A big thanks to all who posted on this, it makes me appretiate the training i have received. We did free sparring in my TKD training. My Kenpo training had point sparring. Both had solid self defense tactics.As for chambering, it is a training tool to teach you to get you entire body into the technigue. Both times i've had to defend myself my training has saved me from taking a beating. I think in all styles you have good/bad schools. Your brain is always your best weapon in any situation. Stances are to teach balance not for actual use in SD situations. |
