Teaching Steps
Steps in learning how to box.Practice does not make
perfect, perfect practice makes perfect.
1.(The Puncher) Ultimate delivery power, movement
and positing.
Proper foot and upper tarsal positioning to attain most powerful
punches with each punch and movement working in unison to flow to
the next movement. Included are head movement, weaving and foot
movement all working together so there are no wasted positions or
waste of energy this is called perpetual moving. Punches are not
just perfect with the hip and hand timing, with the whole body moving
in perfect sync creates the ultimate delivery.
Fighting on the inside with high levels of head movement being able
to feel comfortable with not getting hit when in the punching range
of your opponent. This is an awesome way of wearing out your opponent.
The reason I teach the puncher first is so that you learn how to
punch to your full bodies potential. If one moves on too quickly
bad habits appear hindering ones full perfection of the skill.
Body awareness is the key to perfection.
2.(The Boxer) The ultimate delivery and positioning
may take some time of mastering before moving to this stage (especially
if the individual has bad habits). After learning the keys to number
1. The boxing stance then is learned “different than the ultimate
delivery stance.” side to side movement and jabbing from the
outside and moving in and out of range are at this stage of boxing
mechanics.
3. “(Counter punching)” then is taught
with the delivery of the most explosive punches as one is aware
of the alterations of body language of ones opponent.
4. “(Combinations)” and feeling comfortable
when in range of the opponent. It is easy to learn how to throw
a single or even two punches at a time. It is more difficult to
learn how feel comfortable throwing combinations of four to six
explosive punches at a time when in punching range.
The general information that is here written is an
overall view of the proper way to master the art of boxing form,
but to master one punch takes much perfect body awareness and has
so many factors that it could take months of study to learn just
one movement perfectly. For those who already have unperfected mechanics
and bad habits, I suggest that closing ones eyes and moving at very
slowly rates focusing on all movement of all of the body, re-embedding
movements perfectly into ones unconscious like the Shaulin priestTo
master, helps to study from a master.
