Stage III. Working against strikes
Special methods that are used to develop skills of
self-defense against any kinds of kicks and blows
The way of forming the stiffness when the energy of the strike is
transmitted through the surfaces of a strike is another peculiarity
of the striking technique of the Kadochnikoff System. The
stiffness in the point of contact is achieved not by the straining or
fixing the part of the body that perform a strike (it’s a distinctive
feature for the striking technique in many eastern martial arts,
where the strain in the punch or arm arises immediately before
the strike), but by the switching off of the degrees of freedom of
joints by twisting in the joint connections. The initial impulse
may be formed by the movements of the pelvis, torso, or other
parts of the body which are made in case of protecting against
the opponent’s strikes, of moving away from the plane of the
strike or in case of finishing the previous attack.
