Jodan Age Uke
Jodan Uke is a basic, effective, and fundamental block in Traditional Karate. This block starts by having your fist by your side then it travels all the way up to have your arm in front of your forehead, your forearm has to go the middle and then going up. This block is for high attacks such as punches, overhead punches, strikes, and even against weapons.
Recommendations
