What’s your stance on pressure point fighting and board breaking?
We’ve all read about or studied under George Dillman etc,
But do you really think that in real self-defence situations it can be achieved,
regarding focusing power,and actual pin point accuracy of pressure points
I realise I’ll probably be ruffling some feathers in the Korean Systems besides others.
I’ve noticed that during demonstrations of board breaking
Most students usually take about 30secs to focus/prepare before striking and breaking the board successfully, this is supposed to be as far as I’m led to believe be a demonstration of power and what can be achieved if needed to be used in self defence.
Real self defence is achieved second by second during a real fight and does not necessary last any great length of time as to allow the luxury of specific focusing
I’m not bashing pressure point fighting or board breaking.
I only wish to find out the general attitude amongst martial artists
