1a-b-c)

Transition / Parry / Hammer-fist with Grab

Coordination

•

Improper strike / foot maneuver timing

-

Hammer-fist and grab should be executed to conclude simultaneously with settle into stance

Execution - Execution Angle

•

Improper strike angle

-

Hammer-fist should not cross center-line and complete relatively perpendicular to body and horizontal to ground

•

Improper grab angle

-

grabbing hand / arm should complete vertically (anchored elbow) and relatively parallel in-front of body (at shoulder width)

Execution - Alignment

•

Improper stance

-

Maneuver should conclude into offset horse (not neutral bow)

Execution - Economy

•

Improper start positioning

-

Maneuver should begin at conclusion of prior maneuvering without repositioning into current maneuver execution

•

Improper (defensive) path of travel

-

Rear hand should start parry with front hand following behind - creating a horizontal figure 8 pattern that is relatively parallel to body with a height of hip to shoulder (or face)

2)

Sweep

Coordination

•

Improper hand / foot maneuver timing

-

Upper and lower body maneuvering should be executed to conclude simultaneously with each other

Execution - Execution Angle

•

Improper step (sweep) angle

-

Repositioned foot should be placed onto right flank line (3:00-900)

(remaining stance shifts will then have proper execution angles without further foot adjustments)

Execution - Alignment

•

Lean of stance (sideways)

-

Back should be kept relatively perpendicular to the ground upon completion of maneuver

•

Improper (final) positioning (upper body)

-

The upper body maneuvers should conclude into a cup and saucer position (not into a claw to face positioning)

Execution - Economy

•

Improper (offensive) path of travel

-

Lead hand should follow a circular path of travel from hip to face and back to hip height that is relatively parallel to and in-front-of body

3)

Unwind with Back-knuckle

Coordination

•

Improper strike timing (executed as isolated maneuver)

-

The strike should be timed to be aided by the stance rotation (with momentum of rotation continuing to aid following maneuver)

Execution - Alignment

•

Lean of stance (sideways)

-

Back should be kept relatively perpendicular to the ground upon completion of maneuver

Execution - Execution Angle

•

Improper execution height

-

The strike should be executed to rib height

4a-b)

Straight Punch

Coordination

•

Improper punch / foot maneuver timing

-

Punch and retraction of hand execution should be timed to conclude with the settle into the forward bow stance, resulting in all movement stopping simultaneously

Execution - Execution Angle

•

Improper step angle

-

Repositioned foot should be placed onto right flank line (3:00-900)

•

Improper execution angle

-

The strike should be executed to a slightly downward angle (and on top of and perpendicular to the checking arm)

•

Improper retraction angle

-

Retraction should be linear and begin at conclusion of prior maneuver strike (not allowed to continue on circular path of travel)

Execution - Alignment

•

Lean of stance (forward)

-

Back should be kept relatively perpendicular to the ground upon completion of maneuver

•

Improper stance

-

Maneuver should conclude directly into forward bow stance (not into neutral bow that then shifts into forward bow)
