Step 1
Maintain mental calm and situational awareness throughout the fight. This is easier said than done, but it is possible. It is important to stay calm and don't struggle too much.
-
Step 2
Make use of suppleness and leverage rather than struggling and trying to overpower your opponent.
-
Step 3
Keep a steady base and physical balance. When you are off balance you are in a weak position and are easier to attack. However, if your center of gravity is low and your base wide, you can get the leverage you need to take down a larger, stronger opponent.
-
Step 4
Find and maintain dominant body position. Dominant position is a broad category of holds and bars that a fighter must attain and hold before disarming or disabling techniques may be applied.
-
Step 5
Control distance, if your opponent wants to fight in close, keep him back. If he wants to grapple, keep him back with strikes. Make a fight happen on your terms.
-
Step 6
Be sure and aggressive about your actions. Conserve energy throughout your fight. When you act, use speed, violence and accuracy to effectively end the engagement.
