                                THE FOUR RANGES OF COMBAT                                                     
                          KICKING, BOXING, TRAPPING , AND GRAPPLING
KICKING RANGE
All most all altercations start at a distance. we consider that kicking range or probing, in this range you can deliver strong powerful kicks, TAE-KWON-DO, MUAY THAI, SAVATE, KUNG-FU.In that range your kicks can go low line, which means kicks to the legs or high line which means rib high or head high. If you are not much for kicking, then the probing kicks are for you ! ! Meaning your kicks will be low to the legs but just to set you up for your hands. So you can box.

BOXING RANGE
In this range you will use boxing techniques to facilitate close quarter combat such as JABS, HOOKS ,UPPER CUTS, CROSSES, ...Now you can also use MUAY THAI  ELBOW STRIKES, KNEE STRIKES. Which brings us to the TRAPPING RANGE

In CLOSE QUARTER COMBAT a lot of people think all you can do is PUNCH ! ! BOY ARE THEY WRONG ! !  IF YOU HAVE BEEN PAY ATTENNTIION, HAVE YOU NOTICES THE TRANSITION BETWEEN THE RANGES OF COMBAT. How fluid the changes are, that is so IMPORTANT. Now in the trapping range the transition to AIKIDO, JUDO, CHINESE FAST WRESTLING is smooth.
