Situation

You are in a right neutral bow (facing 12:00H) (ready position) with your right arm in a wide vertical blocking position (on the right edge of your torso) (baiting) and your left hand, palm down (toward 6:00V), covering your groin area) (positioned cover), while the opponent (toward 12:00H) (facing 6:00H) delivers a left, step-through, straight, thrust punch to your upper torso or face area.

Note

Your arms at the start of this technique are positioned purposely wide in order to bait the opponent into punching you.

1)

Step your left foot (counter clockwise H) (toward 4:30H) (up the circle) into a right modified neutral bow (toward 10:30H) (stable base), while simultaneously delivering a right inward parrying block (toward 7:30H) to the outside of the opponent’s left elbow (close the centerline).  Immediately replace your right blocking arm with a left vertical outward parrying block (counter clockwise V) (toward 7:30H), palm open (margin for error) and toward you (toward 4:30H), to the outside of the opponent’s left elbow, while continuing the rotation of your right arm (counter clockwise V) (until 9:00V), in preparation for the next move (positioned cock).  Without any loss of motion from the previous moves, execute a right outward thrusting back-knuckle (major) (toward 12:00H) (cut the circle) to the opponent’s left inner rib area, while simultaneously settling into a right neutral bow (toward

Result

The opponent’s upper body should begin to bend forward and toward you (toward 4:30H), while the left arm attempts to cover the left rib area.

2)

Shift (counter clockwise) into a right modified wide kneel (toward 4:30H), while simultaneously raising your right foot (toward 12:00V), heel up (toward 12:00V) (positioned cock), while maintaining your left positioned check to the outside of the opponent’s left elbow.  Immediately deliver a right downward diagonal round-house kick (major) (toward 4:30V) to the back of the opponents right knee (complimentary angle), while simultaneously dropping your weight (toward 6:00V), by bending your left leg slightly (gravitational marriage).

Result

The opponent’s upper body should rotate slightly (clockwise) (facing 7:30H), while they drop to their left knee (downward and toward 6:00V).

3)

Retract your right foot (toward 4:30H), executing a cross out and cover (toward 4:30H).
