Foundation
- Protect yourself at all times. Stay alert. Stay ready. Never switch off.
- The jab is your key. Control distance, find range, and open doors.
- Feet before hands. Position wins fights before the punches land.
- Balance is power. Your strength comes from a solid foundation.
- Breathe with purpose. Stay calm, keep rhythm, and save your gas.
- Eyes up, mind sharp. Read the fight like a moving puzzle.
Defense
- Make them miss, make them pay. Turn defense into instant offense.
- Head movement is insurance. Slip, roll, and weave to survive.
- Keep your hands home. Protect your temple. Protect the fight.
- Know the distance. Understand when you’re safe and when you’re not.
- Block like a wall, not a sponge. Absorb nothing. Redirect everything.
- Never back up in a straight line. Pivot, angle, and stay unpredictable.
Offense
- Punch with intent. Every shot should mean something.
- Set traps. Make them walk into your plan, not theirs.
- Body first, head later. Slow the legs, take the air, then finish.
- Follow with fire. Don’t stop after one shot. Break them down.
- Precision over power. Hit the target, not just the air.
- Combo or be comboed. Build attacks like sentences that tell a story.
Mindset

Sparring & Competition
- Spar to learn, not to win. The gym is your classroom.
- Respect the gym hierarchy. Earn your place and your rounds.
- Don’t spar injured or tired. Save yourself for when it counts.
