Ah...if it was only yourself, I could certainly offer assistance with lessons and similar?

But I am not a teacher, I cannot teach an entire class I do not think...

Fighting is more than merely punches though!!

I know how to fight no problem!
It's other people I'm worried about
And I'm not really a good teacher either haha

Oh! Tell me more, Sensei!
What else is there?

[betheman]

Oh!! Well that's good then...

Ah. Well, punching is a good basic move...but not everything you face will be something you can overpower. Actually, a lot will not! It is important to use their power against them, because of this! So throws, or particularly directed strikes...

These are key!

So like throwing them into a wall? Like in the movies?
Wouldn't you have to be really strong to do that?

[betheman]

No, no!

Simply 'throwing'...more accurately, it is redirecting their movements, so that they trip over themselves, or flip onto their back, depending.

What you are doing, is using the momentum of their strike! By doing this, you can take down those who are far far larger and stronger than you!

So redirecting their movements so they crash into a wall
Or flip into a wall

[ Yeah she's messing with you, Gon. ]

Then it's more about brains than brawn. Outwitting them and using their size against them?
Does it work when you're much smaller than your opponent?

[betheman]

[Hey....]

Perhaps a demonstration is better...

Auh! It does, however...at least to a point.

In general, if you can apply just enough force to a certain point...or even act as a 'counter weight' there, it will work!
