Front Choke - Mae-Kubi-Jimi |
|
The technique shown below is
illustrated in my book Modern Self Defense for
the 21st Note: All techniques should be learned under the guidance of a qualified Jujitsu instructor. Care must be taken to ensure that Tori does not strike Uke. Kicks, and strikes must stop 6 inches short of the target. Additionally, only throw Uke onto a surface specifically designed to absorb such impact and only after proper break falls have been learned. Tori steps back into left Zenkutsu-Dachi while making fists with both hands, positioning them together, belt height. Tori brings both forearms upward between Uke’s forearms, breaking the choke (stopping the upward arm momentum when the fists are at forehead height). Next, Tori brings both fists downward upon the bridge of the nose, grabs the shoulders with both hands, throws a right Mae-Geri (front kick) to the groin, and throws Uke with O-Goshi. Maintaining the grip on the right elbow, Tori performs a Kansetsu-Geri (stomp kick) to the head.
The goal here is to get away, not subduing the attacker. That is why a stomp kick is used. Remember, without safety, there can be no Jujitsu. |
