I have been following the dojo show

[@ArcticGator]

Something tells me that a lot of the fist techniques were made more effective by that metal plate that was affixed to the kote as hand protection, i have seen some that protrudes slightly past the front of the knuckles or side of the hand by about 1/3rd to 1/4th of an inch.

[@kotohinemura]

Very true, especially since alot of the internal bones, veins etc were not as well protected, or covered by armour on the inside

[@righteousshadowsdojopt.3979]

Are the ones in white gi guest?
Why the white gi?

[@marcyclark1298]

Awsome video....thanks. Derek A Banzul

[@AngloSaxon1]

Concentrating on technique is not the way to teach self defence, you should concentrate on training the mind to cope with violence and extreme violence. to cope with the adrenaline dump and how it both affects the mind and the body, once that has been done then move on to physical technique. Simply because the fight is won or lost in your head.

[@thedojomartialarts]

Yes. We agree. We practice that side of it, often. Thank you!
