Great job Annica and Steve! This took alot of hard work and dedication. You both should be proud. Anyone who wants to downplay your skills should try doing it themselves! 🙌👏
I can be helpful to you. I don’t know what you mean by “combat readiness.” It is not the standard meaning as that applies to larger groups of military people, equipment and systems. If you mean “readiness for personal combat” I note that police forces and militaries around the world train their personnel in various martial arts including Hapkido and its cousins with which it shares a large number of techniques: Krav Maga, Muay Thai, Jiu Jitsu, Aikido, Judo, Sambo and others. Other than Krav Maga and Muay Thai, these are considered soft and circular martial arts (in contrast with boxing, Taekwondo, and Karate which are classified as hard and straight martial arts). Soft martial arts involve redirecting an attacker’s energy to use it against him, takedowns, throws, ground fighting, submission holds, disarming attackers, strikes (with hands, feet, knees, elbows, and head), joint locks, and the activation of pressure points. They can be applied to counter most any type of attack. Boxing is highly rule-based (there are no rules in real combat), structured, demanding of significant physicality, and thus inherently too limited to be considered generally as effective as those martial arts. Legs are longer and more powerful than arms (boxing doesn't use them to strike in combat) and personal combat often starts with a blind attack perhaps with a weapon involved and ends up with ground fighting for which boxing techniques don’t apply. (Punches thrown from the knees or back is not boxing, but such techniques are included in training in these other martial arts.) Note that boxers in UFC also have training in other martial arts due to the limitations of boxing in personal combat. Boxing tends to be ineffective against significantly larger or stronger opponents, whereas a martial art that uses the attacker’s size and weight against themselves can be very effective even against a much larger opponent. A martial artist seeks to learn from other martial arts and artists. I suggest you watch the video again with a desire to see what you can learn from it.
@@dealerslicenseops Logical fallacy of appeal to authority. Do you believe climate scientists when they say "global warming/climate change" is manmade, Fauci when he told people to get the jabs, the corporate media when they said until very recently that Joe Biden was "sharp as a tack"? This smacks of, you don't know what you're writing about so I should go find someone else to talk to that you hope I won't do or that will agree with you. The head instructor of a Mixed Martial Arts school is instructing in mixed martial arts. That is, he is applying techniques from a variety of martial arts, not only boxing which, as I noted, is very limited in circumstances outside the ring. He would almost certainly agree with everything I wrote because it's factual. And what does being a 35 year vet have to do with anything? Vet of what? Life? MMA? Being a troll? Military? If the latter, it's unlikely you would have posted what you did originally.

This has nothing to do with combat readiness. These kids would be better off going to a boxing gym.

@@curtisfrantz4259 go into an MMA gym and tell the head instructor what you just told me. 35 year vet here.

You have a very warped view of reality. Martial ARTS has many, many times more benefit than just learning grounding and pounding someone.
Seems like a MCDojo with the Weird music.
Gradings are suppose to be taken seriously.
This is hilarious 😂
Svaka cast.
