Big thanks to Davy from Colorado for asking! Do you kick with the heel or the flat of the foot when kicking below the waist? And, is there an all in one kick? ie a kick suitable in all circumstances? Sifu Rick Spain answers you here.
You need very little space with this one and minimum equipment: something sturdy to step up on to, a weight plate or prop of similar size, a kettle bell or dumbbell and a skipping rope.
If you’re new to training start with the 20 minute option and work up to 40 mins.
If someone’s got their hands around your throat with serious intent your defence needs to be infallible. This means good physics, broad strokes and easy to remember techniques that work under pressure from multiple positions and opponents of different size and strength.
This is Rick Spain’s pet peeves on neck attack defence techniques.
Enjoy.
This week it’s all neck attacks! Attacking the neck is a very important skill to understand and integrate into your standup game, your clinch game and your grappling game.
This week Sifu Rick Spain Calls Bullshit on martial arts instructors who don’t go to the ground because “we’re a stand up system” or “we can’t be taken down” and who don’t spar because their system is too deadly or interestingly… sparring isn’t realistic. Well unless you’re an idiot going out picking street fights, it’s the closest most people are going to get!
Enjoy.

To encourage those who have been sitting on the fence, gradings are 1/2 price until the end of the year!
Send through a grading request via the Grading Portal. No payment required at that stage. Include a link to video footage (keep it under 5 mins) giving us an overview/highlights of you training – showing what you’re confident with and what you’re struggling with. This will give us vital information in assisting you to prepare for your next level.

The grading portal is not just there to submit your grading material but also for you to ask questions so we can help you prepare for your next level, so get in touch when you’re feeling like you might be ready to move forward and we’ll be here to help.
The four phases of engagement. Add this to your martial arts online training this week! You must address all 4 phases in your overall training in order to have a complete fighting game.
In case you missed it on YouTube, Sifu’s mat chat to all on the importance of “mat culture” in martial arts. Strong healthy values breeds a healthy training environment. If you’re training with friends in your garage or in a full-time school be mindful of the culture you’re creating or embracing.
