Welcome to another Jeet Kune Do video trapping technique. Today I'm going to
show you the Lap Sao which is the pulling hand. Now in the other videos I
show you the Pak Sao which is slapping hand. What's the difference between the
two? You also see it in Bruce Lee's movie. Now however just because Bruce does it
in a movie doesn't mean that's how you should do it. Not necessarily.
Experiment with it. So we have the Pak Sao which is slapping hand. Now the Lap
Sao which is pulling hand it's a pulling motion obviously. It's
when the opponent is feeding you a forward pressure energy. Instead of
fighting it I try to do Pak Sao. Give me full force. See it's very hard but
instead he gives me energy it's much easier if I redirect it. Now
the key with the whole thing is you're not pulling with your arm. Because if I --
look at the muscle if I try to pull it with my arm
Shin -- see it doesn't work. Now so you want to pull into your body your
elbow and then you're turning. So I'm not just doing this -- this is nice but I'm
using my body. See that. So it's like this in the same time this punch through
right. So it's this kind of motion right. So it's shoot right -- this is coming it's
like a two train hitting together. Not just one type boom right there right that's
how it works. One more time - or you can see the the power of that like your turn
my body I turn my body. Wrong wrong right right. Now Shin try to move. See right
that's what I'm talking about. That's what you want from here. I'm controlling
right I'm controlling right. So from here now one problem with it is if once I do
Lap Sao and a lot of guys "Oh a Lap Sao" you don't want the Lap Sao and
you stay here I'm looking at you she's looking at me because it means he can
hit me then I can hit him at the same time okay.
Shin try a Lap Sao and then punch at same time. See
that boom. Not good okay not good. What you want is
you want to make him off balance. Make him off balance see that. Now this is all
open and that's what you do. So from here we did a Pak Sao now here's the thing
footwork wise turn your body makes sure you turn your body. I personally don't like
it this way cause you get hit, I get hit. Make sure he's off balance but ideally
it's actually much better when -- I with the opposite stance. So let's say Shin
takes a left stance. This I would do all day long. I'm pulling from here because
this I'm safe look at the hand that is far away right and if I pull and also I
have more my bone mechanic. Right see the power right. So from here and if I'm
good this -- boom and this is all open, this is all -- this is all open right this is all
open. So I like to Lap Sao this way. Now so when you practice as a drill so
Shin you do a couple -- do a Lap Sao. See awesome nice power see -- try again.
Boom. See -- it shouldn't be -- not don't do too much power stay the same time.
See this is no good. This is very bad habit you see a lot of
Wing Chun guys to do this all fucking day long. Okay try again boom -- see that? So
right right right side to the right side and you can practice. Left side, right side
right. So this way so Shin you can try Lap Sao I'll do the left side. Right so here
see that pull -- actually this way okay this way.
Awesome try again see right there. Try again. You can see the power -- that motion.
Yeah if you practice this enough on the wooden dummy -- you see the wooden dummy
you can move the dummy --you can move a person. Very very powerful right you can
move the wrist from here once you pull it off the dummy stance is all good
right from here. All right when he is here this is all done and usually you
can hit here and from here chop to the neck and usually from here it's like
that right. And you can feel that a big chest but you can feel. But that's to the
neck right. That's like 30% power we really get from here you turn and you go
boom and you send a guy flying. And that's what you don't see it oh what the hell
are you hitting the wooden dummy like that. Feel it you know what I mean so
that's the Lap Sao drill hope you enjoyed this video you enjoyed this
