About
Lethwei Bando
The term "Bando" is a combination, composed from the Burmese words "Ban" and the Japanese term (suffix) "do"; it is generally held to have three primary meanings. Bando schools Very in their methods but they all adhere to teaching first the foothold and basic postures. Next, blocking and parrying forms are taught (there are at-least nine major ones.) Finally offensive techniques are passed to the students with the injunction to use care. Bando stresses an initial withdrawals, attach from outside the opponents arms and much open hand work to the body.
The parts of body as elbow, hip, head, shoulder, foot and knees are all employed in fighting which favors close quarters. For this a 'midget punch' has been developed. Grapping and locking techniques follow the initial strikes. Kicking usually is of the free rather than snap type and is economical and effective. Techniques are learned through forms, then with a partner of partners and finally used in contests.
