How we teach
One piece at a time.
Striking starts at the feet. Power is made in the hips, and the hips only turn and open the right way when your stance and footwork are right. Then the hands come home. We teach it in that order, slow first, then at full speed.
-
01
Feet first.
Stance and footwork come before anything else. Where your feet are decides whether a strike has power and whether you are still balanced after it.
-
02
Turn the hips.
Power is made in the hips, not by swinging harder. Good footwork is what lets them turn and open, so the strike lands heavy.
-
03
Hands stay home.
Land it and bring it straight back. The hand that is not striking stays at your chin, every rep.
