One question. Where is that first Shuto striking to be most effective?
JJ: You want to hit at the base of the skull/top of the neck for the best reaction. Anything below that is good too, even in the back, just not above. The skull isn’t a forgiving target! Remember to lead with the elbow, not the hand, to ensure a straight-line strike. Good question, thanks for asking!
