In any sport there are some fundamental mechanics and techniques that are pretty much universal. Like the pivot in your lead foot on a lead hook or the snap of your wrist in a jump shot in basketball.


Sometimes a coach/trainer/teacher can get fixated on small details or even be too stubborn to realize the exact way they do something is not the only way. When this happens it can limit the athlete to opening up and learning there own style.


Outside of a lot of basic techniques and mechanics a fighter should learn, they have to learn their own style.
