Who has started to practice the 12 Defense & Counters yet?
Defense is the cornerstone of Balintawak BUT true application is how one turns solid defense to a dominating offense. That makes the difference between exclusively defending or taking control of a situation. The Defense & Counter in Module 2, Lesson 7 is the foundation to many drills and freeplay in the future. Video 1 we demonstrate the 12 Defense and Counters (without footwork). Video 2, we are freeplaying in a controlled manner to work reaction, and the ability to deal with multiple responses simultaneously while attempting to take control. What are your thoughts?
