Raise your arms. [He waits until Senri lifts them, and he curls his hands around the forearms near the wrists.] Don't ball your fists when guarding. [He positions the arms tucked somewhat close, up high enough to guard the head and neck.]

Protect your head and neck always. Use your elbows. [He moves Senri's arms, down, out, blocking with the forearms, blocking with the elbows.] It doesn't matter how big or little you are. It doesn't matter how much muscle you have.

Fighting is about momentum. [He pulls Senri's hands down lower then steps back and in front, straight, standing.] Don't punch with your arm, punch with your hips. Step forward and turn.

Punch me in the stomach. Turn your fist over and curl it upward. [He points up toward his face.] Keep your eyes on me, not where you're punching. Punch through me, not at me.
