Focus Mitt / Thai Pad Combos Basis around these combos These combinations are designed as a foundation to advanced striking. As noted below in the Focus Mitt combos these are specified for a right handed fighter, left handed strikers should look to page 2 which is the same combos suited to the left handed fighter. These combos are the essentially a training aid and teaching tool to provide a clear fast “Language” from pad holder to striker. From this foundation pad holder can add slipping punches, bobbing and weaving, as well as footwork and even sprawling to add more difficulty into these combinations.

Lamka Shaolin Disciple’s Union www.kungfudisciples.com Lamka Shaolin Disciples’ Union SPECIALIZED MARTIAL ARTS COURSE INFO http://www.kungfudisciples.com Introducing Authentic Specialized Martial Arts Training in India 1 Lamka Shaolin Disciple’s Union www.kungfudisciples.com BAGUA ZHANG: [12 Classes a Month] Introduction: Bagua Zhang 八卦掌 Bagua Zhang is a martial art that has existed in various forms for millennia, practiced secretly by Taoist hermits before it emerged from obscurity in the late 19th century C.E. The most famous modern proponent, Dong Hai Chuan, became the bodyguard of the Empress Dowager, and was a teacher well respected by China’s most famous masters. 1. It is characterized by fast circular footwork, agile body movements, and lightning-fast hands. It is one of the famous three Neijia (Internal) styles which also include Tai Chi Quan and Xingyi Quan. 2. It teaches the student to “Walk like a dragon, retrieve and spin like an ape, change momentum like an eagle, and be calm and steady like a waiting tiger.” The use of open palms instead of fists, and the use of “negative space” is one of the things that makes Bagua Zhang particularly good for defeating multiple opponents. 3. Bagua Zhang contains powerful strikes. But the emphasis on flow and constant change is what gives this art its versatility. The options to choose between strikes, throws, joint locks, pressure point control, and varying degrees of control, make this art useful for self-defense and for law enforcement. 4. Bagua Zhang training is very aerobic, and emphasizes stability and agility.

Betty met Roth at a dance and asked him during the course of conversation what he did for a living. The exchanges went something like this: Al (swelling out his chest and trying to look nonchalant "I'm a professional boxer." Betty (surprised): What a coincidence! My boy friend is a fighter—his name is Harry Mizler." Al: "Oh, that guy. I may be meeting him in the ring soon which will be tough luck for him. I’ll slaughter him." TIPPED FOR TITLE That story may carry more than one moral, but it may also have spurred Mizler to be at the peak or his form and outpoint the American by an overwhelming margin over ten rounds. Certainly Harry looked brilliant and besides being awarded a "Boxing News" Certificate of Merit was very strongly tipped to regain the British lightweight title. For the contest, made at ten stone. John Harding paid Mizler £250 and Roth £150. And to this day looks back at the promotion and considers it the best bargain he over made.

Full Contact Sparring 2 Minutes (2 Rounds) Full-Contact Training No-No’s In recent years, mixed-martial arts competitions and cross-training have become popular. Two good things have resulted from this trend. It has served as a wake- up call for all martial artists regarding what works in a fight and what doesn¹t, and it has taught students the importance of being physically fit. Many instructors have jumped on the full-contact cross-training bandwagon and are having success teaching their students how to mix different fighting arts. However, wearing a black belt for more than four decades has made me cautious about which drills best teach students how to combine arts. Only if an instructor chooses his drills wisely does cross-training offer many advantages. The most popular form of cross-training involves mixing kickboxing drills with classical karate. The following are five things to avoid while you engage in the training trend of the decade.
