bushido_man96 Posted June 17, 2012 Posted June 17, 2012 I don't like the term "block". we are really striking the incoming limb. I either strike the attack with a shuto or parry the attack and strike the neck.Take the rising block for example, think of using it as a jab, quickly rising and striking the undside the the arm then returning. Can be very painful for the attacker.I have stopped using the blocks as in the traditional way of locking the block out and use them as you would a strike or kick.RegardsIn Shindokan, we don't block...we deflect. Yeah, you deflect people to the other side of the room! And I enjoy it quite a lot; better them than me!! I see how ya are! https://www.haysgym.comhttp://www.sunyis.com/https://www.aikidoofnorthwestkansas.com
