Learn to defend a leg takedown by sprawling, diverting the leg, and twisting to keep your opponent from grounding you. The instructor emphasizes constant hand contact on your opponent's head to read their movement and stay ahead of their attacks.
if I'm that much quicker than him. If he's better than me or a little bit smarter, then perhaps he will shoot, I'll do my burt, he'll miss the front leg and take this rear one. Obviously I'm going to need to adjust in order to compensate for that. So if I go this way, you'll see what happens. So he shoots, I go here, I put him across, he takes my rear leg. Obviously I'm going to have to turn and sprawl against him. He's looking for this leg, I then bring my bottom leg through to take his hand off of this one. So I'll show you a little bit quicker. So here, there's my sprawl, my weight's on top, I can obviously attack from there. Now, come through if you're alright. Now it's obviously key for me to maintain contact with him. I must stick with him so that I know where his movement is and where his energy is going in order for me to manipulate it. So I'll show you that side once more. Here, I'm looking for that. This leg may go straight. Now his only option really is to continue out and round. As he does, I back up into position, back to the first one that we did in the, in the first lesson. So my hand just sticks with the head. So I'll show you once more. Here, on the way, if he continues, hand finds the head. That then keeps him away from there, you see? Thank you. So, pretty simple stuff. You just have to be slightly quicker. So basically, whatever he does, you do more. It's that simple. With our Wing Chun, you're always perhaps 3 movements ahead, 4 movements ahead. With JKD, maybe 5, 6, 7 movements ahead, providing you know what you're doing. You have to have a certain level of skill, obviously, and it all comes from your practice. So as long as you know when he comes, your lead leg switches, diverts him away. Of course, you're going to have to move both legs. So he's here, as you shoot, lead leg goes first as this one comes forward. Now, as you divert him across, if this leg doesn't move quick enough, like so, in order to get rid of him, he will take that leg. You will then, of course, have to switch. But it's all about sticking with him. So I'm here and I move. If he catches that leg, I switch out completely in order to prevent him getting deep enough to obviously take me down to the floor. Because if I'm crap on the floor, he's going to get on top, start raining down, and bash my head in. And that's something we don't want, not in the street or in competition. Thanks for watching, guys. I'll see you next time.
