Starting with conventional boxing punches, we progressively build contact, trust, and composure. As a smaller guy, I really appreciated how my partner used his shoulders and positioning to keep me under pressure. 🥊🔥 #MartialArts #Boxing #SelfDefense #jkd #Karate

Bjj or any grappling art needs to consider street self-defence where you transcend sport rules It’s all about survival I attended an amazing combative ground seminar at @CombativeConceptsJKD #martialarts #bjj #grappling #selfdefence #jkd

This progressive fighting drill builds essential defensive attributes—from line familiarization and footwork to range adaptation and head movement. Using boxing as the primary delivery system, one partner attacks while the defender starts with hands behind their back before progressing to active hand defenses. 🙏 Special Thanks to Caden Borsboom for assisting me in filming. #Boxing #MartialArts #Crosstraining #Jeetkunedo #selfdefence _____________________________ ⏰ TIMESTAMP CHAPTERS 0:00 0:40 Progressive Contact Drill Jabs and Crosses Intro 3:41 Round 1 Jabs and Crosses 5:00 Round 1 Debrief 6:37 Progressive Contact Drill All punches 9:13 Round 2 All Punches 12:11 Round 2 Debrief 14:19 Conclusion 15:23 Outro ---------------------------------------------------- 🌐MY L I N K S FACEBOOK: https://www.facebook.com/karateunitycanada INSTAGRAM: https://www.instagram.com/karateunity/ YOUTUBE: https://www.youtube.com/karateunity WEBSITE: https://www.karateunity.ca/ 🌐Follow Coach Steve Ferreira https://www.combativeconceptsama.ca/ ---------------------------------------------------------- 🥋WANT TO TRAIN WITH ME? ✴️ To book seminars, private or small group training email me at karateunity@gmail.com ---------------------------------------------

I tested out Hapkido wrist locks, balance breaks, and kicks to see how they hold up under pressure... and my wrists paid the price! #Hapkido #MartialArts #WristLock #SelfDefense #Combatives

Gichin Funakoshi taught that the ultimate aim of martial arts isn’t victory, but the perfection of character. Learning to fight is just the tool—learning self-regulation and becoming a better human being is the true goal. #MartialArts, #Karate, #Motivation, #MartialArtsPhilosophy, #GichinFunakoshi

Why does kata divide karate? 🥋 Maybe we’re looking at it the wrong way. Kata can be a repository of foundational biomechanics—but cross-training gives those movements context, functionality, and meaning. Boxing. Grappling. Silat. And ultimately, finding what unites karate instead of what divides it. #Karate #Kata #KarateTraining #MartialArts #CrossTraining

Kata isn’t just about memorizing movements—it’s about understanding what those movements can actually do. My kata applications have been shaped by years of cross-training and influences from Defence Lab, Crazy Monkey Defence, Silat, Kempo, FMA, JKD, and Japanese Jujutsu. Different systems. Different perspectives. One goal: making kata functional. 🥋 #Karate #Kata #Bunkai #MartialArts #JKD
