At our previous tournament, one of my students was kicked rather hard and was heard to exclaim "Oh My!"

Hello Laura:

The guy must be pretty dumb if he let you kick him in the groin twice. And, to you guys here, you should never let a woman dominate you. Put your pants back on, sheesh. No wonder western civilization is crumbling.

I think when you wrote 'a woman' you really ment to write 'anyone'. I'm giving you the benefit of the doubt.

Personally, I find the most effective way to dominate a male is to take his paycheck. Nothing hurts more. LOL!

As far as kicking in the groin goes, I will kick or punch people in the groin first chance I get, if I think you pose a threat that is, or if you wanna seriously hurt me, or if I am facing 3+ attackers or something like that. It's not my fault people don't know how to defend themselves against such attacks.

And how is actually easy to kick someone in the groin? It's not easy at all if your opponent knows how to defend that area. If you don't want people to kick you in the groin, stick to ring fights and stay there, and stay out of street fights.

People should learn to defend their groin areas, just like they learn to defend other body parts. If you didn't make your effort you learn how to defend that area, it means you have an obvious weak spot, and I'll use it.

So, please forgive me if I am a bit rude, but stop acting like babies, and learn to defend yourselves, because in a real situation, or a real fight, no one gives a damn about fair or unfair - and kicking in the groin is NOT unfair, it's a valid tactic just like any other, as long as you have a good reason to kick someone down there.

Ok, over and out ^^

dont agree with kicking someone in the balls at all but also belive that any man who would go full strengh on a girl then break her nose coz she kicked him in the balls needs counciling and anger management lessons i regularly spar with women i enjoy it and appricate there skills rather than feeling the need to over power them with pure strengh neither of us could possably learn anything from that......

I think equipment needs to be worn anytime you train. At a certain level all target in training should be aimed at practiced with the appropiate equipment worn.

We train kicking and striking at weak part of the body, and grion kikcing is something that our school stress, it is a legal point in most school like ours hand, knee or foot. We don't twist he neck deeply and we don't strike against joints, we do kick/shoulder strike the bend of the knee.

At a certain point in our training I give up my body for the pee-wees, young teens and women with cup and hand pad in the croucht area. I will go down the line striking at the their head with hand gear on there job is to not get hit either sweep and stomp in the groin, punch or kick me there witn combo. They are applauded if they stun or drop me. Sounds crazy to some, several time adults and this time parents tell me that their daughter was expelled from school for fighting. Come to find out that this large 12-13 year guy grabbed her hair and pushed. Guess what happened. Yes dropped him like a rock. When his parent came to the meeting to have discipline handed out (they have a no tolarance policy everybody goes). They were embararassed that there big strong son was taken out by Minnie. Minnie was warned to not use her training unless she is in another situation like that. The teacher that was minitoring the playground was smiling at her and her parents said they don't feel she was at fault by understand the terms.

Does kicking/strikng in the grion works differently, some people have different torlance for it I've seen it drop them like a rock, I've seen them stunned for a moment. My POINT IS THATS ALL YOU NEED to continued your assault. Don't stand their admiring your work.

At our dojo we spend a lot of time grabbing, twisting, and striking near r near the crocht area of the Gi or street clothes. Others can train the way they want, when we kick to the head you learn to have a hand down there to block incoming. I thought that was how Karate works?

Harlan, you are a fiend... I bet afer you've had the paycheck you hide the TV remote and warm-up the beer!
