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 left step through (toward 6:00H) with a left straight thrust punch (toward 6:00H) to your face area.

1)

Step forward (toward 1:00H) with your right foot into a transitory right forward bow (toward 12:00H) (stable base) with a right inward parry (toward 10:30H) to outside of the opponent's left punching arm, allowing the punch to pass safely by your left side.  Without any loss of motion, raise your left arm (toward 12:00V) to an extended outward blocking position to the outside of the opponent’s left arm, replacing your right hand, while simultaneously raising your right hand (toward 12:00V) delivering a right vertical two-finger slice (insert) to the opponent’s left eye (minor), palm away from you (toward 12:00H), continuing the motion until your right arm is extended above the opponent’s head (positioned cock), palm up (toward 12:00V), in preparation for the next move.  Immediately, shift (counter clockwise) and settle (toward 6:00V) into a horse (facing 9:00H) with a right downward (toward 6:00V) hand-sword to the top of the first vertebrae of the opponent’s spin (major), while maintaining your other defenses (positioned check).

Note

Your right foot should end up on the outside of the opponent’s left foot (positioned cover), but not beyond the opponent’s left heel.

The actual path of travel of your right arm starts as a parry and then is raised straight up.  But, the path of travel, for your right hand starts as a parry, then creates a small vertical counter clockwise loop (using your wrist as the pivot point) to execute the finger slice (at the forward apex of the loop), and then continues the circle until palm up (at the top apex of the loop).

Result

The opponent's body should be forced slightly down (toward 6:00V) with the hands attempting to cover the eyes.

2)

Immediately, Shift forward (clockwise H) (toward 12:00H) into a right forward bow with a left thrusting straight elbow strike (toward 12:00H) to the opponent's left ribcage (major), while simultaneously shifting (toward 6:00V) your right hand to the outside of the opponent’s left arm (positioned check), replacing your left arm.

Result

The opponent's lower abdominal area should be force back (toward 12:00H), bending slightly at the waist while the left arm is dropped to cover the left ribcage area.

Option

You may need to push-drag forward (toward 12:00H) (gauge) with the execution of the left elbow strike, depending upon the length of the opponent’s arms.

3)

Step your right foot (toward 3:00H) into a right front twist (facing 9:00H) with the raising (toward 12:00 of your right hand to deliver a right vertical two-finger slice to the opponent’s left eye, palm forward (toward 12:00H), continuing the motion and converting it into an arching (clockwise V) motion until over the right shoulder (positioned cock), palm forward (toward 9:00H), while simultaneously raising (toward 12:00V) your left arm to a vertical blocking position (positioned cover), palm toward you (toward 3:00H), replacing your right hand.

Result

The opponent's head should be forced back (toward 12:00H) with the left hand beginning to cover the left eye.

4)

Unwind (counter clockwise H) into a right transitory neutral bow (toward 9:00H) with a right inward (toward 6:00H) downward diagonal (toward 7:30V) hammer-fist to the opponent’s left kidney area (major), while, without any loss of motion, delivering a right roundhouse kick (toward 6:00H) to the opponent’s right kidney area (major).

Note

The hammer-fist should be executed at the first part of the rotation, while the roundhouse kick should be executed at the last part of the rotation.  But, both strikes should be executed as part of the same rotation.

Option

There is a very high degree of probability that the opponent’s right elbow may be naturally blocking the right kidney.  If so, divert the strike to another target (such as the left back of knee).

Result

The opponent's body should be forced forward (toward 6:00H) and collapse to the ground (body on the 6:00H – 12:00H line), face down (toward 6:00V).

5)

Without replanting the right foot forward (toward 3:00H), cross out and cover (toward 3:00H).
