Comments:

This is just a naming adaptation for the Self-defense Techniques using the same meaning as the layman's definition. Although related to, it does not use the American Kenpo basics term for hop.

Technically, this is not an argot, but is included because it is a word used in the naming of the Self-defense Techniques; and therefore included for clarification.

Synonym(s):

Escape, Flight, Leap, Retreating

Opposite(s):

Squat
