N ow for the big self-defense mistake… standing still when you practice techniques with a partner! That’s just not realistic!
Yes, when you first learn self-defense techniques, it’s natural to stand still. This approach gives you time to understand what an attack feels like and allows you to coordinate your body movements.
But that’s just the first step!
Remember this advice from Sifu Randy– slow to learn, fast to test! In other words, once you feel your understanding of a self-defense technique is solid, it’s time to start speeding up and adding more pressure.
The first step should be to turn your static attack into a moving attack. Whether it’s a push, punch, or grab, very few attackers are going to just stand there. They are gong to move!
Plus, consider that as an attacker rushes at you, a strong punch or palm heel to the face may not be enough to stop them. It’s more likely that they will keep moving forward and collide with you.
Remember Conor McGregor versus Jose Aldo? Conor knocked Jose out cold, but he still got hit! Jose threw a punch as he fell forward and connected. It just happens that Conor was smart enough to get out of the way of his falling opponent.
You be smart, too! Don’t just stand there when you practice. Ask your partner to rush into your space.
The next step will be to start adding resistance. How much pressure you add is up to you!

This is really simple metaphor for most martial arts. If you're fighting and squared up to the other guy you're on the railroad tracks. The thing that we try to hammer in to everyone is get the hell off the tracks
I m 50 yrs old. I worked as a Bouncer.after👵about 4 yrs mixed kung fury( la going.na) very ✅Kim do and ju jitso) styles..excuse the spelling my ever friendly correction not working so well with other languages. Jeetlwon Do. Add it Is. In old.don't want fight no more. Still young brats. I find best.not to argue.. Or hurt quickly I'm old I no longer want to be hurt
Oh man, I am just laughing so damn hard! What a great video! Have you watched, 'Lie To Me' yet? Body Language would be a huge skill to have to be able to 'read' the minds of the bad guys. Before there is a need for any confrontation. Or to know how far this bad guy is willing to go or when he will try to kill you, or even how. So damn funny, Sensai Ando, I am still wiping the tears!!
+Ando Mierzwa I wanted to ask you: is aikido bad? A lot of people are telling me this and i think i should change martial art… And they may be right because aikido is really difficult. Both to learn and to do…
Great video sensei, i've also noticed some self defense systems teach people to throw knees when they get in the clinch nonstop like a machine gun when in reality as soon as you get in a clinch people either push you forward or try to wrestle you to the ground, doing this can lead to you ending on your butt.
Great tip Ando , My master always tell me this: use the the attacker movement against him, and it's no way to do that when you are in the line fire, like the gun shut get out of the line fire and do what you have to do. h_h

Don't both of you practice BJJ? Would love to see you two roll vs each other.

it is not only getting out of the way, it is staying to get out of the way. violence is never an answer, but olso never a question.
The problem is, the people training them !!

Having a laugh and learning things that I wish former teachers would have gone more into detail about.

Great content, one thing that keeps going around in circles in my head while watching this: how did Sifu lose his pinkie?
