Inside-Downward, Palm-Up Block Sequence

•it contrasts elementary maneuvers to other maneuver scenarios

•it contrasts only single beat timing (1-in-1) to other maneuver timings

•it contrasts using front then front weapons to using other weapon scenarios

•it contrasts defense then offense to other response scenarios

•it contrasts using only major maneuvers to other maneuver combinations

•it contrasts using only closed hand maneuvers to other weapon formations

•it contrasts only backward maneuvering to other foot maneuvering directions

•it contrasts splitting step-thru elemental components to other foot maneuver scenarios
