Fighting Stance Secrets - Tips For The Best Basic Martial Arts Stance -Win Fights With MMA Technique

The best fighting stance is meant to keep you safe, but some martial arts stances are better than others. I've combined boxing technique with MMA technique to create what I believe to be the be the best self-defense stance possible (or self-offense... I don't care what you do with this stuff). howtofightnow.com
If you follow these details, you will be able to move effectively to both attack your opponent and defend yourself. Consistently returning to this position will make you a powerful martial artist.
For more lessons on how to fight and how to win fights, visit:
howtofightnow.com
The lessons are FREE... and they're all awesome.
Lot's of people want to learn how to fight, but they have no idea where to look. You can find a lot of street fighting videos on KZbin, and a lot of videos titled "how to win a street fight", but most of them are crap. I personally don't want to learn from some dude punching a couch cushion in his back-yard, with his twitchy girlfriend holding his IPhone camera... but that's just me.
I created the fight smart training program to teach people how to fight with REAL TECHNIQUES that work... I gathered them in my career as a professional fighter. If these techniques work in the cage, they will certainly work in a street fight. A lot of times, I had these moves used against me... and it hurt.
I don't care what your purposes are: self-defense, a personal quest, or just to be a more powerful bully... it doesn't matter. My job is to provide you with the realest fighting moves out there, and to teach you how to fight and win every time. Be sure to check out my website... I have far more video on howtofightnow.com than I have in my KZbin channel.... and they're free.... because I'm cool like that.
Check out the website and good luck learning how to punch, how to kick, how to do Jiu Jitsu, how to do Muay Thai kickboxing, and how to do any of the other Keywords that I'm trying to target by writing this channel description.

[@FightSmartTrav]

Thanks man. I probably had an aneurism coming up with the metaphor, but it works!

[@oistyyy]

Great teacher. Love the comedic view on everything. Makes it easier and more enjoyable.

[@ducati78]

greats vids mate! ive done a couple of seminars with bas, and his and your ideas on stance make so much sense. really great stuff.

[@kyledoak2111]

[@Nikolas100o10oao]

Very good tips.

[@arcadistorias3202]

Good video man keep it up. Loving this channel.

[@FightSmartTrav]

Simile: Her eyes were like pools of water. Metaphor: Here eyes were pools of water. One literary technique is saying that an object is SIMILAR to another. A metaphor states that it IS the object.

[@adrockmstar3239]

FightSmartTrav correct

[@carson12515]

Wouldn’t it be an analogy lol

[@MrRodQ]

Awesome video. Love the light heartedness too. Fighting is serious but also fun

[@HarryFCallahan]

Really great stuff here. Thanks for all the tips.

[@BasLagerweij]

Man, I love your video's! Keep on doing this! Are you planning on doing a tutorial about Spin Kicks?

[@venveng]

Awesome video man. I just subscribed to you yesterday and I'm having a ton of fun learning. I'm a gamer but also loves doing stuff like this. Keep up the good work.

[@anjacob]

Brilliant! All good stuff and so artistically presented. I've subscribed now. Cheers, teacher.

[@jukijunk]

This is awesome, I've learned a lot of insightful things. Thanks!!!

[@robertrenwick395]

lololololololol dude getting his wind knocked out has me cracking up!!! I've watched that part over and over!

[@TheJayman318]

Great teacher...Thank You!!

[@thinkingcaps123]

Great videos, bro! You're a great teacher, and I really like how you guys put a just the right amount of laughs in every video.

[@KarlJenkinsonVoiceActor]

Apologies for the typo below. Brilliantly delivered series of vids. In my classes I always try and get teaching points across with a touch of humour. I wish you well - I'm sure you'll reap the rewards of your efforts.

[@TriggaHandzz]

Great work! Keep it up.

[@SupremeSwaggy]

Your awesome brother!! God bless you!!

[@evosagan2877]

great vids guys. informative and amusing

[@muslimboy8228]

the fat buddy is very funny

[@lorenzoa.fernandezjr.585]

Appreciate Video! Excuse me for butting in, I would love your thoughts. Have you heard about - Chireetler Dread Free Rule (do a google search)? It is an awesome exclusive product for learning self effective defence moves without the normal expense. Ive heard some extraordinary things about it and my buddy at very last got astronomical success with it.

[@AllCityOnline]

Thanks for the heads up, I'll look into that.

[@Buttsexime]

Great stuff man.

[@SkyshipWeatherlight]

FightSmartTrav First of all, I really do love your videos. It's pretty interesting to see the science and background of what's important when fighting. I do have a question regarding the stance: I see why is in kick-/thai boxing the parallel stance preferred, instead of this side stance? Are the advantages of this side stance already covered by the better defense capabilities of the bigger gloves and the fact that you don't have to care about take downs?

[@herropreasesankyou]

What you're doing is awesome. You are really breaking it down to the basics of what FIGHTING is all about: stance, punch, control, movement, defense, thought, confidence. You are clearly explaining MMA level techniques to the layman--strengths, weaknesses, and the possibilities of the human body. My question is: What is the use of your instructions outside of professional sports? Sure, being in control of your physical body and being able to defend yourself at any time is great, but, honestly...

[@heretohear8662]

Hilarious video! Loved it for getting back to the basics I've left behind decades ago.

[@Clipedice1]

Hey bro, I love that found your videos. As much as I love to fight! You da man! Yeah! Shan

[@richardberg4899]

"..never had my wind..." BOOM!!! hahahahaha - been there !!

[@MyKnifeUrLifeVids]

is this guy daniel tosh's more manly twin or what...

[@Ambocom]

Holy shit, you're right!

[@MentalHealthMMA]

The toe to heel part was a great tip.

[@rickjohnson831]

This is great. No one talks about how detrimental being mad can be during a fight. I believe that the oriental philosophy behind the martial arts is for this purpose...to keep your emotions at bay so you can perform at your best. Great site guys. The humor says a lot about your philosophy..You are so much more dangerous when you arent mad and in control..

[@Camarao_Pistola]

Good stuff! keep it up!

[@glennrivera31]

Wow nice video dude insightful.

[@mobilegaming9852]

I love how you put humor into this video.

[@Gavin0403]

hahahah! LOVE IT! HUMOROUS while great teaching :)

[@cokemacaco]

Thanks, I liked it, specially how the elbow act as some kind of shield (y)

[@shaddixamigo]

interessting to compare fighting with the Tag-game. never thought about it. i Like your stuff.

[@redd3080]

Good stuff man.

[@bukotonoryu]

loved the suscribe link part :) kudos, great videos. off topic: better to breath through nose for striking? I'm affraid I m a mouth-breather type :s

[@aliikaimi1932]

Amazing teacher

[@jesusramos4518]

[@PetrowiskRock]

[@immaBeRealWithYou]

[@Dunker5432]

Educational and hilarious. Thumb up! and I just found your channel / website

[@ToBsTahz]

a perfect blend of comedy, and wise words. this dude is tiiiight

[@rawstrife9762]

I noticed your lead foot angles off to almost 45 degrees. How do you check leg kicks from that stance? and doesnt it also make it harder to throw a low kick?

[@fitofuen]

You should make a video of how to control your breathing, i've seen it's an usual problem that could cost you the fight. Keep it up with the awesome videos, i like the useful info and a good laugh :D

[@EsauistheCaucasian]

Hey Esau, the link to your "ultimate training" in the buy section, is it a DVD or a digital download?

[@tookemapatrick352]

thank u for giving your technic

[@blesschild8822]

you rock homie wish i could train with you dude

[@siddharthp009]

Very informative video and also very entertaining. I like that non sense 'captain I... '

[@tryggvisg]

Hey in your the video you talk about faking low and hooking high I notice you have your fight in reverse to what you are saying now. Anything you can say about that? When to switch or just if I´m looking at it wrong or something

[@Drewbreesboss9]

These videos are awesome

[@lbzorz]

this vid is amazing man thank you for the tips. Now, your a big guy, i am NOT your typical fighter, im short and skinny but i know i am much faster than most, what tips are there for small guys?

[@KoNViiKz]

Good tips,the base for all MMA fighters. Any chance to get higher video quality ?

[@sabet3600]

Thanks, it is great.

[@jyethemaster]

please do a video on increasing punch speed!!!

[@genowynn9273]

Awesome!

[@heavyfists8839]

Excellent coach! You should be a pro fighter.

[@coomer8410]

What are your thoughts on using the philly shell in an mma match?

[@nosculgrab2644]

Trav? Is it smart to punch still? I have been practicing open palm for a long time because i was told you can break knuckles and to always step into your opponent no matter what in your first hit for grabbing distance. Is this true?

[@profdan9]

excellent

[@FightSmartTrav]

Thank you... I try :-)

[@vaipuluj]

Lol, I used to do back yard fights all the time and I ended up beating a more skilled opponent because he kicker my elbow and broke his foot

[@vaipuluj]

***** I'm sure that video would go viral

[@splue22]

T

[@FireEater]

Funny but practical ,thanks.

[@DahCakeMan]

You're awesome, Teehee

[@MrEKIM96]

can you please do videos on wrestling and grappling in MMA

[@thetruemorg]

Whom so ever says fights go to the ground I have this to say. "You took them to the ground" and it is silly to say that every post of every KZbin clip that someone posts. Is saying that part of how you get your black belt in ground fighting? "You must say it goes to the ground or you are instantly out of the dojo!" Great video you had me at tag

[@mohammedaref1016]

Thank you

[@jackiechan1287]

Put a video up of you sparring or fight please. Itll help alot

[@chancebridges9706]

You should do one on the best way to hold your gaurd when throwing punches

[@KTtraintowin]

hahah, these are awesome . That guy is a riot . Good instructional , too .

[@Almosteasyese]

I'm a righty, started out orthodox but I've been fighting southpaw for about 5 years. My left shoulder isn't what it used to be and I feel that My left cross is short and awkward compared to my right cross, so my standup feels like it'd be better in orthodox, but I'm used to wrestling with my right side forward and all my takedowns come from that stance. Any ideas?

[@oscarwong67]

Cool, similar to The Bai Jong Stance

[@Scarr420]

Do you train in a Dojo and if so in what state please?

[@rafalej]

hey man, great tips and videos... your friend is funny..

[@liveyourlifeb4end]

Lmaaooo!! U my friend have a new subscriber

[@johnnyng8061]

More powerrrrr! DAHHHHH!!!

[@Annon194]

Lol mobility is like crack, thanks so much for this I can really see all you're teaching me helping some day!

[@FightSmartTrav]

I'll actually be putting out a video about that in the very near future. Subscribe and you'll see it very soon!

[@faron27]

most fight go to the ground... if you can't fight there you might want to rethink fighting all together :} I like your videos very well put together defiantly worth the sub

[@fasic46]

funy + helpful + interesting = i will watch all videos + subsscribe good work man, first good fighting tutorials, that i see...

[@karlhans6678]

Is it a good idea to use different stances in a fight?

[@redfred8572]

In some fights that i see its not the stance or the guard there using its they dont know how to "take a punch" i know it might be a mental thing but is it possible you could do a tutorial in how to take a punch?

[@altermann1ify]

FightsmartTrav: I see you're in PA. You close to Pittsburgh at all?

[@DKerelchuk]

0:22 is awesome I could watch that on a loop :)

[@lordinvishil]

His voice sounds like Joe from Family Guy, plus the cutaway gags are similar. This is just awesome
