Rhythm Step 101 - Elite Footwork for Combat Sports with Barry Robinson

Barry Robinson is widely regarded as one of the highest level and most uniquely talented/experienced boxing for combat sports coaches in the world today.  Founder of his own systemised approach to coaching, a million styles boxing (AMSB), he has won fans globally for many years through his unparalleled ability in teaching athletes from any martial art how to train in order to develop world level boxing.  

The Rhythm step is a term he has specifically coined when talking about unconscious footwork patterns that lead to being out of stance, base or balance at any point during training or competition.  Developing elite footwork for combat sports therefore requires an athlete to not only be conscious of what they should be doing, but also what they should not.

Barry has worked on fight camps with some of the world's best fighters from a whole range of different martial arts/combat sports including the likes of Fedor Emileanenko, Jose Aldo, Cris Cyborg, Sitthichai Sitsongpeenong, Artur Kyshenko and many, many more. Alongside his fight preparation and coaching, he is also truly outstanding at film study and fight/fighter breakdowns.  

This combination of skills puts him in demand the world over to take part in the training of champion athletes from Boxing, MMA, Muay Thai and Kickboxing.      

Here, in the first of a completely new series for the Warrior Collective, he has filmed his next level systems of training for those wanting to understand the rhythm step and how to develop elite footwork for combat sports
