After a good warm up we focused on countering a Jab using the Before-During-After Drill:
1. Before the jab is executed
2. While the jab is executed
3. After the jab is executed
We started with AFTER. Your partner jabs at your face...you catch or parry the jab...straight blast and get to the neck.
We then practiced DURING. You and your partner jab at the same time...you cannot reach his face so you low line kick (shin) to open the high line...straight blast and get to the neck.
We ran out of time for the BEFORE drill. We will get to it next time.
Note: you can do these drills with just about any attack. Practice the jab and move to the cross, grab, kicks...etc.
