ABC- An ABC is an Attack By Combination. It is, as it sounds, an attack that utilizes a series of strikes together as one. They are designed to overload the opposition with a few, or possibly several, strikes to fend off. ABCs can be combinations involving hands, feet, or the two together. Examples of ABCs: 1) A straight lead to the head, a cross to the body and a hook to head. 2) A Side kick to the knee, a straight lead to thee head, then a hook to the head. 3) A straight lead to the head, a hook kick to the groin, followed by another straight. The amount of possible combinations is endless. With practice on your own, you will find the combos that flow best for you. PIA- PIA or Progressive Indirect Attack is the preferred method for a JKD man. It is an attack that is planned from start to finish. Both Feints and fakes are used along with real strikes to set up your final blow. Unlike an SDA, which is thrown directly towards the desired target, with a PIA you may throw a fake, feint, or a real attack, towards another target, drawing their attention to that attack. When they respond, it will open the target you originally intended to hit. Planning a PIA, you will chose a striking point and progressively work your way in. Examples of PIAs: 1) Throw a fake low punch to the stomach. When they drop their hand to block, strike to the face. 2) You notice your opponent drops his hands when you attack low, and raises both when you attack high. Lead with a low kick to the groin. When they block it, follow with a lead to the head. If they block that too, throw another kick to the groin while their hands are covering their face. 3) For someone who backs away frequently; Throw a Straight lead as a feint, when they step back, Double up on the lead,
