Trapping Training Aids

Trapping Training

1. Trapping is trained from the nucleus outwards. By nucleus we mean from trapping range with touch. As a student becomes more proficient the distance is increased to punching range. Then to bridging from kicking range, to punching range, to trapping range. Then trapping should be combined with other fighting methods, i.e., boxing, wrestling, Muay Thai, etc. The reason for this progression is that most fights end up in close range very quickly.
2. Trapping should also be trained with boxing gloves [or any other gloves] while sparring.
3. Work on trapping with your eyes shut to increase sensitivity and awareness.

Final Notes on Trapping

1. One must be able to shift from hand immobilization attack into other forms of attack and vice versa should the situation arise.
2. One should also be able to flow into trapping from any other form of attack.

You could also apply Foot Immobilization Attacks by:

1. Stepping on it.
2. Locking the leg.
