Pattern Pointers:

Movements are connecting, therefore when blocking & punching lock back leg and lift heel (inhale once only throughout both movements).

When performing a hooking block drop hand or foot at the last moment of impact.

Hold kick for a second and then strike the palm with the front elbow.

Back knuckle fist faces upwards.

Upper arm – thumb level with eyes at the moment of impact.

Lower arm – Outer forearm rest above solar plexus, small finger joint one inch from elbow.

Body half facing.

One Step Sparring (Ilbo Matsoki)

In all cases the attacker lines up and attacks from the ready stance.  The attack is a middle section obverse punch in all cases and is repeated on each side. 

As the attack sequence is identical throughout 1 step sparring, only the defense movements are documented.

The Attacker is positioned at A facing the Defender at B.

Number 5 – Outerforearm block / Double Punch

1.       Step forwards towards A into sitting stance whilst executing a middle outward block with the outer forarm to the attackers outer forearm.
