This is the second in a series on martial arts striking combinations used as choreography in cardio kickboxing. As said, a key difference between a trained martial artist and a streetfighter is that the martial artist reflexively hits in sequences of three or four moves. The instinctive non-thinking reaction isn’t just a one-move event, its a more effective practiced sequence of strikes. One punch or kick is easy to defend against, but three or four thrown in a row can be very difficult to deal with.

What if you are confronted by an assailant who you know is about to attack you but hasn’t yet. Let’s say the assailant is still in the “threatening mode”. Do you wait for him to attack? Well, if you follow the philosophy of a defensive art, you must wait…

If you want to survive however, you must attack first.
