I support your proposal, but Teddy Atlas is a well-known wannabe. Good old school coaches are Kenny Weldon and Tom Yankello. Also, I like coach Anthony and Jason Van Veldhuysen.
Master Charles, i am a French old amateur boxer and I have been waiting for an explanation about polyrhythms in Cuban boxing for a long time. Thank you very much for your clarity, for your generosity in sharing your knowledge and for your videos always in different beautiful places in London…. I watched all your videos and I learnt a lot. So many fascinating boxers in this country not allowed to become pro since 1962 but who are every time on the Olympics podium….
Very insightful Vincent - I think much of the development of Cuban Boxing is due to the preservation of the school system. And yes with the history this is why I believe pro boxingas a sport as it is now falls short because of 2 reasons 1) +6'5" athletes usually tend to enter NBA and thus the heavyweight division is empty and 2) Cuban Boxers do not have a strong presence in the Pro ranks! Pro boxing I believe would be much different if those two things were to change.
@@Charlessalbox thank you for your very interesting answer. I totally agree. I must say I have much more pleasure to watch amateur boxing especially when Cuban with their incredible footwork are involved, than a pro fight. I think I need to learn salsa…my wife will be happy!
A pure masterpiece. I'm an old amateur boxer n footwork is always the thing I'm paying the more attention and also the thing that let me to survive during fights n sparring. Congratulations for the amazing display.
Yes precisely... many young fighters tend to neglect this and if more of them realise how important footwork is they will also soon realise how streamline their boxing could be.
Genius. You are an absolute boxing genius. I love this take on shadow boxing. I will be certain to apply these concepts to my style and training. Much thanks again, Charles.
This is incredible! As an older person who played bball and soccer all my life, I started to lose a lot of quickness, mobility, and began feeling really stiff as I got older. I recently started boxing to continue to do something competitive and improve my flexibility. My favorite part of training has got to be the footwork and "dancing" part of it. I feel so rigid shadowboxing and doing my footwork drills. Thank you teaching me something new and interesting, and for giving me something to work on to improve my fluidity.
This is cool- for the Americans you are basically talking about moving in whole notes(1,2,3,4) halves (1,2) and quarters (1)- think a follow up would be great showing some drills where you use it with punches. This was a really nice intro.
Good confirmation! Will be sharing some of my beat boxing drills, soon. Mine is mostly done to cutting edge underground electronic music. But, yeah! There we have rhythm training. And then harness the spirit of the music! Thanks!
Brilliant video great information to share,love watching your videos and learning.Cubans boxing fascinates me,but my Footworks is probably the opposite to a Cubans right now😂
Coach I am learning a lot from your videos and I am sharing and spreading your knowledge .....thankyou very much coach I always wondered about the Cuban style and thought what made it so great ....because of you i understood it is this dance......but I have a wish if you can do video on Andy cruz Gomez style and if you can teach
Thing is I'm actually pretty decent at salsa. Well decent enough that females will sometimes ask me to dance when I go out lol. But whenever I've trained in boxing I've always been told I was stiff. Even had someone ask me how I could be so fluent on the dance floor and stiff in the ring. And I would always say well no one is hitting me on the dance floor unless it's a woman who likes to swing those elbows when she moves lol. Anyway my point is I never really knew how to bridge the footwork from salsa to the boxing ring. Thank you so much for making this. I can't wait to get going with it. Feel like a kid with a new toy :)
My friend I believe you are definitely in a good place to fuse these two branches to produce a complete picture that enhances your experience within the ring. Let me know how things develop and I will try to upload more content to assist
Love this. I'm 🇵🇷 Puerto Rican, so salsa is in my blood and I've always loved all martial arts including Boxing, but other than playing salsa in the background, I never considered how it could directly be applied to the Boxing training. Yet it makes so much sense. You showed how you executed the Cuban style to the Boxing stance. Would you please do another video show the same for Puerto Rican style and Cali style? Thank you and keep it up ! 👍
Once again thanks, from me and my lovely wife. My wife had being trying for years to get me involved in salsas dancing. I have recently being accused of breaking my ankle on purpose, apparently ill do anything to avoid salsas lessons Lol looks like Karma is working its charm again Top of the morning to you
Loving Salsa and Boxing I am intrigued but at the moment can only box to 4-4 timing. Is there a part 2 & 3 to this? I can't imagine how to incorporate the salsa timing into shadow boxing with footwork, punches and head movement etc... MT.
Yes. Well the first thing is to set a rhythm count to set a pace to your work when sparring or fighting. This will also give your opponent a false assessment of what level you are working at. Then when he falls for the deception you can break into a different rhythm and punish him for getting into the ring with you.
martial arts warriors with disabled eyesight are splendid fighters because they use vibrations of sounds to defend and go on offense and it’s thanks to persistent shadow martial arts And shadow martial arts from shadow boxing to etc. martial arts was designed to help you develop martial art senses like a warrior with disabled eyesight but can feel and see the opponent without seeing them with eyesight If you can’t hit someone with physically able eyesight at your usage to help you then how can you hit someone you can’t physically see especially at night Shadow martial arts is key to developing fighting senses like a blind eyesight warrior especially doing shadow martial arts at night Shadow martial arts helps your senses be like a warrior with disabled eyesight it’s underrated
@@Charlessalbox Its something I never expected to do which is dancing but I will for the sake of learning 😂 and you're so supportive brother you're bless for people who want to learn. I am grateful and if you visit United arab emirates don't forget to tell me I may come for a visit :)
Yes correct... the example of individual rhythms I gave, I incorrectly listed as Polyrhythms. Instead what I should have done is introduced them as rhythms and then showed that the breaking off from one mode of rhythm to certain rhythms is an example of polyrhythms in shadowboxing.
Brotha you need to make a training DVD set similar to teddy atlas! Because this is some golden knowledge right here
I hear you bro... thanks for the encouragement 🙏🏽

More Steps!! :D
Loving Salsa and Boxing I am intrigued but at the moment can only box to 4-4 timing.
Is there a part 2 & 3 to this?
I can't imagine how to incorporate the salsa timing into shadow boxing with footwork, punches and head movement etc...
MT.
Yes I will elaborate on the technique soon
Coach Charles do u change the count in salsa and boxing to not get timed then get caught? The change in counts does help alot. Great class coach.
Yes. Well the first thing is to set a rhythm count to set a pace to your work when sparring or fighting. This will also give your opponent a false assessment of what level you are working at. Then when he falls for the deception you can break into a different rhythm and punish him for getting into the ring with you.
@@Charlessalbox I see ur rite. Still working on my foot work. Thank you so much. Have a great day.
excuse me,may I ask a question? why after seeing your video which let me memories Bruce Lee's theory?
Buen video, solo como sugerencia podrías hacer un canal en español, pero aún así buen video
Charles, where can I get one of these cuba boxing tank tops?
Please tell me what achievements this unconditionally good boxer has. interesting for the sake of erudition
🙌🏿
ICING ON THE CAKE!!!
martial arts warriors with disabled eyesight are splendid fighters because they use vibrations of sounds to defend and go on offense and it’s thanks to persistent shadow martial arts
And shadow martial arts from shadow boxing to etc. martial arts was designed to help you develop martial art senses like a warrior with disabled eyesight but can feel and see the opponent without seeing them with eyesight
If you can’t hit someone with physically able eyesight at your usage to help you then how can you hit someone you can’t physically see especially at night
Shadow martial arts is key to developing fighting senses like a blind eyesight warrior especially doing shadow martial arts at night
Shadow martial arts helps your senses be like a warrior with disabled eyesight it’s underrated
Very insightful... its almost as if our eyes betray us or moreso the reliance upon our eyes within fighting betrays us.
Yo man, where can I get this undershirt from¿🔥
🇨🇺💪🏾👍🏼🔥. Чарльз, сделай тренировку на тяжелом мешке

Давно думал ..если бы найти во время бо ритм...и под него..

What is behind that door 😂
Haha none of your business 🤣🤣
No entendí nada .. abrazo grande !!
So are you encourage us to dance bro or what? 😂
Its hard I never dance bro
💯 brother you will see a difference in your footwork and cardio
I will make more videos to help
@@Charlessalbox Its something I never expected to do which is dancing but I will for the sake of learning 😂
and you're so supportive brother you're bless for people who want to learn. I am grateful
and if you visit United arab emirates don't forget to tell me I may come for a visit :)
Coach, I respect the lesson, but those examples aren’t polyrhythms.
All love, -Former university percussionist turned boxer
Yes correct... the example of individual rhythms I gave, I incorrectly listed as Polyrhythms. Instead what I should have done is introduced them as rhythms and then showed that the breaking off from one mode of rhythm to certain rhythms is an example of polyrhythms in shadowboxing.
