- Look left. Step out to your left into hidari kokutsu dachi
(left back stance), while performing a hidari tettsui otoshi-uke
(left hammer downward block). By dropping into the low back stance,
one adds acceleration to the downward blocking technique.
- Step into migi zenkutsu dachi (right forward stance), and
perform a migi jun-zuki (right lunge punch). The unwinding of
the body from the back stance into forward stance accelerates the
lunge punch.
- Retract the right leg and turn to the right 180 degrees ending
up in migi zenkutsu dachi, and perform a migi gandan barai.
The downward block is accelerated by the forceful and fluid twisting
of the hips from the previous stance.
- Draw the right foot in a half step and turn the hips to the left
such that you are now in shizen hontai (normal natural
stance) about 45-90 degrees to the left of your zenkutsu dachi, and
pull your right fist into kamae. Perform migi age-zuki (right
rising punch) then execute migi tettsui otoshi-uke (right
hammer downward block), twisting the upper part of the body to the
right about 30-45 degrees in order to add more power to the tettsui.
The feet however remain in shizen hontai and the knees bend into
each other slightly to allow the upper portion of the body to turn
with more power, while the feet remain stationary. The idea here is
that you are blocking two consecutive punches from your opponent;
one that is at the jodan level, and the second to the chudan level.

(right palmer block). Place the left hand (palm up) over the right
hand (palm down) in preparation for the nukite (spear hand)
strike. This is an intermediate stance and should be immediately
followed by the next stance.
- Step forward and twist the hips into kiba dachi (straddle
stance), while performing a hidari nukite (left spear hand).
A kiba dachi is also referred to as shikoashi (side viewing).

cross stance), while placing the right hand (palm up) over the left
hand (palm down) in preparation for the nukite strike. This is an
