Karate is wrestling- upward block: an amazing grappling technique! age-uke bunkai
The age-uke, upward block, ot rising block is one of the first techniques taught in all karate forms as well as karate-based Korean martial arts like taekwondo and tang soo do… and yet almost nobody has a good explanation of how to use this technique in a fight (at least an explanation that isn’t ridiculous).
But here it is: the way I use the rising block for MMA, wrestling, and submission grappling. But wait! There’s more! While filming this video, I learned several more practical applications for the upward block. It’s a much, much better technique than I previously thought.
