I know, kickboxing karate doesn't really exist, but it does make a fine translation of arts. When you shift from karate to kickboxing, or shift from kickboxing back to karate, you can win every single contest you are in by knowing the three things I am going to tell you in this article. We are dealing only with the fists, mind you, so you have to control the distance to make sure that you stay at a distance that is comfortable for you to punch at.

If you are going to try to use this data with kicks we would have to set up an art called karate tae kwon do...grin. Or, if you were going to use it with fancy hand traps we might call it shaolin kickboxing. Call it what you will, the techniques will work, but you might have to make some changes.

Before we get into the techniques I should tell you how to set them up. You want to stand with the hands extended, elbows about 135 degrees, palms facing outward, so that the hands are in front of the shoulders. This, incidentally, is an 'I don't want to fight' sign, which is a good thing because it is better to avoid a fight.

The basic concept here is that two objects can't be in the same place in space. Go on, shove one table through another table. You'll just end up with fire wood.

First Technique, he is going to have to go around your fist and arms, and you can defend with a hard block and punch. This isn't a counter strike, this is done simultaneous with a slight body shift/sidestep maneuver. You will have taken the initiative of the fight and can follow up with an attack on the inside line.

Second technique, he is going to try shifting to the front of your hands and leading with a jab, and you can just let him pass and punch on his body as you wish. With either of these two movements your opponent is trying to go around you, and this will set him up by shutting his weapons down, or opening targets up for you to hit. Either way, yo're going to have the advantage.

Third technique, and this is the one we want, is when he tries to go between your hands. He can be blocked easily, and, the potential for trapping him, simply by closing your hands, is large. You trap his elbow and his wrist and work an arm bar, and when he tries to back out, or otherwise wiggle, you elbow roll him, and you can work elbow spikes and secondary punches, all while keeping him trapped and unable to fight back.

This fighting technique can further be improved by shifting the body or changing the distance between your palms, thus encouraging your attacker to do exactly what you want. In other words, you will have created the path of his entry, and nobody is easier to beat than a fighter who is predictable. So, there you go, that is how you actually apply matrixing concepts to the first moves of a fight, and when you win that battle just tell everybody you study kickboxing karate...heh.
