FunFriday – Master Ken teaches Ameri-Do-Te pressure point attacks!

Legends of pressure point strikes go all the way back to the most ancient martial arts, but many today are skeptical of such method of combat. Narrowing one’s offense or defense in a fight to a single, pinpoint area of the body is widely regarded as a laughably absurd combat strategy. Additionally, the very notion that certain area of the body are vulnerable to the point that a well-placed strike can completely incapacitate or even kill the opponent seems ridiculous at best to the general public.

As with all things in martial arts, many of these same people are simply astonished to discover just how true the legend of pressure point strikes are, and how effective they are as a weapon for actual combat. A well-placed strike to a vulnerable pressure point is among the most powerful (and easily concealed) weapons to have in one’s martial arts arsenal, and the greater one’s knowledge of pressure points, the less wise it becomes to assault him or her.

Master Ken, founder of the world’s most invincible fighting style, Ameri-Do-Te, knows the science and efficacy of pressure points strikes well. From the moment the first tie a white belt around their waist and enter the dojo, all Ameri-Do-Te students are trained to become formidable and consummate masters in the art of pressure point fighting.

Sure, there will always be a skeptic or two, but Master Ken and his Ameri-Do-Te disciples are always prepared to back up the true power of their martial art. And like all things in Ameri-Do-Te, Master Ken has found a new, creative use for pressure point attacks not found in any other martial art!
