Defending Against a Double Wrist Grab
Shihan Michael Pace
How defend against and release a Double Wrist Grab.
- The double wrist attack is when your opponent grabs each of your wrists with each of his hands. This defense differs from the previous ones in that we will be moving toward our attacker while making the release as opposed to pulling back.
- First clasp your hands together in a similar fashion as in the two on one attack. Be sure not to interlock the fingers.
- Step directly between your attackers feet. Drive your elbows in and up as if to strike him under the chin. Your object is to release, not to actually strike him with your elbows but the motion is the same.
- Make sure that you are driving in, actually pushing him backward. The follow up from here can be the same as from the other wrist releases but eliminating the first back fist strike. Go right into the palm heel, knee kicks, and elbows, if necessary.
