Wow, this guy is great! He's so attuned to what uke is doing without even looking...great structure. I've been training FMA since April 2021 twice a week and plan to get to this point some day.
This stuff is great for when you've been half asleep, missed the threat, failed to take the initiative and been caught with your pants down. Action will almost always beat reaction but for those times when it doesn't, these are the skills that will get you home safely. It's also great fun to train.
Have you ever noticed that the classic Wing Chun knock-kneed stance (often used when doing Chi-Sau) is also great when you are caught with your pants down. Literally.
While I wouldn't use this particular technique in a fight, I can say from experience that these kinds of techniques come in handy for breaking up fights.
As with any JKD, Win Chun, Kali video, can anyone show me a video of these techniques being used in combat sports or on the streets or even in sparring going at 60% speed?? Not with static, choreographed partners? How come these instructors refuse to show this stuff working in sparring?
Because it doesn't work! Iv seen basic amateur boxers with only 2 month training knock ten shades out of these so called wing chun, jkd, kali masters. . It's all for show I'm afraid
It will definitely depend on the individual... its an energy drill that helps u react faster to motion... Boxing is amazing as it teaches you to actually get hit... In my JKD, boxing and panantukan (dirty boxing) are my favourites when it comes to training...Majority of the people who get into street fights do not know how to fight... So this type of training can actually help you control the opponents centerline...
@@user-kq3ch8mq1x Wrong . i have sparred with Rick way back in the 80s we were doing more or less MMA before its time . our sparring was hard and involved boxing, thai boxing, grappling and some trapping to close distance etc . He is one of the few people i have trained with that could pull of trapping during fast hard sparring . Rick is an excellent boxer , and an amazing grappler , he has won various bjj titles all over the world , he holds various black belts in a number of arts and is super humble. Believe me he is the real deal and not someone you would want to get into a real situation with. He is one of the most respected martial artists in the world.
@@BCCmma64bang Not disputing that he's awesome, I'll am asking for is a video of these techniques being used in actual sparring from those disciplines.
@@irbadltald2532 they are just drills for flow etc it's that simple. I have spared hard with him and believe me he can close the gap with a, trap han take you down before you can blink. If he were in a real fight he might use a momentary trap etc but it would be knees punches elbows headvutts etc etc. He is the first person I trained with who advocated biting noses and ears at close quarters.
I love and respect Rick and Bob Breen and have watched them for years but I have a question that I would love some input on; all welcome and appreciated: What real world application does trapping, in all it’s forms, have in real time combat? The positive effects on the brain’s development from this work, along with much of Kali, in particular stick work - is out there for anyone to see. BUT - if we are simply looking at fighting “as it is” I have to be objective and say I haven’t seen a single fight where anything looked like that. Now we could put this down the lack of people out there that can do it, but I must say that I don’t feel like I can really see it slotting in to any fight I’ve had or seen, also we have not seen any martial artist pull it off in the world of MMA (Silva has done some training with Guro Dan Inosanto and he had shown some Wing Chun-style flare as a distraction and showboating but even he who could be considered the greatest of all time seems to have made to real time applicable use of it). I love this stuff and would love it to be the answer, but that is a confirmation bias and I really want to get to the bottom of what these amazing guys like Rick and Bob think can be pulled off in pure force-on-force violence with absolute intent. To finish I just want to make absolutely clear that I know these men have copious amounts of experience in high level sparring and no doubt real world events also with their time working the doors etc, I have recently bought Guru Bob’s knife defence book and I will continue to support and enjoy all of his work but the same question comes to my mind - why can’t I see these methods seen in the flow drills etc being made to work real time when every time I have seen or participated in all out force-on-force with the knife it always looks much, much more “scruffy” and inevitably ends up in resorting to two-on-one and trying to take the opponent down and wrestle it off of him? I also LOVE the work of Phil Norman and even he despite his extensive experience with Guro Dan, Guro Bob and countless other masters of these fantastic arts, seems to be looking more towards that “scruffy” but robust and effective means of disarms. There are countless great benefits to studying the arts and this I know to be the truth, but if one were purely looking to streamline one’s training to get the functional stuff down, for military/security purposes for example (Phil is doing some great work with some very high-level outfits) - what would give the most bang for the training buck? Thanks for the video content 🙏
Bradley Thompson it’s good that you are thinking and analyzing Trapping is a moment... it may happen or not ... it’s a means to an end ... It’s said be as simple as you can be but as complex as you need to be Not everything is going to be part of your own toolkit Keep doing your own research
hey i know im just some guy on the internet but i can tell you iv used it in several street fights, but trapping must be used in short spurts for instance you would use this specific drill when you engage with contact with your opponent if he was out of range you would box then get close then trap, trapping is a tool range wise when i was in high school i would get bullied and have to fight, the way you train with wing chun and jkd is to start out long range boxing, make contact trap, chain punch, then vice versa for a real fighting effect. just drill and light spar youll get the hang of it just dont think youll be looking like neo in the matrix hope this helps.

From my personal experience, trapping mainly comes in handy in scenarios where someone has to be subdued, such as in breaking up a fight or restraining someone before the fight breaks out. True story: I work with people with severe mental illness, and there have been several times I've had to break up fights and restrain individuals. One particular time, I had to restrain someone for almost 20 minutes until the police could arrive and take over. The trapping techniques allowed me to redirect every punch that person made and maintain a close grapple without causing any body harm to the person or myself, also allowing me to keep up the pace for those 20 minutes with minimal fatigue. So no, against a trained fighter, trapping wouldn't work, and in a self-defense scenario, it wouldn't work either, but for the purpose of subduing and restraint, trapping does come in handy.

Guro Rick an awesome Elder (meaning experienced & seasoned) in JKD & FMA, mad respect for you & your skill. A salute to you sir.
This stuff is great for when you've been half asleep, missed the threat, failed to take the initiative and been caught with your pants down.
Action will almost always beat reaction but for those times when it doesn't, these are the skills that will get you home safely.

Mr. Young is incredible anyway! But I would be proud if I could do as good as his training partner. Thank you very much for this great demonstration.
You are looking great Guro Rick! Love the clip and material! Thanks for sharing, Guro!
Guro Rick Young always amazing
Great mister Rick young. See you the next week-end for seminary with other mister Terry Barnett.
Great videos Ricky!!!

basically it helps you kick the shit out of someone, and helps your insecurities deminish!
Thank you for this video.

Hi! There is online kali courses with guro rich?
How is Hubud applied against an attack of any kind. For example... A boxer, or someone putting on the bumsrush with wild punches etc.
