JEET KUNE DO LOP SAO (SAU) REFLEX DRILL WITH JKD SIFU MIKE GOLDBERG

Just finished training with Guro Edwin Rodriquez of The Texas Defense Academy located in Benbrook in my home in Keller, Texas. Edwin's lesson was on a Lop Sao (Sau) or Grabbing Hand Reflex Drill which incorporates the Bong Sao (Sau) or "Springing Hand", the Gua Chui "Back-Fist", as well as, the Wu Sao (Sau) or "Guarding Hand' in Wing Chun Kung-Fu that I learned from my instructor, Sifu Tim Tackett. Trapping occurs when there is STOPPAGE like a BLOCK.
During this drill the partner doing the Lop Sao (Sau) yanks his partner's wrist toward his body with a downward and twisting motion of the hip. The Lop Sao (Sau) can be done on the outside, as well as, on the inside of your partner's arm. Just be sure to keep your rear hand up to protect your face and always spring forward with you Bong Sao (Sau) when you feel the yank. As time gones on, partners can execute straight punches, kicks, knees, as well as, breaks to the arm when it's being pulled. You can also incorporate Lan Sao (Sau) the "Arm Bar" or Gum Sao (Sau) the "Pressing Hand". Please be sure to wear a mouth-piece, a cup, and use some type of protective gloves that allows you to grab when practicing this drill.
(I prefer the clothe gloves)
