VIDEO TRANSCRIPT:
Willie Laureano:
You can’t take this away because this is the real part. This is part of the real part. Okay. Because if I simply stop here and he puts his hands over there, that’s bullshit. If I go here, he puts his hands over there, that’s bullshit. But if I go like this, notice he got me, but I still got him. But that’s a great experience for him, why? I didn’t get him completely.
All I want you to do is squat. Okay?
Ah, not bad. Notice the difference?
Student:
Yes.
Willie Laureano:
Why? Because you put your weight on top of me.
Student:
Yeah, Okay. Rather than-
Willie Laureano:
That’s the difference. Rather than allowing me to get in, because you don’t know how fast I’m coming in.
Student:
Yeah.
Willie Laureano:
Because if you back away, you might’ve just simply allowed me in.
Student:
Okay.
Willie Laureano:
You see what I mean? See? Okay. All right. Okay. See what I mean?
Boom, she sliced again. Notice I’m bobbing and weaving. You see that? Go ahead, Alex. Okay. See, I’m going. See that? So literally bobbing and weaving.
You’re going pop, like that. So deliver it. See, I’m right here, there’s a hand there, that’s why you’re hitting here, before that hand happens. But if he did throw it, basically that hook became this. It kind of has a dual purpose to it. Make sense?
Again, he doesn’t have to be fast, so you go boom, cut, you go here, a cut, you see? So you notice, before he even comes back I’m already there.
Student:
I’ve already got one clock.
Willie Laureano:
Right. Or go super slow for me. If I go here, boom, and then he comes back with that, you see, you see what’s happening? See this? See what’s happening, whoom, boom, boom.
Student:
Back side?
Willie Laureano:
Yeah, pretty much the same thing. See I’m going here, right. So what’s happening? Go ahead. See. You see?
Student:
You’re already getting him.
Willie Laureano:
This, just basically by it coming there, you can make a transition to something else. That’s the adaptive perspective of what we do.
Student:
Yes, sir.
Willie Laureano:
Okay.
See what’s happening? You feel that Glenn? You feel that energy?
Student:
Oh, yeah.
Willie Laureano:
Right? And where is it taking you? It’s like, Oh shit. It’s making you go where I want you to go. Right? Okay. And I like, because you did continue the energy. Oh, he knows how to stab people.
