Thank you for sharing your knowledge. I bought your original JKD series on VHS back in the day. The solid techniques you taught in that series helped me to get through a 33 year career in law enforcement (20 years on the street) unscathed. Your tape on attributes was a game changer for me also. Thanks again for all you have done for martial arts over the years.
Mr Vunak, I absolutely love you man. You are the closest thing JKD will ever get to having another Bruce Lee. You may have an equal but none better. Thanks for every video, every technique, every fight philosophy and everything you have given to the marital arts. You are genuinely one of the very few that has given more back than has ever gotten.
It’s valid advice. The first weapon you have is your feet - for running! If you can run, you’re not going to do some silly movie/dojo practice stuff. The best you can do is train to make your reactions without thinking, to keep you calm in danger and stress, and to give you the stamina to outlast the other guy.
@teamvunak what's up VU... trained in Bakersfield with you many years ago as well as a few seminars. I mostly trained under Tom as well as Riff in Illinois. George King is a long time high school buddy of mine and originally got me into training with PFS. Good to see you still rocking.
thanks for the practical advice! if they are using a stick or long blade, is a higher probability defang sliding down their weapon after contact, rather than attempted direct strike to the hand?
Let's say you attempted to defang the snake, but I block with my weapon, then you angle your body and weapon to slide down as you say to defang the snake, answer to your question yes. However, if you don't angle your body and weapon, it will be a 50/50, that's not good enough odds.
You wouldn't have liked me then, but I got myself together. Nevertheless, I know a lot about knife fighting. Thank you for watching and taking the time to comments.
