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 straight thrust punch (toward 6:00H) to your face area.

1a)

Step backward (toward 6:00H) with your left foot into a right transitory 45 degree cat (facing 12:00H) (distance gauge) with a left inward parry (toward 12:00H) to outside of the opponent's right arm, while simultaneously delivering a right inward middle-knuckle strike (toward 12:00H) (counter clockwise H) (minor) to the opponent’s right rib or sternum area, palm facing to the left (toward 9:00H).

Result

The opponent’s right punch should be allowed to pass to the right of your head, while their forward momentum is stopped by the reaction to the middle-knuckle strike.

1b)

Reverse the path of the previous strike (elastic recoil), delivering a right thrusting outward hand-sword strike (toward 12:00H) to the opponent’s right ribs (minor), palm down (toward 6:00V), while using the contact with the outside of the opponent’s to apply pressure (toward 12:00H), detaining any significant movement of the opponent’s right arm.

Result

The opponent’s body should arch backward (toward 12:00H), while their right arm attempts to cover the rib area, but is prevented by the pressure applied to the opponent’s right elbow area.

1c)

Without any loss of motion, step forward into right neutral bow (toward 12:00H) with a right inward elbow strike (minor) (toward 11:00H) to the opponent’s sternum, palm down (toward 6:00V), while continuing to apply pressure (toward 12:00H) to the outside of the opponent’s right arm.
Note: The hand-sword to elbow strikes should be executed using ratcheting.

Note

The elbow strike should be timed so as to be maximized by the step and settle into the right neutral bow (confluence of forces).

Result

The opponent's body should be forced to arch forward (toward 5:00H) and be forced backward (toward 11:00H).

2)

Immediately, execute a right front scoop kick (minor) (toward 1:30V) (toward 5:00H) to the opponent’s groin area, while continuing to apply pressure (toward 12:00H) to the outside of the opponent’s right arm.  Simultaneously, open your left hand, converting your right arm and hand into a right cover, palm down (toward 6:00V).

Result

The backward momentum of the opponent’s body should be stopped by the opposite force of the scoop kick, while the opponent’s right arm is still prevented from any significant movement by the pressure or your left hand.

3)

Plant your foot backward (toward 5:00H) into a left neutral bow (toward 11:00H), while simultaneously retracting (toward 12:00V) your right hand to your left solar plexus (positioned cover), palm forward (toward 11:00H).  Immediately after planting your right foot, execute a left thrusting hand-sword (toward 11:00H) (minor) to the opponent’s throat area, palm down (toward 6:00V).

Result

The opponent's upper body and head should be force backward (toward 11:00H), collapsing to the ground (toward 6:00V), face up (toward 12:00V).

4)

Retract (toward 5:00H) your left arm to a left vertical blocking position (positioned cover), palm to the right (toward 1:00H), while maintaining your other defenses.  Immediately, cross out and cover (toward 5:00H).
