Today let’s
look at another way of responding to the front choke. The technique I show in
the video below could be do against a choke, a lapel grab or even against a
punch.
The palm
strike to the chin is a very effective strike. It forces the attackers head
back, breaks their balance and stuns them for a second or two. If done right this
type of strike can often be a fight ender.
After the block
/ chin strike you’re in perfect position for the head turn takedown. This is a very
simple and effective takedown. A couple of points to ensure that is works even
better for you:
- Don’t just grab the back of their head, strike it!
- Don’t just use your arms, use your whole body. Remember they may be hurt but your attacker will almost always be bigger and stronger then you are.
- Pivot your body as your turn their head. When you’re finished they should be laying on the ground where you were just standing.
Next week we
will look at a couple of possible throw options from this position.
