Hardwork Class - 16/07/2010: Distance Entries into Engagement

 Due to the roads being flooded from torrential rains this week, the guys missed more than half the session, so we didn't quite get to do all the work we wanted to.  Still, it was a good transition into RMA methodology from the Wing Chun. 


Objectives

- Engaging and clearing the bridge from a distance

- Testing of structural strength in force-on-force lockups



Warmup

- Neck pummelling

- Strike absorption – passing the wave - fists

Engagement Drills - Striking


- Clashing Bridge – force-on-force impact; emphasise maintaining structure and attempting to disrupt opponent’s structure

- Asymmetrical Slipping Bridge – from force-on-force impact, tori aims to clear the bridge and land a push as a test of structural integrity; allow impact to creep up to strikes as situation allows

- Asymmetrical Slipping Bridge to Counter – as above, but uke aims to absorb or otherwise defend initial strike and channel energy into counterstrike

- Asymmetrical Slipping Bridge to Recounter – as above, with tori aiming to re-counter


Engagement Drills – Grappling

- Asymmetrical Slipping Bridge to clinch – as above, but with clinches
