First Person

Point of Reference (fixed): rear flank (4;30 / 7:30)

Focal Point (fluid - primary): front flanks (1;30 / 10:30)

it demonstrates a shift of (fixed) Focal Point 45-degrees (to front flank) (4:30) and 90-degrees (to flank) (7:30)

it demonstrates a shift of (fluid) Focal Point 45-degrees (to front flank) (1:30) and 90-degrees (to flank) (9:00)

it demonstrates a shift in Focal Point without a (lateral) shift in stance (only depth)

it demonstrates both sides of a self-defense technique

it demonstrates a maintained offset point of reference (front flank) (45-degrees)

it demonstrates redirecting an in-flight aggression (with an offensive maneuver)

it demonstrates defense (block) with a single (open) upper limb (hand)

it demonstrates offense with singular, triple, and double weapons (closed-open weapons)

it demonstrates striking with both upper and lower limbs

it demonstrates frictional pull (with and upper limb)

it demonstrates Purposeful Deflection with Purposeful Aggression

it demonstrates a foot maneuver using (depth) distance without rotation
