ENTER THE MATRIX AND WATCH THE FULL VIDEO LESSON CAREFULLY:
Repeated viewings of GM Perkins’ movement while flowing with students yields tremendous insights into how to react properly; words cannot fully convey this but you will begin to feel in your own body what is effective GC movement.
► 2 person board training with boards in a T formation allows 1 person to have superior balance, thus forcing the weaker positioned person to up their skill level. John reveals ABSOLUTELY CRITICAL BALANCE TRAINING INFO.
► How to defeat that advantage with superior skill.
► This involves yielding appropriately and more accurately finding your partner’s center i.e., being Unavailable and Unavoidable.
► This trains you to “Isolate” your target points better for greater unavailability.
► This involves going lower (dropping) and never yielding backwards. Ideally, you isolate/yield/drop while subtly moving forward, what John calls “Descending Parabolic Motion.”
► John shows that even if you are in the weaker board position, if you can find where their heels are, you can unbalance them in that direction.
► Starting around 4:10, John gives VITAL training info that everyone should review and practice diligently! Watch repeatedly and LEARN.
► 5th Degree Tina Dawn shows how it works even against a much bigger and heavier opponent. Watch and listen carefully!
► John then explains WHY you train this way: it applies to a multiple attacker situation when you can’t step or change your foot position.
► Everything after this is TRAINING GOLD and you need to watch this, learn and practice.
