Defanging the Snake

 

I attended a clinic with John Kerker held in Springfirld Mass back in 1983 and he did an part of the seminar on Defanging the Snake.

 

Everyone in Karate spends much time making their strikes as effective as they can. Even employing supplemental exercises such knuckle pushups and makiwara training.

 

The idea of Defanging the Snake is the use of a method to take the p;ower out of their fist strikes.


These 3 short videos are from that seminar.

 

 


 

 



 

 



 

 

Of course this is very painful so practice slowly and carefully.

 

Just a small detail you might find useful.
