Counter the counters of your technique

[YouKnowWho]

For every technique that you train, you should also train how to:

- counter that technique.
- counter the counters of that technique.

Unless you know how to counter the counters of your technique, you should be careful when you apply your technique. The reason is simple, you don't want to put yourself in a situation that you don't know how to handle.

What will you do when you throw a high kick, your opponent just uses his arms to cover his head and run toward you like a mad man? If you don't have the counter for it, will you even try to use your "high kick"?

Do you always think about 2 steps ahead? When you attack,

- how will your opponent respond (1 step ahead),
- how will you respond to your opponent's respond (2 steps ahead)?

Praying Mantis combinations are all about drawing the opponent's response to set up your follow up response.

Rather than pre-determining what to do,one should be able to response anything anytime,i mean one must react naturally without thinking.Its ok if we have planned a counter aganist his counter,but then why dont we plan another counter for further counters.

3 things

1 if you do not know what to do, keep the distance. you move a step back, to the side or run.

2 to counter, you take away one thing that make techniques not working.

3 drill combo, we will not land our first strike or offense without the opponent countering.

We drill 1-2-3 or multiple strikes or offenses.
