Basic Blocks Karate

Wado Ryu Karate Basics?

I recently joined a Karate class and have had 2 classes. I’m in a class with varying belts, mostly early ones though, and there are about 10 people in it. So we’ve been going through punching, blocking etc. pretty quickly (though I’m sure my sensei will make sure I memorize them and won’t forget about them).

I’m just wondering if there’s a youtube video or a website that shows you all the basic…anything.

Thanks

Basic Karate Blocks
Practical Combat situation- Defense against a Right Hook?

To start off, I’m a boxing instructor at a gym, so I know the basic defense for either a right/left hook, which is basically sticking your glove to your ear to absorb the blow, or bobbing and weaving. However, I like to think in hypothetical situations concerning real life applications for fighting, so I have been thinking about how to defend against a Right Hook/Right Overhand. If you do what is taught in boxing and stick your hand next to your ear in real life with no gloves, you will break your hand.

So I came up with this combination againt a Right Hook, which is:

Karate Outward Block, Cross, Left Head Hook, Cross

Of course I wouldn’t raise my hand to the opposite ear, just raise it in that position to deflect the arm blow, like this:

So tell me, do you think this combination is good, and do you think there are limitations to it. Your input will be much appreciated. Thanks!

Block left, circle in with right elbow to face.
