The 'Shocker Technique' First let me explain exactly what the shocker technique is. Let's suppose you are attacked from the front by either a single of double collar grab, a front choke, a bear hug with your arms free or something similar. We teach our students to take on a submissive posture with these type of attacks by bringing both hands up, open and with the palms out. This submissive stance lets your attacker think you are terrified (hey you might be) and gives him an air of confidence, not thinking you will resist. In essence it disguises your technique by allowing you to get your hands in position without alarming your attacker. Now for the Shocker Technique. While your hands are up you will quickly strike the area of the forehead and brow on both sides simultaneously with a strong double slap. The direction of the attack should be in and down. This activates a very strong shock wave that rattles the brain and causes your attacker to stop in his tracks. Sort of momentary knockout if you will. This gives you time to follow up with elbows, head butts and knee attacks or perhaps just to run to safety. When we tried this at my school I had my students wear sparring head gear and we started off with very little power. As we increased the power with each 'shock attack' we quickly came to a point where the students would feel as they described it, "a painful weakness that rocked and stunned them". Mind you now, we were still hitting fairly softly (maybe 20-25% power) and they had head gear on! They told me there was no question that even with the minimum power we were using, without headgear they would have been either knocked unconscious or unable to stand. DISCLAIMER: Using this technique on someone could cause serious injury, even in practice. We take no responsibility should you decide to try this.
