Head Movement Drills!

May 17
1 min read

Most fighters practice offense…

Very few know how to DEFEND properly. 🥊

In this video, I teach you a head movement drill that helps you defend 4 different punches using 4 different defensive reactions.

Here’s the sequence:
✔ Catch the jab
✔ Shoulder roll the right hand
✔ Roll under the hook
✔ Bend at the waist and smother the right hand

This drill teaches:
• Head movement
• Defensive awareness
• Timing
• Rhythm
• How to stay relaxed under pressure

I break down each punch and each defensive movement step-by-step so you understand WHY it works—not just what to do.

Good defense creates great offense.
