Traditional Shaolin Blocking Technique - Las Vegas Kung Fu Acdemy

Описание: Go Here: http://www.lvshaolin.com/ | Are you looking for Traditional Shaolin Martial Arts Classes in Las Vegas, Nevada?

The Shaolin style of kung fu has many different blocking techniques. Here we are covering a double slap block called Pan Sau (Cantonese). Most of the blocks are designed to injure opponents striking arm while blocking at the same time. There are basically two concepts to striking while blocking. The first is to strike using follow-through. Do not just touch the surface but rather penetrate through. This concept can lead to producing some ugly looking welts on the opponent's arm. The second concept is to use speed when blocking. I know this sounds like common sense, but I have found that most beginners confuse pushing with striking. instead of having their hands moving at the fast speed at the beginning of the blocking motion, they execute the block slowly at first then speed it up at the end of the movement. This produces a pushing effect and will not have any power.

The monks who lived at the Shaolin temple were pacifists and did not want to kill anyone. So many of the techniques of their Shaolin Kung Fu were defensive in nature. However, in a real self-defense situation one of the best ways to get out alive is to strike first, rather than a counter. Striking first will give you the element of surprise and is much easier to execute than trying to block an incoming punch. We try to teach beginners both concepts so they feel that they understand the realities of actual self-defense.

We would very much like you to be our next student, and hopefully our next black belt. Call us today at 702-336-1095.
