V's anybody?


Recommended Posts

Does anyone martial arts style or dojo, use V training as a self defense exercise.

 

The style of Jiu-jitsu I practise does, and I was wondering if anyone else had tried it and what they thought of it? :karate:

Mind, body and fist. Its all a man truly needs.

V's are a full class exercise for defnse against several attackers or consecutive attacks.

 

The class is arranged into to lines which meet at the ends (a v shape) and the defender faces the apex of the v.

 

The sensei then sends out attackers at whatever pace he feels appropriate (usually just more than you can handle to push you). The attacker can use any attacks they wish, although fancy kicks are frowned upon but not unheard of.

 

The attacks start with unarmed strikes and grabs, then progressing to the plastuse of rubber knives and plastic bottles, then coshes and plastic chains, then bokkens and baseball bats and eventually real knives, swords chains etc.

 

The aims is to make the jitsuka confident and efficient, able to execute techniques under pressure and against multiple attackers (within possible limits), and against a range of attacks. The key is to remain calm(thus learning how to deal with adrenaline), and be swift using good techniques to finsih each attacker swiftly and finally (hopefully not killing anyone although some injuries are bound to happen).

 

That more or less sums it up. Whats the public opinion?

Mind, body and fist. Its all a man truly needs.
