Combatives sparring | Self defense training and techniques
In this video I break down some MMA / combatives sparring I did recently. We look at some takedowns, some of which are more effective for self defense than others. We also look at some cool grappling moves we can use to get the upper hand on the ground and discuss why wrestling/BJJ are excellent skillsets for self defence.

You’re watching reality check self-defence, the following is a little bit about this channel, but more importantly, it will help me get more views because of keywords and stuff. I have spent a large portion of my life training in martial arts that claimed to prepare me for real-life encounters, that claimed to be able to teach me how to properly defend myself, they were wrong. It wasn’t until I encountered real-world situations that I realised the vast majority of what is marketed as “self-defence” is nothing more than a scam, or the teachings of someone who has no idea what they are talking about, but believes they do because they have spent the last 15 years perfecting their katas. So, my goal is to test the teachings of instructors that use the internet as their platform by using their techniques against live, resisting opponents.

If this is self defense sparring, why do you keep trying to hit around his head in the turtle position? Wouldn’t hitting the back of the head and neck be way more efective? Since this was light sparring and you weren’t throwing hard hitters I don’t see why not
this is a nice video…in my combatives classes we sometimes do these things with like both guys having a training knife or one guy surviving a bunch of guys with different weapons its great
Hey! This was informative! I've been trying to look for a video like yours that really teaches the ideas in this vid. 🥼 👏Your breakdown reminds me of the channel from Dr. Ethan. Dr Ethan's demonstrations are actually helpful and he actually helped me on my studies! He is a helpful med student in Europe.
I suggest you check out his YT out and give Dr Ethan a subscribe! 👉 #DrEthanEducation
This was filmed at Western Combatives in Penrith, NSW.
I like this sparring video. I'd love to see grappling with a rubber knife. One guy trying to stab, the other trying to submit.
