1)

Direct your attention 90-degrees (counter-clockwise horizontally) to your left (toward right-front-flank) as you right step in front of (counter-clockwise) your left foot (toward right-rear-flank) into a horse stance facing forward (toward right-front-flank) simultaneously with a right, thrusting, straight punch (toward right-front-flank) at solar plexus height, in-sync with a left, vertical-outward block (toward right-front-flank) to face height.

Elaboration:

The foot maneuver of the right foot of the previous maneuver (1) is not a front cross-over and then rotate into a horse scenario. Instead, all rotation from the foot maneuver should be completed prior to the settling into the horse stance, with the upper body maneuvers timed to conclude with the settle into the stance.

Visualization:

The pattern of the arms for the following maneuver sequence (2-4) should approximate a horizontally oriented figure 8 pattern, laying on its side, vertically, to the left of, and parallel to the body; with the final maneuver (4) creating an orbital switch of the figure 8 that is perpendicular to the body.

2)

Rotate (clockwise horizontally) and drop (toward down) your stance into a right, modified, wide-kneel facing forward (toward right-flank) and attention to the left (toward right-front-flank) with the execution of a left, hammering, downward, hammer-fist to hip height, fist pointing toward you (toward rear) and knuckles pointing the right (toward right-flank), as you simultaneously retract (toward left-rear-flank) your right hand to a positional cover at left shoulder height, palm pointing to the left (toward right-front-flank) and fingers pointing upward (toward up).

Clarification:

The wide-kneel of the previous maneuver (2) is called modified because the stance orientation is forward (toward right-flank) but the maneuvers and attention are oriented toward the left (toward right-front-flank).

Elaboration:

The major pivot point of the right arm of the previous maneuver (2) should be the elbow, accentuated by the dropping of the stance height.

Visualization:

Both arms of the previous maneuver (2) begin to approximate the figure 8 pattern with the right arm beginning the (right) counter-clockwise section and the left arm beginning the (left) clockwise section simultaneously.

3)

Slightly rise (toward up) in your stance as you continue the rotation (clockwise vertically) of your left hand to deliver a thrusting, diagonally-upward, inward, heel-palm claw (toward right-upper-front-flank) to face height, palm pointing forward (toward right-upper-front-flank) and fingers pointing to the left (toward front), simultaneously with the continued rotation (counter-clockwise vertically) of your right hand into a positional cover at lower left rib height, palm pointing downward (toward down) and fingers pointing to the left (toward left-front-flank).

Elaboration:

The major pivot point of the left arm of the previous maneuver (3) shifts to the shoulder.

Visualization:

Both arms of the previous maneuver (3) continue to travel on the figure 8 pattern.

4)

Immediately, drop (toward down) in your stance as you continue, but switch (90-degrees clockwise horizontally), the rotation (clockwise vertically) of your left hand to deliver a hammering, forward and diagonally-downward, hand-sword (toward lower-right-front-flank) to knee height, palm pointing downward (toward down) and fingers pointing to the right (toward right-rear-flank), as you simultaneously continue the rotation (counter-clockwise vertically) of your right hand into a positional cover at left shoulder height, palm pointing forward (toward right-front-flank) and fingers pointing upward (toward up).

Elaboration:

The major pivots points of the right arm of the previous maneuver (4) shifts to both the shoulder and the elbow, accentuated by the dropping of the stance height.

Visualization:

The right arm of the previous maneuver (3) continues to travel on the initial figure 8 pattern, while the left arm (4) switches its orientation to the figure 8 pattern perpendicular to the body.

5)

Execute a left, thrusting, side kick (toward right-front-flank) as you retract your left hand (toward left-rear-flank) to a positional cover at left face height, simultaneously with the re-positioning of the right hand (toward left-rear-flank) to right rib height.

Clarification:

The method of execution of the kick of the previous maneuver (5) is considered thrusting due to the fact that the retraction is not used as part of the execution of the following maneuver sequence.

Explanation:

The following maneuver (6) is not considered part of this technique sequence, but rather a transitional maneuver.

6)

Direct your attention 90-degrees (counter-clockwise horizontally) to your left (toward front) as you retract your left foot (toward left-rear-flank) into a horse stance facing forward (toward front), simultaneously with the retraction of your right arm (toward left-rear-flank) to a modified chambered position, hand open and palm pointing upward (toward up), and the retraction of your left hand (toward left-rear-flank) on top of and perpendicular to your right hand, hand open and palm pointing downward (toward down), with arm parallel to both the body and the ground, in preparation for the next maneuver.

Clarification:

The chambered position of the previous maneuver (6) is called modified due to the fact that the hand is open rather than closed. This position is also commonly referred to as a "cup and saucer" position - with hands open.
