Karate | Okinawan karate | uke waza | singular strike take over drill

A basic takeover drill that is practised as a kumite form within the MMF training. It consists of a single predetermined attack answered with a single predetermined defense technique, after which the defender (uke) takes over the role of attacker (semete) and the attacker takes over the role of the defender. In this short video example you can see three separate basic acquisitions that ultimately merge less predictably. The way of these types of exercises is done in a more natural way of moving without fixing and locking the body movement.
