below. see you soon for a new video
