Here’s a great excerpt from Bas Rutten’s Big DVDs of Combat where Bas shows defenses and counters for round kicks. These are virtually identically to the Krav Maga techniques we’ve been training for the past several weeks, so much of this should be familiar.
Advanced Class Fight Gear Reminder
Just a reminder to everyone attending the Krav Maga Advanced class that you should always bring all your fight gear. Even when we are not running the sparring curriculum specifically, we will often include fighting in skills training and drills. If you do not have your gear, you cannot participate in class.
If you are new to the Advanced class and have not yet purchased the required gear, please do so before attending.
A Visual Guide to Sparring Rotation
What’s the hardest part of sparring? Getting hit in the face? Mixing punches and kicks? Seeing peripherally out of that stupid helmet?
Nope.
The round is over; it’s time to rotate.
In the spirit of Krav Maga Sparring Drills for Visual Learners, I present a visual guide to sparring rotation.
Version 1
At the end of the round, everyone returns to their starting positions, then everyone moves one position to their left. If there is an odd number of students, the student in the bottom left corner is the next to be “odd person out” and returns to the rotation in the following round.
Version 2
At the end of the round, everyone returns to their starting positions, then everyone moves one position to their left except the student in the bottom left corner. This ensures everyone gets to spar one another.
Wednesday 12.14.11: Clinch Fighting
As we wind down the sparring cycle, we’re going to take a break from the freestyle sport fighting we’ve been doing and focus on some different techniques and drills to help round-out the skills you’ve been developing over the last couple months.
For next week Wednesday’s 6:30pm Advanced class (Dec 14), we will be training some basic clinch techniques for very close-range fighting. We’ll even make use of the spiffy wall mats to do some MMA-style drills.
Notes:
- This will be a technical—though physically demanding—class. We will do little, if any, freestyle sparring.
- Please bring fingerless MMA gloves if you have them. They’re not required, but some techniques will be easier with them than 16-oz gloves. We will not be sparring with them.
- Remember the pummeling warm-up? Yeah, we’re probably going to do that for starters.
