Clarification:

Some maneuvers of this technique are referred to as transitory. This is to call out the fact that although they are individual maneuvers unto themselves (i.e. not mumbled together), they are simultaneously also part of a larger, relatively sustained, flow of movement.

Visualization:

The following sequence (1a-1e) should create a large, horizontally rotated, figure 8, bent at 90-degrees in the middle, with the side-to-side portion (left arm - parallel in front of your body) on a right to left (counter-clockwise vertically) circle (right-front-flank to left-rear-flank), and the front-to-back portion (right arm - parallel the right side of your body) on a front to rear (clockwise vertically) circle (left-front-flank to right-rear-flank).

1a)

Direct your attention 135-degrees (counter-clockwise horizontally) to your left (toward left-front-flank) as you left step forward (toward left-front-flank) into a left, transitory, neutral bow facing forward (toward left-front-flank), simultaneously with the drop (toward down) of both your arms (left on top of right) in front of (toward right-front-flank) your hip area, relatively parallel to the floor (on a left-front-flank to right-rear-flank line) such that both palms point upward (toward up), and yet still maintain contact with each other (now across the entire length of the forearms), in preparation for the next maneuver.

Variation:

With the drop of your arms in the previous maneuver (1a), you may also open up your left hand in preparation for a future maneuver (1c).

Visualization:

The right arm of the previous maneuver (1a) now begins to travel on the front to back portion of the figure 8 (clockwise vertically).

1b)

Without any loss of momentum, continue to shift (counter-clockwise horizontally) forward into a left forward bow facing forward (toward left-front-flank) with the execution of a right, thrusting, open-handed, transitory, upward block (toward upper-left-front-flank), while the left arm maintains its same position relative to your body (body fusion), palm pointing upward (toward up).

Visualization:

The right arm of the previous maneuver (1b) continues to travel on the front to back portions of the figure 8 (clockwise vertically).

1c)

Continuing without any loss of momentum, reverse the rotation of your stance (clockwise horizontally) into a left, offset, transitory, fighting horse facing forward (toward left-rear-flank) as you (vertically) circle your right arm backward (toward upper-right-rear-flank) simultaneously with a left, thrusting, transitory, outward, heel-palm claw toward your left (toward upper-left-front-flank), palm pointing forward (toward left-front-flank) and fingers (not tips) pointing to the right (toward right-front-flank).

Visualization:

The left arm of the previous maneuver (1c) now begins to travel on the side-to-side portion of the figure 8 (counter-clockwise vertically), while the right arm (1c) continues to travel on the front to back portion of the figure 8 (clockwise vertically),

1d)

Continuing without any loss of momentum, further rotate (clockwise horizontally) your stance into a left, transitory, reverse bow, in preparation for the next maneuver sequence.

Visualization:

Both left arm and right arms of the previous maneuver (1d) continue to travel on their respective paths of travel.

1e)

Continuing without any loss of momentum, and as the right arm reaches the point where it is relatively parallel with the floor, reverse the rotational shift of your stance (counter-clockwise horizontally) into a left, transitory, forward bow facing forward (toward left-front-flank) with a right, thrusting, forward, underhand, heel-palm, palm pointing forward (toward left-front-flank) and fingers pointing downward (toward down), while simultaneously allowing the continued rotation (counter-clockwise vertically) of you left hand to impact with your right inner forearm area, palm pointing to your right (toward right-rear-flank) and fingers pointing to your right (toward lower-right-front-flank), in preparation for the next maneuver. Simultaneously with the above maneuvers, slightly bow your head forward (toward lower-left-front-flank) such that the top of your head points diagonally-upward (toward upper-left-front-flank), as you continue to maintain your gaze (and attention) forward (toward left-front-flank).

Elaboration:

The collision of your left hand with your right forearm of the previous maneuver (1e) should be timed to occur at the end of the striking contact of the maneuver and not impede on its effectiveness. Rather, the intention of this maneuver is to borrow some of the residual force (borrowed force) of the strike (rebounding) to improve the effectiveness of the next maneuver (2).

Interpretation:

The bowing of the head recognizes that the previous maneuver (1e) may cause the visualized opponent to bend forward, thus causing an inadvertent head-butt to your facial area.

2)

Immediately, close your right hand, palm forward (toward left-front-flank), and retract (toward right-rear-flank) your right arm to a chambered position, palm pointing upward (toward up), with a left push-drag forward (toward left-front-flank) as you again reverse the rotational shift of your stance (clockwise horizontally) into a left neutral bow facing forward (toward left-front-flank) with a left, snapping, forward and diagonally-upward, outward, back-knuckle (toward upper-left-front-flank), palm pointing to your right (toward lower-right-flank) and knuckles pointing forward (toward upper-left-front-flank).

Variation:

Some may consider the push-drag to be optional.

Elaboration:

The closing of the right hand of the previous maneuver (2) should be done first to simulate the grabbing and squeezing of the testicles, while also timed in concert with the back-knuckle to create opposing forces (left push - right pull).

Clarification:

The snapping method of execution of the back-knuckle of the previous maneuver (2) is specifically chosen so that the next maneuver can take advantage of the retraction of the left hand.
