Multiple
Striking is found in many arts. The ability to develop a successive technique
flowing from a preceding technique.
I
first became aware of it from Tris Sutrisno and the drill he shared.
Later
on I recognized in a drill shared by Toshiro
Oshiro, where he was following strikes with a backfiss. In its essence it is found in
Okinawan karate.
Another
variation is what I call layered striking, where strike follows strike on the
same point, to use the successive strikes to break down the body ability to
take a punch and allow later strikes to do their damage.
Consider
the Isshinryu basic drill with 5 strikes
to the same point as an example.
I
ran across this drill demonstrated by Kang Cecep.
The
opening strike is another example of a layered strike, which is also a multiple
strike.
The
drill begins with a finger tip strike, then the fingers fold in and form a fore
knuckle strike completing with a finishing straight punch.
All
3 tools striking the same point, where the fingers keep folding into the next
strike, then the drill continues with other striking, one following another.
