How to Escape From a Kung Fu Rear Bear Hug

Hi my name is Dan Schmidt from the Chinese Martial Arts Center and for expertvillage.com. In this clip we are going to be showing you self defense against the rear bear hug. So anytime somebody comes behind you and just wraps there arms around you really tight okay sometimes it is to the point were you could barely breath the first thing you want to do is you want to step out and push your elbows out. This has to be done at the same time. So in a fast action it would be here here this way. Okay and from here grab the hand okay see now I'm open in this area from here you could elbow straight to the solar flexes which cause him to lean forward. You could smash to the groan and from there you could just grab the other arm, put your hand behind them and you sweep your front leg and they would go flat on there face. So once again when he grabs just step out, elbow, hit the groan, come around, sweep. Lets break down again so he grabs, step out, swing the arms around grab the hand, elbow straight to the solar flexes, use the same fist hit to the groan, and from here just wrap the arm around, put a little bit weight on this leg and sweep straight forward. That is self defense against the rear bear hug.
