Altone Bando Kickboxing
Description
Bando (Burmese: pronounced [bàɴdò]) is a defensive style of thaing focusing on animal-based techniques. The earliest meanings of the word were self-discipline, self-development and self-improvement. Later, it came to mean self-protection. Bando mostly follow basic instructional patterns. The art emphasizes a attack outside the opponent's reach. All parts of the body are employed in these attacks, and once the initial technique is delivered, grappling and locking techniques are used. Techniques are learned first through formal exercises in some systems and only later through sparring.
