No nonsense, clearly explained teaching, Insightful, and effective. The Holy grail of fight mechanics
Been following Lee for years , even when he's stood talking and relaxed he looks like he's about to take someone's head off their shoulders 😂😂👊🏽
"It's *all* bad."
Not enough combat trainers out there teaching people that fighting *is to be avoided* even (and especially) when you know how to handle yourself. Good stuff.
There's not enough trainers showing how to properly beat the shit out of someone who seriously needs it .
@@QuantumPyrite_88.9 beat them and leave before the cops show.
@@ironwolfgaming9632 I have more than once .
@@QuantumPyrite_88.9 same - taught someone brass knuckles only work if they get to punch you :)
@@QuantumPyrite_88.9 If someone's a grown man and can't already do that, there's no point in looking for someone to teach them now. They should just keep quiet and call the cops when things go bad. Not even kidding.
"Hit him when he twitches" ... combat in one statement!! Pure class ... other two would be difficult to achieve but #3 definitely is ..
Thats awesome truth. I've seen it hundreds of times as a Sheriff's deputy, fight or flight gets worked up and bam they explode unless you are preemptive. Keep up the great work, thanks and God bless
Not sure if it has been mentioned already but another benefit of grabbing them after the first shot is that if u have sparked them, they won’t smash their head off the pavement and get their revenge on u from the afterlife. So many idiots have started fights, got knocked out and killed from secondary impact with the floor leading to innocent people being portrayed as monsters and jailed for defending themselves.
That's exactly what I was thinking.
I'm sure you can give 1 example (That wasn't Agatha Christie) If so many people have been killed, and innocently imprisoned for their murder (Despite Forensics being able to make that determination) I'm sure you can provide 1 example.

For that reason body shots are very good. No risk from brain damage, no serious injuries, just the pain you need to escape
Finally a guy that knows what he's talking about. Well done to you Sir.
Much the same as the Japanese principle of Sen = Before. The 3 preemptive attack initiatives.
Sen, Sen no Sen ( Before the before) Act as soon as you sense a threat,
Sen no sen (Before) Act if the opponent motions to attach
Go no sen (After the before) Avoid oncoming attack & counter. Body movement & striking is as one.
I used to read the book of five rings over and over as a young guy trying to make sense of Musashis teachings. Its not the most straightforward book but there's a lot of visdom passed on from a man who dedicated his life to understanding the art of winning the fight. Now I just have to dust it off and reread it. Subscribed.
Best combat channel out there. From Ireland 🇮🇪
love watching your teachings......cheers from germany
Palm strike to the face, chin all day. A straight projection is almost impossible to block.
One of my teachers just expressed the palm strike in our last class :) great video!
100% thats why distance is so important you should never get that close to an aggressor so he has to move forward to strike leaving him vulnerable.
@Sam Luckily only in training. I have been struck with it wearing a full redman suit many times and it shakes the brain, and as i said, I couldn't block it.
Knife hand to the carotid is a knock out . Throat punch is a fight ender and a potential kill shot . Eye strike is a definite fight ender .
@@Domn879If you're dismissing these techniques it's because you're thinking this video is about two people squaring off. It's not. It's a surprise attack that the other person isn't expecting.
You've never watched a UFC fight stopped for an eye-poke? Train to punch the throat and get the potential KO if the chin gets caught. ALL military combative programs teach a carotid strike because it works.
100% real. Lee is a true legend. He’s been such a fantastic help during lockdown. Can’t thank him enough.
Agreed 💥💯
@Democrats Are The Modern Day Nazi Party No fighting experience ... really ?
@Democrats Are The Modern Day Nazi Party Expand on your reply ... Cupcake wannabe .
An extremely well articulated demo and bang on the money!!
Brilliant as usual from Lee
Great insights. It's uncommon to see modern practical interpretations of Mushashi's work, especially for empty hand fighting. I would also like to give props to the guy with the pads for being a good uke(training dummy) he'd make a good stuntman. His reactions to the strikes looked so real it made me think he studied at the Lebron James school of flopping😁
the only thing i will add here is; Musashi lived in a bygone era where the rule of self protection wasnt as it is now "reasonable force" hadnt been coined, and today's enemy is slightly different.
Dont get me wrong Im all for pre-emptive strikes. My whole "system" is based on avoidance and preemptive attacks (as we all know blocks dont work) and my "base art" is Wing Chun thats been modified
Being "pro active" and "preemptive" is the way to go Geoff Thompsons teachings taught me that, but you have to be careful here the law is generally regarded as the "SECOND ENEMY" ha Musashi didnt have to deal with plod . . . . so watch your body positioning keep that distance employ that fence and watch how you "talk with your hands" coz as we all know big fucking brother is watching you and the evidence will convict you, so play to the cameras play defensive whilst laying that trap, play dumb play non threatening coz you never know who is watching!
Thats true but it sounds like a lot of training to just practice that posture for the camera's sake. If one doesn't do that then that's some wasted fractions of a second. If I have a situation, I'm assuming he's trying to take my life. Ill worry about the law later. Rather be judged by 12 than carried by 6. FYI, Wing Chun is my base style too. I love the frame, sensitivity and reflexes it breeds
@@Peacekeepa317 train enough to make it appear natural talking hands is alien to most but if practiced well enough it will become part of you its only a matter of raising the hands in a manner that portrays " i dont want no trouble" backing away shaking the head hands in front palm facing the opponent. . . .looks good enough to claim self defence in my book if it works then . .result if not . . . his intentions are clear and its welcome to my world.
@@michaelreynolds6543 I'm going to add that to my training. I been trying to incorporate 52 blocks in my frame. That fits well. Appreciate your insight bro.
@@Peacekeepa317 if you can find it mate I would hunt down 3 second fighter by Geoff Thompson also another one called the fence you have to have these 2 books the info is worth a thousand techniques
This Gold! Articulate, and captivating competent instructor.
Lee is great. I love the quote, “A one sided beating is what works. That’s why we’re using it.”
I was given a lesson very similar to this about combat, street fighting and pre-emptive striking when I was ten years old by my uncle who fought in Vietnam and was part of MACV-SOG operations. He would continue to live in southeast Asia for many years studying fighting styles to be used and adapted to combat applications. I could rarely see his hands or attacks coming. This video was very informative regarding the realities of this topic.
Love his videos, realistic and effective.
Thank you for sharing Sifu.
If your blocking ,then ur losing , love this. great stuff as per usual, Lots of love from the Gary Spiers clan ,
Nice to see Musashi referenced.
So totally refreshing to see this on UA-cam amidst the one touch knockouts and chi masters, Morrison is one who says the truth- HIT THE SON OF A BITCH!
Fighting is basically physics with rhythm. It involves force vectors, angles of attack, and so many other variables. He is not wasting time on pseudo-spiritual bs. No fancy uniforms or rituals passing as talent.
I like Geoff Thompson a lot also. I don't teach anymore but I developed the "6 to 10 hour training model." People have busy lives- wife, kids, job, school. How many can get to a gym even 20 hours a week? It is about impossible as an adult. But if you can train say 6 to 10 hours a week you can develop some decent street kills. And you have to keep it simple- some decent strikes, some groundwork and weapons. Better to be good at a few things than crappy at a lot. You will never be Conor McGregor or even close, but you may be more than good enough for a street thug or just be able to get away. Running is not discussed nearly enough in martial arts programs.
I've been on such a mad journey with martial arts/Krav and Miyamoto Musashi. It's just too much to really write. But the fact it's being covered on here is another crazy thing. I read the 21 rules of life every day to remind me to stay on my path and believe in the process!
Brilliant content Lee. Thank you very much 🙏
I’ve been a Krav Maga practitioner for 18 years, can’t Thankyou and your team enough Lee, great stuff.
is sparring common in krav maga training?
@@pabskingofswing7540 depends on the school. We do a lot of fight drills.
Excellent information.
True no nosense no messing around.
Job done.
OSU AND THANK YOU,
FOR THE REAL REALITY OF HIT FIRST
AND KEEP ATTACKING UNTIL THE BAD GUY CAN'T GET UP.
EVER AGAIN.
THAT'S CALLED GIVING NO QUARTER.
"If you could've left, you should've." I find that immensely helpful. These teachings are high-level in every way.
He is incredible!!! He knows his stuff!!! Thank you Lee!!!
Geoff Thompson vibes..
Then you go to jail😏
The cops will ask who made the first move?
not true. The attacker is the one who provoked , and gave him no room to escape. Plenty of wiggle room to get out of trouble. Lawyer up.
Most attacks I've seen, either violent crimes they have weapons out already to intimidate victim.
Yup... if not and they're small , they gotta concealed shank
Not that usual with serious people, they know how to use blades and such. But might be cultural thing too and differences
Spot on exactly what i have taught people.
Fantastic video Lee! Thanks for the great insight into preemptive striking.
About legal consecuenses. I use my other hand straight in front and say dont touch me I feel unsafe. So, if one breaks that distance I have better changes with cops to stay out of prison.
Hello from Finland
the art of real street fighter, defense personal
The hands up is absolutely on point. It's universally known and would be a critical point should you get into trouble with the police over any incident. Quite the opposite to a traditional guarding stance which comes across as aggressive and confrontational even in defence. Good video
Great video , thanks
Spot on, however, i would say a lot of people in this environment.......you dont get to look a certain way by walking away ( the best option ) theres a great deal of people that always say you should always avoid confrontation but judging by their scars, ears and bent nose they clearly do not do that and are just a bomb waiting for someone to start on them, there's a huge difference between someone who knows how to handle themselves and someone who is just praying for a fight.
Great video. Great advice. Would love to be able to attend Lee's classes.
Incredibly real information
Great stuff again!! Too many fake ass instructors out there, but this guy is the real deal.
Be mean but be first. Excellent instruction as per usual.
Lee is always the real Deal.... He walked the Walk and when he talkes the Talk, you better open your Ears... ;-) Always great Content! Stay safe and Cheers!
Rarely see anyone attempt to teach Musashi.
Still haven't.
@@marclacey2263 I said "attempt" for a reason, and he did attempt to.
@Blackbeard Tactical Thanks for sharing. I may do that.
"If you could've left, you should've left."
Yep. No point in taking the unnecessary risk.
I have done boxing and mma for 25 years and i win most of my fights by about 100 metres, LOL. You are so right, i have no interest in fighting on the street even if the guy is a dweeb. I only had one fight where running was not an option as there was two of them and they blocked my car in and attacked me so now i have 2 assault charges ( 1 more and i will go to jail ) for defending my self. It's always a lose lose situation
It's a male ego thing. Once you get over that you realise the master of any combative situation is the person that percieves it and avoids it without having to take any offensive action. Far too many keyboard warriors think that as long as they use techneque A, B and C, everything will work out fine. It won't on many occasions.
@@jamesallen6309 Truth. Unless you ABSOLUTELY are required to fight, you don't. Doesn't make you a coward or less of a man. It makes you wise in a manner that even King Solomon would have approved of.
good advice
I prefer a. solid full power punch to the solar plexus. Folds them over every time.
Short little left hook to the liver, keep the thumb up, then turn palm up just before contact, using hips and shoulders,
This was one of the best material art self defense/attack videos I’ve ever seen.
Loved the philosophy and the very very important thing he said about not lose your contact and not stop attacking until you are safe.
"I'm going to beat him, then I'm going to leave." That's not only great self-defense advice, it's great legal advice. As an attorney I can tell you, you don't want to be around when the cops show up or linger long enough for someone to be able to give them a good description of you. Better to not get arrested than to have to pay me several thousand dollars to defend you in court.
this is also what Geoff Thompson stressed too - 3 preemptive strikes - Musashi FTW!!!
real good advice im ex doorman 31 years in brum,, ive watched so many fakes on here, this is real deal
Goes through like 4 guys to demonstrate on. Poor fellas. That's a bad man there.
This explanation is based on true experience in street fight, Lee is a real deal, he has tasted the ugly truth in street conflicts, we are lucky he shares it!
All things I had learned and executed upon others long before I got to High School. But good stuff if you’ve never been a fighter.
Palm strike on the face, yeah it's so true because bare knuckle punch on the head can bust your knuckle and you can no longer fight for a period of time. Palm strike is safer and you can still fight after that.
Maximum respect! This is so true!
Boy this is true. I will always try n leave. But I will fight if need be & I will be the wild animal also. This is what they teach & it’ll work. These guys are better trained than me. ✌️
Worldclass! Really very very good video! Thank you.
He read the fucking book alright enough.Clearly he has applied it.
Great video!👍👌👊
Thank's lee,regards from germany!
I live in a ridiculously violent town given how few people live here (roughly 150K) but the law is a complete arse when it comes to assault. There is some bizarre 1950s attitude that the better man always walks away. Even the cops seem to wait for an aggressive punter to lay into them before they all pile on - its weird after growing up in Sydney and seeing Police routinely lay into people for giving them attitude (granted, they weren't surrounded by people with cameras in hand back then). Thanks for the video.
Keep in mind that The Book of 5 Rings was at least grossly exaggerated, and one of his "Pre-emptions" was challenging someone to a duel, hiding up a tree, and jumping out to hit the enemy when he showed up looking for him. That's Miyamoto Musashi. Just FYI.
Which isn't to say there's ANYTHING wrong with the instruction in this video. There isn't it's just that "Musashi says..." Yeah, well Musashi said a lot of stuff. So much that it couldn't all be true.
All you guys look good 👍 in fitness in this video and MUSASHI , I have all his books!!! Thank you for sharing!!!!
As i was taught...hit first, hit fast, hit hard!
Still the best.
mick coup may disagree lol
I've only had 1 'street' fight but I'm 1-0 ! This guy's info matches my experience. I made the mistake of letting the guy get right in my face instead of keeping him at range with my lead hand like this guy says...So we grappled and it was a stalemate, I fell down and back but got up quickly, he advanced on me with with hands half down, I said stay back a few times but he tried walking me down so I angled away from his power hand and hit him with 3-5 hooks starting with a right lead, right to the jaw. His eyes glazed over as he took a knee and said "WTF man!" and I backed off at an angle towards my room door, kept my guard up with my power hand showing, saying leave the room now or else I'll go again. He left. So if I coudl go back, I'd punch stop him with my lead hand and if he pressed, I'd punch him with my power left cross, and and slip/ duck, crack him with a right hook to the dome as I angle away and walk back to see if he wants more
This instructor is genius! I love the psychological aspects he makes everyone aware of i mean ive been in so many bar fights street fights in my younger days and looking back on it noone grabs the other everyone seems to hit and wait like their in a mma ring or boxing match and hes right that is very dumb and could eventually get ya killed... this man is amazing his insight is amazing! Well done brother!
Red-headed step-child here, had a dozen street fights, was jumped, cracked ribs, faced stitched up, etc. Then I started training at age of 25. By 29 I was fucking formidable. I am now in my 50s and can honestly say I have not yet had to use my skills outside of a Dojo, Gwoon, or Tournament. However, I have had several occasions where if I did not have those skills, I would have been a victim again. Mr. Morrison is very correct, listen to him, develop your Inner Reacher!
Simple man here.
I see Musashi, I click, I subscribe and I pay attention.
Brilliant! Salute from NY, US. Just subscribed.
Excellent 👌👌👌
Nice job. I didn’t know Andy Serkis was a fight trainer.
This was excellent!
I really like this although this will not work in some countries like Russia for example as there is no pre fight chat ,but in general this guy is brilliant 👍
Born like a killing machine... talent has been given
Exactly on point! Amazing knowledge! Simple and effective! Respect!
Seems like Urban Combatatives is more about the delivery of the first "sucker punch" or a kick to the balls...I ask for expanded techniques and other options....respectfully
bull! Always defend yourself and hit second, just after his shot flies... if you're not a coward. If you're coward, and you are afraid, hit first. What a Hell, than carry a gun with you. so the mommy's little precious girl won't have a bleeding nose from time to time. The world these two-fights-in their-lifetime "legends" create is a world of brutal cowards. Be strong, never hit first! You'll be alright! These days, when people fight less, are more brutal and less gentlemenesque than the good ol' days when we were fighting every Friday and Saturday night at the pub. No respect!
Looks like a scrappy dude. He's about my age and fitness level- wish we could fight (for fun and practice, not ego or anger).
Good luck with that!! Would never take on Lee even for fun!
I don't think he does " fun".
Thanks for the tip on the open hands. I had a couple of individuals Try to provoke me into striking first because they knew there was cameras present These people were so not fighters. If the camera was not there they would not tried to provoke me. Like that Baby Huey got himself shot provoking that delivery guy. UA-cam it. And as Musashi said " Do nothing that is not of use."
"Street Violence is Asymmetrical"!!! - Well said, not like the ring, it's one-sided, advantage placement.
Lee
A bloke of Culture
I don't know. The last time I used a preemptive strike it didn't work. My fist strike to the chin was not enough as the guy was though as nails. Then the fight began and the next thing I was being choked to death. I mean how could he took my full force hit so well ? Just saying there should be a plan B.
I haven't found such comment like yours before, very interesting, good that you've shared your situation. Indeed we may meet sometimes someone who is really though and I guess it is quite difficult situation...
I think that you did well anyway if you wrote that comment haha.
Plan B is needed, but I think it is split second decision then, so maybe better to follow up the preemptive strike with a kick to the groin? Just thinking out loudly... It would be like plan AB - if A works, then great but you make sure guy won't hurt you just in case he is some though mofo.
@@Christopher26021994 I heard on the internet that guys with very solid necks take puches very well. That guy sure had a very strong neck. So we should watch out for a wide, muscular neck ! Plan B... maybe a pen or something. Anyway a stunned reaction as to "why my strike didn't work" is the worst reaction.
Agreed, hit then keep hitting, or hit and get in close for a choke from behind.
Great video. I have always believed in hitting hard, hitting fast and getting away as fast as possible. The risks are too great in a street or bar brawl. Getting suckered or jumped, getting hit with an object or even worse, stabbed or shot to death.
The first two will get you in all kinds of legal trouble.
I most countries yelling and being angry does not warrant the other person to attack you.
First trained with Lee in Coventry in about 2004. Learnt a lot then and am still learning
Exceptional technique. Beautiful movements.
Excellent teach and quick hands!
If you do a preemptive, you better make sure he's going out because you're really going to have problem!
Fantastic instruction.
Truth.
The eyes of the law

MARTIAL ARTS WANNABEE'S ARE A DIME A DOZEN ON THE INTERNET SHOWING OFF SO MUCH THEY DON'T KNOW AND ACTING OUT AS CLOWNS FOR ATTENTION..TOO FUNNY
This is brilliant stuff. Do you recommend punching closed-fist, or finger jab, or palm strike for pre-emptions?
Up to you, but the general rule is; hard on soft, soft on hard. ie fist to throat or palm onto nose. The main thing is practise!
ARE PRE EMPTIONS LEGAL AT ALL ?
Yes, if you reasonably believe he is about to attack you. Also, the amount of force you use must be reasonable AND, you can't keep banging away once the threat from him is no longer there.
Qué Mal educado el Instructor!!!! Tironeando de la ropa de sus colaboradores en lugar de pedirles que se paren donde él desea. Irrespetuoso!!
And then you go I'm front of a judge and get done for assault because you hit first lol
Learn the law mate. You are allowed to hit first in self defence if you have an honest belief you are going to be attacked. The law doesnt state you have to wait to be attacked first. But if thats what you wanna do, good luck with that. Hope you're health insurance is up to date.
