Wednesday 12.14.11: Clinch Fighting

12.09.11 By Patrick 3 Comments

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.

      Only Level 1 students who have seen all of the Fundamentals curriculum plus hooks and uppercuts. So, in your case, yes!
