Jab - lead teep - jab.

Long lazy jab into left frame, slide into left step in elbow.
Inside lowkick to break balance. Three punch combo.

Probably got other names as well. Can be used both as a block, or a feel out probe.
I never train combos anymore. I guess they are good for beginners to learn how to flow between strikes.
I don't teach combos either. I teach what I like to think of as cognitive training. Having a pad holder flash the pad and you strike it. Not saying kick, just holding for a kick and waiting for the striker to react unrushed. That way it is a visual reaction and not an auditory reaction. It's a slower process for sure, but in the long run, I think it makes better fighters.
