Movement

Karate92

When you spar, if you do not move around continuously, you are a target. If you move, you are threat.

Tips on movement

  • Keep moving. Never stay in one place very long.
    • It helps you overcome stationary inertia. It is easier to change the direction of a moving body than a stationary one.
    • It allows you to react faster.
    • A moving target is harder to hit.
    • Keep changing guarding positions to cover all openings.
    • Constant motion allows a smooth transition from one technique to another with minimum time.
    • Lets you easily evade.
  • Shuffle rather than step. Move like a galloping horse, not like a hopping rabbit.
