The inward, overhead elbow sequence is as follows:
| 1) | Step through reverse into a right neutral bow with a right, hammering, inward overhead elbow, while simultaneously retracting the left arm to a left chambered position |
| 2) | Repeat the sequence on the opposite side (toward 1:30H) |
| 3) | Repeat the sequence on the opposite side (toward 1:30H) |
The obvious information derived from this sequence is:
•it retreats
•it utilizes only the neutral bow stance
•it demonstrates execution with the front weapon (offensively)
•it shows both sides of the sequence (opposites)
•both sides of the sequence are execution without change of Point of Reference
Analyzing this sequence further exposes the following information:
•it steps onto a minor angle (instead of a major angle) - retreating
Inward, Overhead Elbow Specific Information
The obvious information derived from the Elbow is:
•it is offensive
•it is executed to close range
•it emphasizes the power principle of gravitational marriage
•it uses the hammering Method of Execution (vertically)
•it is executed on a linear path of travel (vertically)
Analyzing this maneuver further exposes the following information:
•it demonstrates the reverse circular path demonstrated in the Push-down Sequence
