Another Lee Morrison [Urban Combatives] offering for RBSD/self-defense enthusiasts.
Combative Concepts: The Flanking Principle is the title of this one.
Specification “The notion of assaulting on the enemy’s flank has been used in battle from the beginning of time.
Massive armies assault in formation from the flanks, while major artillery engages in frontal combat.
A pair of muggers on the street will frequently use the pincer method, in which one subject distracts the unwary victim from the front while the other sucks the unsuspecting target from the flank.
The fencing technique of “In-Quartata” utilizes flanking from an offensively-defensive standpoint, in which one fighter moves out of line from an approaching assault while simultaneously striking on the flank.
This DVD focuses on developing this Combative Principle for usage in a close range hand-to-hand conflict.
Here, we break down the entire premise and reassemble it into an immediately useable Combative skill-set.
We practice everything from footwork and hand posture to clearing an obstruction, dealing with an active guard or fence, and striking from a flanked position, using everything from ballistic impact to subject control and takedowns.
We also look at flanking to “zero pressure” (a phrase borrowed from Filipino martial arts) from one of the most difficult knife strikes, the “grip and stab.”
Finally, we examine the use of flanking as we attack in order to maximize IMPACT while being non-telegraphic.
Consider the following two film examples to visualize this theory in action.
First, in the film “Snatch,” the pikey boxer flanks the incoming meathead, slamming him senseless with a perfect straight right on the button of the chin.
Or, in the film “Troy,” Achilles charges towards his giant opponent, evading his spears, then closes with a flanking leap as he slams his shortsword deep down into his opponent’s subclavicle for a single killing blow.
Films are terrific for inspiring the imagination, and both instances, while choreographed, are superb portrayals of this combat-proven approach.”
Enjoy!
