Training Drills

[SabreToothMan]

I train with three other Black Belts once a week. We practice drills from class and responce training on a regular basis. But we need some fresh ideas. Does anyone have any advice for online sources of drills in punching/kicking/blocking or stick/knife fighting as well as joint locking or other takedowns. I would appreciate any info provided.

Thanks Kicks. That page had some good ideas. I was looking more for individual drills than a workout list. For example downward strike to the head with a stick blocking with a slanting block. Checking the strikers hand and using your blocking stick to attack downward onto the partners head. Then he must recover his stick to perform a slanting block again. This drill can go quite fast and test your blocking speed as well as your ability to check (momentarilly control the striking hand as you retaliate with your own strike) the partners strike. Thanks again though.

If you are working with sticks, you can attempt different lock variations based off a downward or sideways strike by an attacker. I know that I have worked with people and done a technique where you each have an escrima stick and one attacks either overhand or sideways. You intercept with blow with your own stick and slide into different locks using the stick. I'm sure you can visualize this it's a bit difficult to describe. During some of the locks you hope the person holds onto their stick, if they don't it makes you think fast in an attempt to procure a different hold, etc. It can get quite interesting trying to think on the fly and create different locks you may or may not have known were there before.
