"On behalf of Expert Village I'm Sifu Dwight Woods of Unified Martial Art Academy in Miami, Florida and today we are going to be talking about beginners jeet kune do. Okay so just as we where talking about the mechanics for the hook punch I could instead of hitting with the fist I could end up hitting with the elbow and it would be essentially the same mechanics. So here is the hook punch but here is how it would look if I where to hit with the elbow instead. Hook, punch but here is the lead elbow so in real time it would be in real time. Just snap the body so that the hip and the leg and the hip do the work and that results in a pretty powerful technique and one more time and one more time. So again it relates to mechanics not necessarily techniques. If I can hit this way with the fist I can hit on that same horizontals line with the elbow instead."
