  • When it comes to self-defense, flashy moves may look cool, but they often don't work in high-stress situations. Your fine motor skills can go out the window, leaving you with only the simple reactions you've trained for. Brad Dotten, a Loss Prevention & Security instructor with over 20 years of real-world experience, knows how to teach people to handle threats in high-stress situations. In this video, he demonstrates what he teaches people with little to no martial arts experience on how to defend against someone trying to punch you. It's all about building simple reactions through training and relying on them when you need them the most. So, forget about the flashy moves and focus on the basics to defend yourself effectively.

      @@leoangelomarquez exactly. fake fancy martial arts wont work no matter how hard you "make it work". research lots to see those moves if they actually work in full on fights, then practice AND spar as hard as you can while still being safe from serious injury. demostration alone is NOT proof that it would work. for example the left hook is proven effective because u see it used in MMA, boxing AND streetfights by random untrained ppl.

      You're asking me?¿ or you commenting on the video? If not, hmm?, let's see. since the age of 8. I started training kukiwon TaeKwonDo. I got my black belt in tkd by the age of 13. Was throwing triple kicks and van Damm style split kicks like I was walking. Started Jeet kune do when I was 20 from sifu lamar m. Davis. Then, I began cross training in judo Gracie jiu-jitsu and Sambo as well. Obviously, I did kickboxing, and I got the honor to spar the late great Joe Lewis 2 rounds once around that time. He hits like a hammer and it feels like you're hitting stone. In the Late 90s. BTW, he was the only person Bruce Lee actually respected in the MA World. By now, I'm a 3rd Dan in tkd and Instructor and school owner. Got a 2nd Dan black belt and instructor level in haganah. It's a more intense Krav-maga version with no bullshit added. Then, I trained some capoeira for shits and giggles. To stay limber. Then, I started kali pekiti- tersia. An original mother martial arts from the Philippines. Includes swords knives and empty hand combat. Which I've been an instructor/guru for over 10 years. And now, training in silat for my instructor level certification. That's 10 different real martial arts. I've been in more street fights than I care to legally remember. F-U!! Keyboard warrior mofuger! Comments. Looks like you are talking about yourself. Please tell me how much you know.

    The main issue is the mental strength. If someone is scared they wont be able to provoke their own fight response. The first lesson should be a mental lesson and then go on to the moves that can be applied with the correct state of mind.

      @@sj460162 mental strength comes from training. It comes with thousands of hours under fire sparring hard. It doesn’t come from kata. It doesn’t come from point sparring. It comes with learning about you sparring hundreds of different people over decades. Spar with big guys, learn defense and your capabilities to take a shot. Spar with little guys, work on dealing with speedy guys that don’t tire out. If you are trained in BJJ and wrestling you don’t need to worry about going to the ground no matter how big the guy is. You do however need to worry about the friends you didn’t realize he had nearby. But that’s why you train in Boxing and Muay Thai. Mental strength is not falling apart when you are hit. It’s being comfortable in any situation. I get it. You’ve probably spent years wasting your life training in karate. You don’t want to see the truth. Because the truth means you were duped. It’s nothing to be embarrassed about unless you know the truth and still persist in the lie. Do karate, kung fu, etc for the health benefits or because you love the art. Don’t do it for self defense. If you do, you better hope the guy you’re facing isn’t trained in MMA. I’d prefer to know what I’m capable of. But that’s me.

    Best thing I have to say for this instructor, is teach his techniques according to his style and way of teaching. If he's good,then spread the word of his system. Don't throw names around like John Wicks techniques are no good . Yes., I agree, it is flashy and fast. But i know for a fact that experienced practitioners, made it effective. Or even bashing his instructor or some instructors about how many techniques they learned. A great instructor continues involving and training. I have nothing but good to say about my instructors or those that's practice, so long that they have learned lots of techniques. I am a 71 year old man who has been studying since 12 years old in martial arts, boxing wrestling all types of techniques . Over my lifetime I adapted hapkido, judo, american boxing, Wing Chun boxing, wrestling and what ever the heck works. I will bite your ears off if that's what it takes. I teach every week. I study and practice every week, i probable have hundreds if not thousands of techniques in my head. And thank God that I do, it has never failed me that my movements and fighting ability seems programed in my mind of defense and offensive movements without thought. I've had students and other practitioners take me on blindfolded and i held my grounds, that was in my late sixties. im a retired Law enforcement officer, experienced body guard, among other things that placed me in harms way. I have been in many, maybe around a hundred physical confrontations. I am very physical and muscular man, even at 71. I dedicate myself to fitness and health as well. I surprised everybody when they see my performance and capabilities. When people say old people can't fight, it depends who the old person is. I have used and still use strong opponents and real fighting to my practices. The technique this instructor said is not practical, I have literally used it dozens of times in real situations along with a few others. I know and it's very well rounded as long as the punch is not a round punch. Yes i do practice against some of the most popular fighting. And i might use just a chosen few. I just pay attention of what's standing before me. And keep my eyes on my assailant movements, but if i was half blind, i would still have confidence in my ability. Along with faith in the Lord as well. If you teach your students right and how to keep their hands up and eyes observant and move according to the speed of fight. I have proven and i know even students who has proven it to be effective. I would also tell them, yes use your knees, your foot your elbows and make sure the entire body of your assailant is in the right hold so that his movements in punching or kicking is rendered. Practice the proper body mechanics in balance and holds when applying them. I can place a person in a hold and they'll be saying mother may i, before even thinking about making a encounter towards me. I also never speak about what not to use because of courts and law, as this instructor stayed. I teach my students about the law and being cautious not to over power the force that's necessary. But i will teach them a very aggressive technique. I know and most law enforcement officers know, that even if you use the less forceful techniques you're still going to deal with it in court. Be within the law and Gods law. But use what's necessary for you and others. That same technique is used when grabbing the throat, is actually a great technique if needed in that situation. It's no more aggressive than the other techniques that we teach in self-defense in martial art techniques. I know some top instructors that would bicker with not using wich he called John Wick, technique. I think if Bruce Lee was still alive he would put his thoughts in as well. Bruce favord these movements. When used properly, you are trapping the punching arm (follow through with that) and strike your opponent quickly and hard. Also if done right you will be able to avoid the opponents other are, I actually went up against a pro boxer, young and strong. This John Wick technique, i used on his speeding punches. Within only seconds I was able to deflect his punch strike him in the side of his head. Strike him with my elbow and locked on to his hand with a wrist lock and placed him in a hold. I almost struck him one more time, but i seen no use, he was injured. And by the way other bold statements made by video RUclipsrs claimed Hapkido was not effective against boxers. They should stick to teaching there stuff and not bash others arts of discipline. And we all know. They are plenty exceptional people that study hard and different than others. It doesn't matter what art of discipline they are. To get back to my story, I then rendered aid afterward injuring the man. Truthfully, at the beginning, I did not realize he was going to fight me, I guess all the techniques that I learned over lifetime just came out of nowhere. "You know, don't learn thousands." You guys out there in RUclips land. Stick to what you know works.Learn new things. Practice hard and really learn what its like in real confrontations. You have to find yourself and train physically. Don't knock other martial arts. I come from the old school. Which you probably wouldn't understand. We didnt glorify what we did we honored and humble ourselves and practice in reality. Respect your art, be humble. And John wick, the movie star Keanu Reeves. He's actually practicing and stidies harder than most RUclipsr instructors. I actually respect that man, he very well may be a better martial artist than you. Its great to teach on RUclips. Please do so. But don't knock others. You have know idea unless you are out there knocking heads around on the streets. I also found it distasteful, when one martial artist advertises his product, Don't use traditional martial arts it's no good. I'm willing to bet even the 71 year old man knows what he knows. And ill stick to what got me here. My traditional Martial arts training pluse 101
    Prays the Lord 'm still enjoying my Studies and teaching at 71 years of age. And one more thing keep your body strong, muscular and don't shy from pain. Fight iron with iron, and sharpen iron with iron.

    Obviously when the instructor is trying to teach a particular response it has to be shown in a slower controlled manner or you’ll keep repeating it until you run out of functional training partners. “training for the street “ or realistic training scenarios have their place but you have learn to walk before you can run. Even training with Red Man suits is a trade off because of visibility and mobility constraints. The best training is to learn a small repertoire of functional effective responses and preemptive techniques then practice them until you can’t get them wrong.

    If you want to be a great fighter, you must join a gym and fight every day, multiple opponents and different styles. Your body needs to be in top shape. You need to know what getting hit for real feels like, and you need a heart of a Lion. Even then, street fights can get you killed.

      Most people don't want to be Connor McGregor. They just want to be able to protect themself against the average A-hole, which doesn't require the same level of conditioning or type of training. And in reality about the time you reach that top-tier-fighter level, age starts to creep in and staying in top shape gets harder and harder... especially if you got a real job, wife and kids... some skills that don't require Olympic fitness are useful when you're a 50yo at a desk job.

    That's great if you actually see the punch coming. He's making it simple, but still operating on the same premise as the martial arts he dismisses; that you're going to be able to react in a timely manner to a sudden attack. It just doesn't happen. Maybe it will work for clueless drunks. I doubt anyone is going to pull this off against someone who's actually dangerous. Strike first. If you miss the opportunity then you're probably just trying to get out of the way and counter.

    Just my opinion. I would be very careful moving straight into punches, you may get the block right but if timing off, and a real punch is coming very fast, you will go to sleep. Also he is throwing a right hook, the left will not be far behind from the other direction. If you want to get close, make sure your ground game is up to it. I would build up the reflex/instinct to roll under that hook stepping with left foot , you will be on angle and have advantage for a second, can strike with the roll, say ridge hand under to throat and/or right kick to his rt knee.
    Possibilities are endless. Also fights in your mind last a few seconds but you best be in shape mentally and physically otherwise you will drain fast.
    Sparring close to full speed is not optional.

      Don't forget that each strike must be thrown in slow motion and most importantly, your training partner must hold their arm out like a frozen statue after each strike. Effectively, what we're describing here is a choreographed dance which is where it all comes tumbling down once the poop really hits the fan in a real street fight.
      There is a time and place for drills and compliant partners whilst training in martial arts but you also have to undergo pressure testing with non-compliant partners and know what it feels like to get hit really hard in face. Some of these people will find out the hard way one day but it's their cash at the end of the day and some folk can't be educated in reality until it's too late.

You will train with people that are on the same xp level then level up etc. I assure you that after just a month of training, you will see these vids in a diff light. Nothing against this vid nor the instructor, but as an MMA fighter this is tough to watch. Unfortunately the only people he is going to hurt is the ones he's instructing. As in setting them up for failure. I know he most likely has great intentions and it's awesome he's trying to help. But please for your sake, go to an MMA gym.

    First, the main focus is to counter the direct punch, because it is harder to see it. When a boxer punches you with a direct punch from the elbow (without moving his shoulder) in the nose, it is harder to stop. Second, all these blocks of the hook live the chance to get punched with the other hand, while you 'block' the shoulder.
    So, it is 10 times easier to stop the hook, because the movement of the elbow telephones you that this strike comes. You don't need almost any skill to fight a man who only uses this kind of attack, which means he doesn't know anything. If is more than hard to stop a direct. Try Wing Chun. For direct, PAK SAO, for the hook, bill sao + direkt punch at the same time.

The only real defence is to learn how to fight and that can only be done with real fighting sports like boxing , Thai boxing or MMA. Where you do real sparring . Where you learn about footwork , distance and how to predict patterns and telegraphic movements . Of course you only learn in these sports because if you don't you get hurt .
    Drills unless there is an element of randomness and pain involved are useless. Sparring drills are good but you punch me I block etc never works.

Either way even if it does makes sense the technique is not the issue it comes down to timing and spacing. If you are too close and one step or beat behind the attacker, it doesn't matter what you do even if you get both your hands up - if the attacker is an experienced street fighter then all you did is expose your mid section. No one is ever going tell you when, where and how they will hit you... besides any martial arts school worth its weight in salt knows that those John Wick moves he is referring to are just flow drills and are designed to develop skills and abilities and not meant to be used in a fight. Its like having to tell an adult that a Dr. Seuss book is not the way people talk in real life.
