"Defenses against a front grab: trap the hands, apply leverage, and counter with a takedown or throw."

Let’s go step by step through both sequences in your picture, like a martial arts manual would explain:

First Sequence (100 → 101)

Defense against a front grab / choke

100 – Grip Control

-Attacker grabs the defender’s lapel or throat.

-Defender immediately secures the attacker’s wrist/hand with both hands to prevent choking pressure.

101 – Lock & Takedown

-Defender rotates the attacker’s wrist and arm downward, applying a joint lock (wrist/elbow control).

-By stepping to the side and applying downward pressure, the defender forces the attacker to the ground.

-Defender finishes in a dominant kneeling position, holding the attacker’s arm locked, preventing escape.

Second Sequence (102 → 103)

-Defense against a one-handed lapel grab

102 – Breaking the Balance

-Attacker grabs the defender’s chest/lapel.

-Defender controls the attacker’s grabbing arm with one hand, while stepping in close.

-This disrupts the attacker’s balance.

103 – Shoulder Throw (Seoi-nage)

-Defender turns their body, pulling the attacker’s arm over their shoulder.

-With hip rotation and leverage, the defender executes a shoulder throw, flipping the attacker onto the ground.

-Attacker lands in front of the defender, who remains in control.

From the discipline of Japan’s Judo 🥋 to the striking power of Laos’ Muay Lao 🥊 — two unique martial arts that showcase skill, culture, and fighting spirit! 💪🔥

-(Japan – Judo):
-Judo is a modern martial art from Japan that focuses on throws, grappling, and submissions. Instead of striking, practitioners use leverage and technique to throw or pin their opponent. It was created in the late 1800s and is now an Olympic sport known for discipline, respect, and efficiency of movement.

-(Laos – Muay Lao):
-Muay Lao is the traditional martial art of Laos, similar to Muay Thai from Thailand. It uses punches, kicks, elbows, and knee strikes, making it a powerful striking art. Muay Lao emphasizes toughness, rhythm, and the use of the whole body as a weapon.

"💥 Side Kick – High Torso Drill 💥
Build balance, flexibility, and kicking power with this simple chair drill. Step by step, sharpen your technique and aim higher every time! 🥋👊

Here’s a clean step-by-step to train the Side Kick – High Torso Drill (chair drill):

1-Set up

-Place a sturdy chair beside/just in front of you at about hip–rib height.

-Fighting stance, guard up. Warm up hips first.

2-Step 1 – Chamber

-Pivot your base foot slightly outward (30–45°).

-Lift your knee across your body so it’s higher than the chair.

-Pull toes back (foot blade), lead with the heel, torso tall, core tight.

3-Step 2 – Extend

-Drive the heel straight out sideways, skimming over the chair line.

-Hips stacked, glute engaged, base knee soft (not locked).

-Exhale on extension; heel–hip–shoulder stay in one line.

4-Step 3 – Touch & Hold

-Lightly touch or rest your heel on the chair top to check height/alignment.

-Hold 3–5 seconds (or 15–30s for a stretch), then re-chamber back and set down with control.

5-Sets & Reps

-3 sets × 8–12 slow reps each leg.

-Add 2–3 longer holds per side (15–30s). Raise the chair height only when you can keep perfect form.

-Coaching cues: Heel first • Toes pulled back • Knee returns to chamber before lowering • Torso upright • Drive from hip/glute.

-Common mistakes: Pointing toes, flicking from the knee, dropping the chamber, leaning, locking the base knee, turning it into a roundhouse.
