Working on some basic clinch entries and takedowns with @kai_ozeki.
Closing the distance is one of the most under taught and under practiced things in #selfdefense, which is particularly odd since wide looping punches are one of the most common ways a fight starts (like the assault on the LAPD officer at the harbor precinct).
The techniques are from the #graciesurvivaltactics course at @gracieuniversityhq. I like that during the leg hook takedown they recommend removing the entangled leg and posting it to control the descent of the takedown. Less chance of injury from crashing to the ground and more chance of remaining on top if the fight was on concrete or asphalt. Mahalo for helping me stay safe Kai!
