The fencing footwork has been the most difficult thing to apply,so I still end up reverting back to kenpo footwork when sparring.

Fencing footwork? That makes me think of lunges and side stepping. Could you give some details?


Hey.... where you going Ricardo? Happy hours still got 10 minutes.

Besides it's payday for Gary! We'll let him hang with us and he can cover our tab. :D

I copied this into Tracy kenpo since I am an apapted Tracyite now! :ultracool

you are striking Triple Warmer/Heater 12

In our Eagles Beak the first strike to a nerve is between the bicep/tricep. The second is in the arm pit cavity, and the third is the radial nerve along the forearm?

Would anyone care to expain the nerve strikes found in Eagle's Beak, and how better to activate these points? Are there complimentary nerve strikes that make these points work better? What red flags come to mind when executing this technique. Any insites or observations are welcome.

Rob,
Could you expain the Triple Warmer/Heater a bit.

Eagles Beak again.

Eagles Beak​

1. Our left hand traps and pins the opponents hand to our right shoulder.
2. Step with your left foot away from the opponent into a horse (Straightens the attackers arm).
3. Deliver a verticle middle knuckle strike (thrown like an uppercut) to the nerve between the bicep/tricep.
4. Drive a straight middle knuckle into the opponents arm pit.

After the middle knuckle strike to the armpit.

5. Circle your right arm downward, out, and over the top of your opponents trapped arm.
6. Drop your forearm across his bicep (same motion as a downward verticle hammer fist).
7. On contact with his bicep rake your forearm inward and downward toward your chest.
8. Rebound off your opponents arm with a right sword hand to the side of his throat.

Any comments on execution and what makes a difficult opponent comply are very welcome indeed.

Those familiar with the Dillman and pressure points, know about 12 meridians. Triple heater/warmer is one of these meridians. The point under the bicep is called Triple Warmer 12. It used in conjunction with other points can have varied effects from shutting down to the arm to knock outs.

Thanks,

You know this to be true, young Jedi. It is also pointless to resist. The Goldendragon cannot save you now. Come, it is the only way. :borg:

Thanks Jason. The site has alot of good information.

I am wondering if there are notible differences on how the Chinese and Japanese arts approach the use of pressure points? It is a goal of mine to incorporate pressure points into my training. I do think understanding the strikes gives confidence to the why's of techniques.

When I first started Kenpo I was always thinking why build a tech in this order, why strike a point this way, why use this weapon... wouldn't another be more practical?

Alot to say, but I'll keep it general.(To avoid stirring up the hornets nest)

A large, and old established organization. Controversial to many, but being it was based on the teachings of SGM Parker,(who started it all in the USA) and carried forward by Al Tracy, it remains a strong system.

When it comes to Kenpo, you will not find a more controversial subject on this forum(IMHO), much of it centered on recent past. But as an old former NFL coach once said, "The future is now." So that is what I focus on, teaching the system to keep it going, pushing for higher goals, and the responsibility I have toward my students. :asian:

Not to worry my Queen, your position is safe. I knew you would reappear. Everything is falling into place as I have forseen. :samurai:

It would be Kimono Grab. It represents what Kenpo is all about, fluidity, power, physical principles, and pain to the one who would violate another. :asian:
