Situation
|
You are in a normal stance (facing 12:00H) with both of your arms at your side (toward 6:00V), while the opponent (at 12:00H) (facing 6:00H) executes a right step through (toward 6:00H) with a right thrusting club (toward 6:00H) to your upper body or face area.
|
1a)
|
Step forward (toward 12:00H) with your left foot into a left neutral bow (facing 12:00H) (stable base) with a left thrusting inward block (toward 1:30H) to outside of the opponent's right arm (meet the attack) (toward 9:00V), while cocking (toward 12:00V) your right arm to a right chambered position, palm up (toward 12:00V), in preparation for the next move.
|
Note
|
Your left foot should end up on the outside of the opponent's right foot (positioned cover), but not beyond the opponent's right heel.
|
Result
|
The opponent's upper body and arms (angle of deflection) should begin to rotate (counter clockwise) to your right (toward 3:00H).
|
1b)
|
Rotate forward (counter clockwise H) into a left forward bow (facing 12:00H) with a right thrusting inward elbow strike (toward 12:00H), palm down (toward 6:00V), to the opponent's right ribcage area (major), while simultaneously maintaining the position of your left arm (positioned check). Immediately after making contact with the opponent, allow your right elbow to travel through the target area (toward 10:30H), while simultaneously allowing your left open hand to shift (toward 6:00H) over your right shoulder (positioned cover), palm facing to your right (toward 4:30H) and fingers upward (toward 12:00V).
|
Result
|
The opponent's body should be forced to rotate forward (clockwise H) (facing 6:00H) and bend (toward 6:00V) forward (toward 6:00H) at the waist, exposing the opponent's head area, while both the opponent's hands begin to drop the club (towards 6:00V) in an attempt to cover the right side of their ribcage area.
|
2a)
|
Without any loss of motion from the previous moves, right step through forward (toward 11:00H) into a left transitory reverse bow (toward 5:00H) with the continued (counter clockwise H) arc of your right arm through and past the opponent's ribcage area (toward 10:30H), while simultaneously maintaining the position of your left open hand, in preparation for the next motion (positioned cock).
|
2b)
|
Immediately, rotate (counter clockwise H) into a left transitory neutral bow (toward 5:00H) with the shift (counter clockwise H) (toward 3:00H) of your right open hand onto the outside (toward 9:00H) of the opponent's right arm, palm against the opponent's forearm (facing 3:00V) and fingers pointing upward (toward 12:00V). Complete the rotation (counter clockwise H) of your body and settle (toward 6:00V) into a left neutral bow (facing 5:00H) with a left thrusting outward elbow strike (toward 3:00H) to the opponent's right temple area (minor), palm facing downward (toward 6:00V), while simultaneously maintaining the press against the outside of the opponent's right arm with your right open hand (pressing check).
|
Note
|
The right hand should make contact with the opponent's right outer arm slightly before the contact of the left outward elbow strike.
|
Result
|
The opponent's upper body and head should begin to bend backward and to their left side (toward 4:30H) (toward 10:30V) with their left arm beginning to rise (toward 12:00V) in an attempt to cover the temple area, while their right arm is prevented from moving by the press of your right hand.
|
3a)
|
Execute a hop switch (counter clockwise H) into a right neutral bow (facing 5:00H) with the execution of a right, thrusting, horizontal, inward heel-palm strike (toward 3:00H), fingers facing forward (toward 3:00V) and palm facing to your left (toward 3:00H), to the opponent's right side of jaw (minor), while simultaneously shifting your left arm downward (toward 6:00V), converting it into a outward (toward 3:00H) pressing check, palm downward (toward 6:00V), to the outside (toward 9:00H), back (toward 4:30H) of the opponent's right upper forearm area, as you settle (towards 6:00V) into your right neutral bow (facing 5:00 H).
|
Note
|
The inward heel-palm strike should make contact with your opponent as you settle (stable base) into your stance.
|
Result
|
The opponent's head should be thrust to their left (toward 3:00H), but prevented from moving very much by the next move.
|
3b)
|
Immediately from the previous move, allow your right four fingers to "hook" under the opponent's jaw (towards 6:00V), as you draw your right foot backward (toward 1:00H) into a right 45 degree cat stance (facing 5:00H), while simultaneously executing a left pressing check (toward 6:00V) to the opponent's back (toward 5:00H) away from you (opposing forces). Without any loss of motion, lower (anchor) (toward 6:00V) your right elbow while simultaneously continuing to press against the opponent's back area (opposing forces) with your left arm/hand, using the opponent's upper body as a fulcrum, to create a neck lock, head facing upward (toward 12:00V).
|
Note
|
The settle of your stance, the press of your left arm/hand, and the anchoring of your right arm/elbow should all be synced such that they all finish their movements at the same time.
|
Tip
|
If any directional adjustment of the stance is required or desired, such as to achieve optimal striking angle for the next move, this should be accomplished with this series of movements.
|
Result
|
The opponent's upper body and head should be forced further backward (toward 12:00H) (toward 12:00V), exposing the chin area.
|
Note
|
The opponent should not be forced to bend so far backward (toward 12:00H) as to preclude the execution of the next maneuvers. Rather, the object of the backward motion should be focused towards maintaining control of the the opponent's zones via the neck lock as opposed to the backward bend of the opponent's upper body.
|
4)
|
Execute a right front scoop kick (toward 5:00H), to the opponent's groin area (minor), while continuing to maintain control of the opponent with both your arms/hands.
|
Result
|
The opponent's body should be forced upward (toward 12:00V) and forward (toward 6:00H) but prevented from moving very much by the continued pressure of the neck lock and pressing check.
|
5)
|
Immediately replant your right foot (toward 6:00V) (toward 5:00H) (gauge) with a settle (toward 6:00V) into a right neutral bow (facing 5:00H) as you simultaneously execute a right, looping (on a 12:00V - 6:00V / 1:00H - 5:00H rotation), inverted four finger thrust (in the shape of the crane), fingers facing 5:00H), to opponent's groin area (toward 5:00H) (toward 2:00V) (minor) while shifting your left hand up (towards 12:00V) into a positional check, palm facing away from you (toward 5:00H) and finger pointing upward (toward 12:00V).
|
Note
|
Immediately after executing the right scoop kick, release the lock to the opponent's neck allowing them to bend forward (toward 6:00V) (toward 5:00H) aiding in the execution of the right finger strike, by exposing the groin area.
|
Result
|
Opponent should begin to bend forward (toward 5:00H) (toward 6:00V) as both hands begin to cover the groin area, collapsing to the ground (toward 6:00V) (toward 5:00H), face downward (toward 6:00V).
|
6)
|
Retract (toward 12:00V) (toward 12:00H) your right arm to a right vertical blocking position (positioned cover), while simultaneously lowering (toward 6:00V) your left arm to your left solar plexus area (positioned cover), palm forward (toward 5:00H) as you cross out and cover (toward 11:00H).
