There’s a fair amount of work to be done for most of us to discover natural rhythm in optimizing our speed, power, and balance as a trifecta of performance in self-defense.
Once mastered, the concept of breaking rhythm to create confusion in our antagonist and the possibility of an “unguarded target” is a logical and powerful next step. In the video below, I’ll show you how with a basic example. Check it out!

Great video! Can really feel the difference when focusing on dropping the lead shoulder. What’s the timing goal when launching the second combative from the same side? Half-beat? Quarter-beat?

Curtis…thank you. See if you can counterpunch on the half beat; that rhythm should lend itself to an unguarded target for the punch…
