🇺🇸 DON’T get punched in the FACE!

Excellent explanations and demonstrations, Shihan. Simple and effective. I especially like the final technique - where you use the natural "flinch reflex" that we all have - as a practical defensive application, with a follow up/escape technique. Keep up the awesome work - this channel is so helpful to those who want to have a deeper understanding of their chosen martial art. OSU!

coming from Ashihara, I would add that the last technique can transition into a mawashi uke clinch -> maki komi nage if you follow-up by stepping out to the left. add a knee to the face/body while clinched to really bring the pain. osu, great vid!

Excellent content. We in Shotokan use kiaia and don't use Ossu.

[@ShihanTomCallahan]

We ALSO Kiai. This is much different than OSU. I have another video on the meaning of OSU! I appreciate your comment and thank you for watching.
