Very cool congratulations. As I was watching the knife portion. It really reminded me of the British Gurkha I use to watch training with their khukuri knives.

Break down the Jon Jones spin back kick .

Nice video brother! 👍🏻

Good form with respect to the philosophy of technique. It's important to learn forms for discipline... But in a real suddenly surprised sidewalk pushing situation against your person (and believe me when I say I got pushed many times when I least expected it coming and so it arrives as a surprise) chances are you are going to miss the opportunity to counter - unless you are on guard every moment of the day. So, if it was missed it's best to step in and quickly execute a backhand strike across the side of the temple or to the eye. He is done. Also, to avoid further conflict a soild fullhouse smack to the face with a Karate yell will overwhelm your opponent. This will usually seal the deal. It will greatly intimidate him. He will be stunned and you can walk away. Or just push back with more force. I've done it. The opponent was stunned and he walked away. If there are two opponents (and I had them) that takes quick action to subdue the other. But again, fast action on the first with an over powering smack and yell could very well get the second schmuck to back off. Any man being fiercely smacked in the face by another man is so demoralizing that it heavily out weighs being punched in the face - and you most likely won't have to worry about legal consequences later on. I studied under 9th degree Master Thomas Kelly who was Ed Parker's right-hand man for years. You were taught how to get out of a situation with quick action than escape. I subscribed and gave you a thumbs up.

Best of luck with this wonderful endeavor, John!

wow finally some truth with easy to understand interpretation, keep up the great content 💯

Love your vedlo your outstanding teacher.subcribed love kepo

Thank you for the great video. Which knuckles do you recommend striking with?

Jon, thank you for posting this. You did a fantastic job.

This is the best kenpo realistic approach hands down

So many different versions of Thunder Hammers but this makes sense

Superb explanation...

Very good 👍

Like sir

What is Bando I just heard of it about a minute ago or a little longer

What is Bando I just heard of it less than a minute ago

if anyone grabs your leg like that for a single leg , you're not dealing with someone who knows what they're doing

This guy is a very good instructor and a realist... 💯👏🏾

The best ideas are always the simplest!

I think you mis-titled this video.

Another great video - love these variations.

I must be doing things a lot like you-- because I was a bodyguard/anti- terrorist specialst with the govt.- and my kenpo (I'm a 5th dan) has ALWAYS been very effective- even though I was constantly seeing folks tell me it isn't. (but I have a 4th Hapkido, 4th tenshin aikido, black sash in wing chun, and teach jeet kune do too)... ALL my arts are VERY effective.. which just goes to prove YOUR STATEMENT- it's HOW you do it!!! I use to say- It's NOT the art- it's the ARTIST!!-- and you and I have proven that. (over 1000 encounters on record during my duty and only 2 losses).

🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾 Uussshhh

Love this breakdown - excellent video sir.

Excelente video Master!! Gracias por compartir 👍🏼

This is great - definite differences from the way I initially learned the technique and love everything in your breakdown - most specifically the pin at the end and it not being an arm lock. I think yours is much more effective. 👍

Excellent demo! I really like the idea of dropping my knee on the ankle from behind like that. Going to work it into some of my existing drills. Thank you, Sensei.

skill level?

target didn't t stand a chance

gay🥳

😭🏳️‍🌈

What is category 6?

This is dumb technique dawg, have you ever been in a knife fight man? You don’t act all karate kid, you hack and poke with all your strength so that they die, not get a flesh wound. Stick to Karate man you look like a dork with the knife.

I totally agree with you liked your video. Doing martial arts and working hard towards a black belt. Makes you a happier person. Doing martial arts makes you work harder and smarter and other things in life also.

Lo tenía todo de un luchador , .....cuando vino Okinawa.....se los comía, a todos..

Fuel el más técnico y Guapo y tuvo suerte .

Thank you for this. True legend. Saw him fight Bill Wallace back in the day.

Superb video and explaination. Thank You so much. 🥊🥋 Best wishes from Hamburg, Germany.

I can demo if requested

I thought lone kimono used the step n pivot 4 hip power (not just horse from ft 2gether ) 2 get force from a stable position applied from legs hips n weight n apply force 2 weak points n limbs

It's nice to see Mr. Nackord thriving. I remember doing these drills when I was a purple belt in the King of Prussia Plaza school in the late eighties. Invaluable lessons. Thanks Dennis!

👍🏽🔥🔥🔥

I love it, everything you said it was very inspiring message.

no power

I give a thumbs up for your class wearing shoes. I never liked the barefoot thing on those hard floors.

Thank you coach. How do you protect your face with your hands down?

"Those who look at the sky from the bottom of a well only see part of the sky"

But you are practicing that against a guy who has his hand just hanging my his waist. That is common in all these kenpo videos. The opponent throws 1 punch and the other guy throws umpteen trillion attacks without the guys responding at all. Jeez. Have the guys put his hands up. 🙄

Thank you !
