Datum-Setting and Limb-Clearance Pad Drill

Footage from a dojo session where we covered a basic pad drill. The drill gives examples of the two roles of the non-striking hand in kata / close-range combat: 1) To locate the target utilising proprioception i.e. “datum setting”. 2) To clear the path for the strike i.e. “limb-clearance”.

All the best,

Iain
