BUNHAE JOURNEYS - Low Block Question

Let's learn the likely lessons linked to the use of LOW BLOCK.

Other than the occasional use in the studio against another martial artist, coupled with impeccable timing and anticipation. The likelihood of it being used against a kick is slim for the average person. This video is about possible, more applicable uses of the technique since it is found all throughout the traditional arts.

I'm not saying this is a definitive list, or whether or not one technique is better than the other, my goal is to spark discussion, and to encourage everyone to experiment and A different methods to find out what works for YOU. Everyone is different and we all have our individual strengths and weaknesses. The important thing is to get your butt on the mats and put in the work.

For the last number of years, I've been on a search to find the practical application of Traditional Martial Arts forms... My upbringing in Tang Soo Do, and the dissection of the core material (Bunkai/Bunhae) has been a springboard to understanding my current system of Pilsung Moo Do.

BUNHAE is Korean meaning to dissect, break apart and analyze. The more common term is Bunkai in Japanese.
The study of Bunhae is paramount to fully understanding and learning to apply the movements found in traditional martial arts.

This series will be a journey of discovery as we try to unlock practical application for the movements found in the Traditional Martial Arts for the purpose of self-protection.
