    The videos on this UA-cam channel are NOT a replacement for actual instruction. They do not teach techniques, but instead isolate and fix problems within the technique or its individual components. The videos are designed to help the student who has already learned the technique under the instruction of a qualified instructor.
    Important Note: These videos are specific to the techniques and curriculum taught to the students at our facility. Students from other Krav Maga schools and organizations are more than welcome to watch and use these videos and we hope they find them useful! However, variations may be taught that are different from the techniques taught at other Krav Maga locations. This doesn't mean one variation is wrong or the other is right. They are just variations...plain and simple. The most important question for any technique or defense should be this: Does it work for the individual who is performing it? As long as it does, then the technique or variation has merit, regardless of where it comes from! That's the number one principle that we emphasize at our school.

    "Hi, this is Randall with KravMagaTraining.com. In this video I'm going to discuss some important details to delivering a proper eye strike. I found with the eye strike there's a lot of small details that are often neglected by most students. I'm going to address those today, cover them, and explain why they are important.
    First with the eye strike is the a proper hand position. If you've watched any of my other videos when it comes to the, for example, the 360 defenses, or the palm strikes, or the chops, the hand position is exactly the same. So if you've watched those videos and you've already gone over this hand position, I apologize for repeating myself. But it's really the same hand positioning and it's really important.
    Most beginners, when they deliver an eye strike, they just have a poor hand position. The thumb's sticking out like this, the fingers are apart, their hand is just not very stable and there's a good chance they are going to injure their fingers in their strikes are not going to be as strong.
    So here's the appropriate details to a good hand position for the eye strike. First of all, the thumb, I want to take the knuckle on the thumb and I want to bend it and tuck my thumb in. This does two things. One, when you bend the knuckle on the thumb you will feel your hand tighten up. It will get really strong. Where as this is hanging out like this, it's kind of loose and not stable. Also, you're more likely to get your thumb bent back and injured. So if you bend that knuckle on the thumb you're going to feel your hand get a lot stronger. It's like the equivalent of making a tight fist when you punch. Well this is like a tight hand position for when you deliver the eye strike.
    The next thing is, when you have this hand position, if your fingers tend to bend slightly, that's normal. Everyone is a little different when it comes to that. But the most important thing is that your fingers need to be together to stabilize each other. Sometimes I see new students, they kind of get a little sloppy and their hands are like this. You want your fingers together because they are less likely to get injured when they are supporting each other. A common position for this hand is called a knife hand position in a lot of traditional martial arts. I've never seen any style have a position called a fork hand. All right. Because I'm sure there's some crazy ass style that does something weird like that but most styles they teach to keep the fingers together because they know it's a lot safer for your hand.
    So that's the proper hand position when you deliver your eye strike. Make sure that you start with that. Don't neglect that..."
