ELBOW DEFENCE
SIMPLE TRAINING DRILL

Heres a simple but fun trainingdrill using double forearm defence vs horizontal elbow strike.

- Start in some type of grappling situation (we're using high clinch 50/50)
- Break partners balance and strike with a combination that finishes w/ horizontal elbow
- Defend the strikes, using elbow defence last, then counter w/ different options.

TIP: Great for a mixed level class. You can teach some grappling, strikes and defences those strikes. Lastly, add the elbow defence. Depending on the students level you can increase/ decrease the resistance and speed of the drill.

DRILL! DRILL! DRILL! ENJOY!

STRIKING ON THE GROUND
CHOKES RELEASES FROM BOTTOM

Monday class i was lucky to have odd numbers...so I got to train aswell as teach.

TRAIN YOUR GROUND SKILLS

As an instructor you need to work on keeping your ground skills solid, so you can teach your students properly.

- floor agility
- get ups
- striking top/ bottom
- solutions
- resistance
- sparring

REMEMBER: In self-defence law you need a very good reason to be striking someone from a position where you can leave. If you can escape safely do it ASAP.

SWINGING PUNCH DEFENCE
360 OUTSIDE DEFENCE

Never have a conversation with an agitated person with your hands down. Never.

Action is faster than reaction and its incredibly difficult to react and block a swinging punch.

Never trust that person enough to give them the confidence or opportunity to take that shot.

Respond hard and fast. Solve the problem. Get home safe.

SUNDAY GROUND CLASS
SIDE CONTROL & ESCAPES

Understanding the principles of the side control position....how to control a person from this position, strike to create space, how to use frames to escape.

Looked at the following:

- position in general
- controllng the head
- using strikes, bites, gouges to create space
- knee/ elbow principle
- inserting frames
- regain full guard
- butterfly sweep
- escaping out the back
- using momentum/ Turkish getup escape

Groundwork is hard. To be proficient it requires practice. It requires resistance. When its sucks keep working.

VEHICLE SELF-DEFENCE WORKSHOP
DOMINO'S CAB DRIVERS

I have been asked regularly to help our Jersey taxi & cab driving community with specific self-defence training that they can use to keep them safe at work. Like alot of service areas they have seen an increase in disrespectful and aggressive behaviour these past few years.

The parameters were for it to...
1. Practical
2. Easily applicable
3. Within the Health & Safety/ Criminal Law framework

All achieved and explained 👌

The workshop looked at:

- inside/ outside the vehicle
- scale of force
- legal framework
- preemptive action
- getting out of vehicle correctly
- defending punches & grab
- choke & headlock releases
- sharp objects (knife) threats
- troubleshooting

Everyone has a right to go to work and feel safe at all times. Self-defence workshops give people the knowledge and tools how to feel this way and take action if needed.
