Attacking and Defending

(One step consists of counter attacks to a single punch in a walking stance. All attacks start from parallel ready stance, first on the right side then on the left side. Counter attacks to punches from either side must be practiced.)

The defender must execute efficient blocking or evading techniques followed by counter attacks consisting of a combination of hand or foot striking techniques or take down techniques. Regardless if the defender is to evade or take down their partner they should always follow through to “finish off’ their attacker

  • It is vital that all techniques are correct and focused on the proper target.
  • Proper distance and control must be maintained.
  • All kicks and punches must be fully extended to the target without striking.

           Therefore demonstrating the exponent’s proficiency and control as expected of their grade
