I don't think the torture porn teaching method really works that well by the way.
My teacher was primarily a boxer. He advocated hitting first and hitting hard. Cops don't normally hit first.

BTW is that "torture porn"? ...Not widely versed in porn. Momma won't let me watch it. :(

Short answer it is restomping the groin.

So self defence invent this idea that there are these bad guys that are ultra violent but also incompetent. Creating this scenario where you can justify using the baddest of moves but also so crap that these moves will work for your average soccer mum.

I assume it to convince people they are powerful without ever having to learn how to fight.

I still don’t get the connection. Torture porn?

I like the second video, very entertaining. I wonder how much their boot camp is.

Do you dance?
Only if with a girl. And not like in the video :)
Use a back fist and pull your opponent's blocking arm when you do a roundhouse kick is a good set up.

The difference between MA solo training and dancing is the combat intend. With combat intend, it's not dancing.

This is why a traffic cop cannot become a MA person because the lack of combat intend.
Yeah, it's definitely not a dance. It only looks like a dance :)
Just a good execution of the movement. I really liked it. When I said it looked like a dance, it meant that the performer was moving well. Even if he has fighting intentions.

Me neither! :oops:

Don't want that on my search history.

It is more of a horror movie genre. But yeah. I would google images or anything.

Zombie movies are theoretically the same thing. They create a bad guy that you can be as violent as you want to. And then make them so inefficient that normal people don't struggle killing them.

Now that’s a good analogy. You gotta hit ‘em in the head.

Yes. Now I get your meaning. This is exactly what a lot of MA self defense programs do. Good reference.
