| d) | Rotate backward (counter-clockwise H) returning to a right neutral bow (facing 12:00H) with a right, thrusting, vertical, four finger poke (major) (toward 12:00H), palm facing to the left (toward 9:00V), at rib level, while simultaneously retracting your left open hand (toward 6:00H) into a left chambered position, palm up (toward 12:00V). |
2)
| a) | Step forward, with your left foot (toward 12:00H), into a left neutral bow (facing 12:00H) with a left, thrusting, inward block (toward 1:30H) (major), while simultaneously retracting your right hand (toward 6:00H) into a right chambered positioned, palm up (toward 12:00V). |
| b) | Execute a left, hammering outward, downward, diagonal hand-sword (toward 12:00H / 7:30V) (minor), while simultaneously settling (toward 6:00V) into your left neutral bow (facing 12:00H). |

3)
| a) | Draw your left foot backward (toward 6:00H) toward your right foot into a left 45 degree cat (facing 12:00H), while simultaneously retracting both of your fists with palms facing each-other (toward 6:00H), to your right side, at hip level. |
Note: The right fist closes to a right chambered position, palm up (toward 12:00V), while your left fist completes its retraction ending horizontally cocked across your lower abdomen, palm down (toward 6:00V), left fist positioned directly on top of the right fist (a.k.a."cup and saucer position").
| b) | Step your left foot to your left (toward 9:00H) into a left, offset, fighting horse (facing 9:00H), while simultaneously executing a left, vertical, outward block (toward 6:00H) (major) with a right, thrusting, straight punch (toward 9:00H) (major). |
Note: The offset, fighting horse is positioned such that the feet are offset aligned (toe-heel alignment - like a neutral bow), both feet and body point directly perpendicular to the Point of Reference (like a horse, but with the Point of Reference directly to the side), and with the head turned to look at the Point of Reference (where an imaginary opponent would be - like a neutral bow).

Note: The left fist completes its retraction into a left chambered position, palm up (toward 12:00V), while your right fist completes its retraction ending horizontally cocked across your lower abdomen, palm down (toward 6:00V), right fist positioned directly on top of the left fist (a.k.a."cup and saucer position").
Note: The during the retraction of the right foot the left foot should be simultaneously rotated (counter-clockwise H) until on a 45 degree angle (on a 10:30H / 4:30H line) to create proper cat stance foot positioning.
| b) | Step your right foot to your right (toward 3:00H) into a right, offset, fighting horse (facing 3:00H), while simultaneously executing a right, vertical, outward block (toward 6:00H) (major) with a left, thrusting, straight punch (toward 3:00H) (major). |
Note: The offset, fighting horse is positioned such that the feet are offset aligned (toe-heel alignment - like a neutral bow), both feet and body point directly perpendicular to the Point of Reference (like a horse, but with the Point of Reference directly to the side), and with the head is turned to look at the Point of Reference (where an imaginary opponent would be - like a neutral bow).
| c) | Execute a right straight thrust punch (toward 3:00H) (major), at chin level, while simultaneously retracting your left fist (toward 9:00H) to your left upper chest region, palm facing upward (toward 12:00V) and knuckles facing to your right (toward 3:00H). |
| d) | Execute a left straight thrust punch (toward 3:00H) (major) at chin level, while simultaneously retracting your right arm (toward 9:00H) to your right shoulder region, palm facing toward your left (toward 12:00H). |
Note: Your right knuckles should try to keep relative line of sight towards 3:00H.
| e) | Execute a right, snapping, vertical punch (toward 3:00H) (at chin level), simultaneously with a right, snapping, side kick (toward 3:00H) (at shin level), while also retracting your left fist (toward 9:00H) to a left chambered position, palm up (toward 12:00V). |
5)
| a) | Draw your left foot toward your right foot (toward 3:00H), into a left 45 degree cat stance (facing 12:00H), while simultaneously retracting both of your fists with palms facing each-other (toward 6:00H), to your right side. |
Note: The right fist completes its retraction into a right chambered position, palm up (toward 12:00V), while your left fist completes its retraction ending horizontally cocked across your lower abdomen, palm down (toward 6:00V), left fist positioned directly on top of the right fist (a.k.a."cup and saucer position").
Note: The during the retraction of the left foot the right foot should be simultaneously rotated (clockwise H) until on a 45 degree angle (on a 1:30H / 7:30H line) to create proper cat stance foot positioning.
| b) | Step your left foot backwards (toward 5:30H) into a left modified rear twist stance (facing 6:00H). Immediately after stabilizing your base, rotate to your left (counter-clockwise H) into a left neutral bow (facing 6:00H), while simultaneously executing a left, hammering, downward block (major) (toward 3:00H) with a right, thrusting, inward block (major) (toward 4:30H) (a.k.a universal block). |
| c) | Shift forward (counter-clockwise H) into a left forward bow (facing 6:00H) with a left, thrusting, upward block (major) (toward 12:00V / 6:00H), simultaneously with a right, hammering, forward, diagonally upward, hammer-fist (major) (toward 6:00H / 1:30V). |
Note: The hammer-fist realistically travels on a vertical rotation downward and away from your body on a perpendicular axis (counter-clockwise V).
| d) | Shift backward (clockwise H) into a left neutral bow (facing 6:00H) with left, overhead claw (major) (toward 6:00H / 6:00V), palm forward (toward 6:00H), simultaneously with a right, outward back-knuckle (major) (toward 7:30H), at head level. |
Note: The shift should be timed such that it completes at the same time as back-knuckle. Also, the outward back-knuckle should be timed such that it replaces the overhead claw's spacial position (at temple level) as the overhead claw descends to just below chin level (i.e. finger tips just below chin level).
| e) | Execute a left outward back-knuckle (major) (toward 4:30H), at head level, while simultaneously retracting your right fist (toward 6:00H) to your left side, at lower chest level, palm facing you (toward 12:00H). |
| f) | Execute a right outward back-knuckle (major) (toward 7:30H), at head level, while simultaneously retracting your left fist (toward 6:00H) to your right side, at lower chest level, palm facing you (toward 12:00H). |
6)
| a) | Step your right foot backwards (toward 1:30H) into a right modified rear twist stance (facing 12:00H). Immediately after stabilizing your base, rotate to your right (clockwise H) into a right neutral bow (facing 12:00H), while simultaneously executing a right, hammering, downward block (major) (toward 3:00H) with a left, thrusting, inward block (major) (toward 1:30H) (a.k.a. universal block). |
| b) | Shift forward (clockwise H) into a right forward bow (facing 12:00H) with a right, thrusting, upward block (major) (toward 12:00V / 12:00H), simultaneously with a left, hammering, forward, diagonally upward, hammer-fist (major) (toward 12:00H / 1:30V). |
Note: The hammer-fist realistically travels on a vertical rotation downward and away from your body on a perpendicular axis (clockwise V).
| c) | Shift backward (counter-clockwise H) into a right neutral bow (facing 12:00H) with right, overhead claw (major) (toward 12:00H / 6:00V), palm forward (toward 12:00H), simultaneously with a left, outward back-knuckle (major) (toward 10:30H), at head level. |
Note: The shift should be timed such that it completes at the same time as back-knuckle. Also, the outward back-knuckle should be timed such that it replaces the overhead claw's spacial position (at temple level) as the overhead claw descends to just below chin level (i.e. finger tips just below chin level).
| d) | Execute a right outward back-knuckle (major) (toward 1:30H), at head level, while simultaneously retracting your left fist (toward 6:00H) to your right side, at lower chest level, palm facing you (toward 6:00H). |

7)
| a) | From your previous position, step your right foot (toward 10:30H) into a right modified reverse bow (facing 4:30H), while maintaining the position of you arms (body fusion). Immediately after stabilizing your base, rotate (counter-clockwise H) into a left neutral bow (facing 4:30H) with a right, double factor, inside downward, block (minor) (toward 1:30H), palm up (toward 12:00V) - while simultaneously cocking your left fist (toward 7:30H) to your right hip region, palm up (toward 12:00V). Without any loss of motion, settle (toward 6:00V) into a left neutral bow (facing 4:30H) with a left, hammering, downward block (major) (toward 1:30H), while simultaneously retracting your right fist (toward 10:30H) to a right chambered position, palm up (toward 12:00V). |
Note: The above moves should be executed to maximize torque for the downward block with emphasis on the left downward block (the major) not the inside, downward block (the minor).
| b) | Without any loss of motion from the previous move, execute a left, thrusting, inverted, vertical, back-knuckle (major) (toward 7:30H). |
| c) | Shift forward (counter-clockwise H) into a left forward bow (facing 4:30H) with a right, thrusting, straight punch (major) (toward 4:30H), at solar plexus level, while simultaneously retracting your left fist (toward 10:30H) to a left chambered position, palm up (toward 12:00V). |
| d) | Execute a right, snapping, step through, ball kick (major) (toward 4:30H), at groin level, with a left, thrusting straight punch (major) (toward 4:30H), at solar plexus level, simultaneously with the retraction of your right fist (toward 10:30H) to a right chambered position, palm up (toward 12:00V). Without any loss of motion from the previous moves, plant (toward 6:00V) your right foot forward (toward 4:30H) into a modified right forward bow (facing 4:30H). |
| e) | Immediately after stabilizing your base, shift (counter-clockwise H) into a right fighting horse (facing 4:30H) with a right, thrusting, vertical punch (major) (toward 4:30H), at rib height, while simultaneously retracting your left fist (toward 10:30H) to a left chambered position, palm up (toward 12:00V). |
Note: The vertical punch should be executed such that the forearm remains relatively parallel to the ground with the elbow being backed up by your ribs.
Note: The rotation into the fighting horse should also rotate the front leg, creating a buckling effect. This buckle would be directed against an opponent's forward knee/shin - thus creating a two-in-one timing with the punch.
8)
| a) | From your previous position, step your right foot (toward 7:30H) into a right neutral bow (facing 7:30H) with a left, double factor, inside downward block (minor) (toward 10:30H), palm up (toward 12:00V), while simultaneously cocking your right fist (toward 4:30H) to your left hip region, palm up (toward 12:00V). Without any loss of motion, settle (toward 6:00V) into a right neutral bow (facing 7:30H) with a right, hammering, downward block (major) (toward 10:30H), while simultaneously retracting your left fist (toward 1:30H) to a left chambered position, palm up (toward 12:00V). |
Note: The above moves should be executed to maximize torque for the downward block.
| b) | Without any loss of motion from the previous move, execute a right, thrusting, inverted, vertical, back-knuckle (major) (toward 4:30H). |

| d) | Execute a left, snapping, step through, ball kick (major) (toward 7:30H), at groin level, with a right, thrusting straight punch (major) (toward 7:30H), at solar plexus level, simultaneously with the retraction of your left fist (toward 1:30H) to a left chambered position, palm up (toward 12:00V). Without any loss of motion from the previous moves, plant (toward 6:00V) your left foot forward (toward 7:30H) into a modified right forward bow (facing 7:30H). |
| e) | Immediately after stabilizing your base, shift (clockwise H) into a left fighting horse (facing 7:30H) with a left, thrusting, vertical punch (major) (toward 7:30H), at rib height, while simultaneously retracting your right fist (toward 1:30H) to a right chambered position, palm up (toward 12:00V). |
Note: The vertical punch should be executed such that the forearm remains relatively parallel to the ground with the elbow being backed up by your ribs.
Note: The rotation into the fighting horse should also rotate the front leg, creating a buckling effect. This buckle would be directed against an opponent's forward knee/shin - thus creating a two-in-one timing with the punch.

| d) | Without any loss of motion, settle (toward 6:00V) into the left neutral bow (facing 1:30H) with a left, hammering, overhead claw (major), palm forward (toward 1:30H), at face level. |
Note: The above move is executed by extending the elbow, lowering the strike with the shoulder, and settling into the stance - simultaneously. With each motion listed in the order of its contribution to the power generation of the strike respectively.
Note: Once the right arm is chambered at the beginning of this section it maintains the same relative position throughout the execution of the entire section.
18)
| a) | Shift forward (counter-clockwise H) into a left forward bow (facing 1:30H) with the execution of a right, thrusting straight punch (major) (toward 1:30H), at solar plexus level, while simultaneously cocking your left arm (toward 7:30H) to the left shoulder region, fist closed and palm facing forward (toward 1:30H). |
Note: The left arm should maintain its vertical alignment and move simultaneously with the body's rotation (i.e. body fusion).
| b) | Rotate backward (clockwise H) into a left neutral bow (facing 1:30H) with a left, hammering, vertical, inside forearm strike (major) (toward 3:00H), while simultaneously retracting your right fist (toward 7:30H) to a right chambered position, palm up (toward 12:00V). |
| 19) |
| Left step through reverse (toward 7:30H) into a right neutral bow (facing 1:30H) with a right, hammering, inward overhead elbow (major) (toward 1:30H / 6:00V), while simultaneously retracting your left fist (toward 7:30H) to a left chambered position, palm up (toward 12:00V). |
| 20) |
| Right step through reverse (toward 7:30H) into a left neutral bow (facing 1:30H) with a left, hammering, inward overhead elbow (major) (toward 1:30H / 6:00V), while simultaneously retracting your right fist (toward 7:30H) to a right chambered position, palm up (toward 12:00V). |
| 21) |
| Step your left foot backward (toward 9:00H) into a modified right twist (facing 1:30H) but with the Point of Reference toward 12:00H). Immediately after planting the left foot, rotate (counter-clockwise H) into a horse stance (facing 12:00H) with a right, inward, horizontal, elbow sandwich (major) (toward 12:00H), at jaw level. |
22)
Note: The remaining moves are executed as an isolation.
| a) | Cock both open hands (left over right) (left toward 3:00H) (right toward 9:00H) across your body (parallel to both your body and the ground) at the upper chest level, palms down (toward 6:00V). Immediately, reverse the path of the previous moves, executing double, thrusting outward elbows (major) (left toward 9:00H) (right toward 3:00H), palms down (toward 6:00V), while simultaneously transitioning your open hands to closed fists. |
Note: The closing of the hands should be coordinated with the execution of the outward elbows such that each move is completed simultaneously with one another (synced).
| b) | Execute a left upward elbow (major) (toward 12:00H / 12:00V), palm facing to the right (toward 3:00V), with a right backward elbow (major) (toward 6:00H / 3:00V), palm up (toward 12:00V). |
| c) | Bring both arms to a meditating horse (facing 12:00H) by placing your left open hand (on a 1:30V - 7:30V line) over your right fist (on a 10:30V - 4:30V line) parallel to your body in front of you, at chin level. |
Closing salutation…
